Antigua Cabinet Takes Action to Place Unemployed Fathers in Jobs to Support Single Mothers and Children

13

CABINET NOTES: The Cabinet decided to ensure that unemployed fathers are placed in jobs—in the beautification groups and other employment—so that they may earn an income and provide financial support to their children with single mothers.

 Too many single mothers, the Cabinet determined, are unable to receive any or sufficient financial support for the children that have been fathered by unemployed males.

Fathers, the Cabinet reminded, have certain obligations imposed by law and the Administration intends to assist in making sure that those fathers earn an income from which court-ordered deductions can be made.

  1. Well! What a comedy of errors these clowns are? UPP had the MOMS program as a plan going forward,with the government putting a measly 1 million dollars into an account so mothers are not allowed to suffer with the youths as they wait for daddy to find work.
    With unemployment as bad as it has been in decades,all the failed thirty something projects by the Browne DAWG, all these misfits do is continue to pack the already overburdened public sector.
    When,pray tell,will they find sustainable employment for these unemployed fathers?
    Just jokers one and all. And so badminded! Because it was a UPP suggestion, the DAWG will try to dismiss it as foolish or unsustainable. He has no clue what to do, but wants to rubbish good ideas. No wonder they’re bribing UPP people to join ALP.

  2. @ Watching @……are you mad?
    Did you not read the headline said ” Antigua Cabinet Takes Action to Place Unemployed Fathers in Jobs to Support Single Mothers and Children”

    Why now would you ask “will they find sustainable employment for these unemployed fathers?

    Blind and dunce you be so ?

  3. @Slamdem,you’re the dunce and ass here.Probably a Labourite lacking the capacity for critical thinking.
    Did YOU read MY comments?
    Place unemployed fathers in what jobs? Idiot, the unemployment rate is as high as hell. Since you’re so bright,tell us what jobs they will be placing unemployed fathers in? Name any job other than packing the already overburdened public sector. Has it crossed your moronic mind that the reason these fathers are unemployed is because there are no jobs available? Of course not.
    Come now. You actually BELIEVE ANYTHING coming out of a gathering of these incompetent hoodlums?
    All these clowns do is make promises they never intend to keep to appease idiots like you.
    Wheel and come again, boss.

  4. why not encourage these fathers to MARRY these “single mothers”? Encourage the duly elected Leader of the Opposition to give these fathers a pep talk!

  5. @ Watching@ Ask yourself what you can do for your country not what your country can do for you.
    Have an ounce of faith you numb skull.
    Most of these fathers are lazzy asses anyway but still the gov is trying to help them and their families.
    You sound like a complete retard, the gov is trying, what more do you want from them, all you
    do is bash the gov, the gov not cleaning my drain, the not cutting the grass in from my yard ,the gov, always the government. People like you too NASTY AND LAZZY AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE A LIABILITY TO ANY GOVERNMENT NOT JUST HERE BUT ANYWHERE ON THIS PLANET. nO WONDER THE FOREIGNERS A COME AN TEAKE AWAY ALL THE JOBS AND THE WOMAN DEM AND THE WOMAN TEK AWAY THE MAN DEM CAUSE THE LOCALS TOO DYAM NASTY AND LAZZY BUT YOU READY TO BASH YA OWN DAM GOVERNMENT AND THE FOREIGNERS, GROW THE HELL UP AND TEK YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES.

  6. Imagine other people a come here and find work and the locals dem always crying out how dem nuh have work, can anyone else see something seriously wrong with these locals.
    Cant always depend on the gov to do everything, at least do your part in helping yourself.
    I came here and have a business and the locals lazzy, they coing late to work, they just come to work and eating breakfast, they absent without even a call to say they not coming.
    I now only hire Jamaicans, spanish or Guyanese, dem a hrd working people and serious bout working.

  7. I am Guyanese and came here years ago. I’ve been around many Antiguans for all these years, had a lot as friends. Now I have my own house and car and family, what do they have………………80% of them are the same way or worse, no progress.
    Work and finding jobs is not the problem, its the mindset of the individual is the problem cause I worked security for one year then resigned and still in my job, many things I had to go through but it paid off in the end.
    God helped those who try to help themselves, faith without works is dead, have to at least try, where there is a will there is a way.

  8. You will find the best way to alleviate that is mandatory DNA testing at birth….. Time enough for the single mothers to shut their dam legs….

  9. Woman can’t shut dem legs Crazy Horse, see what you name, Horse.
    If woman close dem legs, where will you go Horse????? where ???
    lol
    On a serious note though, Mandatory DNA testing makes good sense, excellent idea. That way nuff man will not be fooled and pressured by women to look other man pickney.

  10. @Slamden,an obvious Labourite, intent on swallowing everything these clowns say. Me,lazy? You should know what they saw about assumptions.
    The foreigners come here and get land and whatever because ALP brought them here,conduct interminable amnesties for votes to stay in power. Read,”For Your Eyes Only.” Idiots like will kiss ministers ass to get ahead,so you feel obligated to defend the incompetence.
    Have you had water lately? Do you drive on the roads? Have you seen St. Johns?
    I will bash this government or any other, if they fail to do what we hired them to do and the DAWG and his clowns are the most corrupt, vindictive, incompetent lot ever. Say what you want,I do not lack the objectivity you so clearly lack. This government is bankrupt of original ideas,and you can run you mouth like your Browne DAWG all you want,they will do nothing. Not all fathers are lazy as you so stupidly posited,unemployment is sky high BECAUSE of this government.
    Now we await your banal response

  11. These fathers will not want to work because the child support money they don’t want to pay will be deducted. Do you think some of the child support money is not being paid because these fathers cant pay? They are just wicked
