Well it’s politics time again. How you’re gonna vote now
WHY WAS THERE A “BUY” ELECTION IN ST.PHILLIPS NORTH ON MARCH 16,2026? NOW PARLIAMENT WOULD BE PROROGUED AND A GENERAL ELECTION DATE WOULD BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY.SO THERE WOULD BE HUGE SPENDING IN THAT AND OTHER CONSTITUENCIES AGAIN.WHAT A DAMN WASTE.SANTA CLAUS WOULD BE COMING TO TOWNS AGAIN IN HIS HEAVY RED SUIT.
I believe that word should be DISSOLUTION and not PROROGUE. The latter is for recess between Parliamentary sessions and Dissolution is when the life of a Parliament comes to an end before a general election.
