Gas prices increased too high and too soon, Lovell says

36

The opposition is keeping pressure on the government regarding the recent increases in fuel at the pump.

Listen to UPP leader Harold Lovell here:

The Cabinet has decided that the prices of fuel at the pumps will remain unchanged for now – at $15.70 per gallon for gasoline and $15.50 per gallon for diesel – as Russia’s war against The Ukraine continues.

      • ERIC THE RED: YOU ARE SUCH AN IDIOT,
        YOU HAVE BEEN GIVING THIS NONSENSE POLL SINCE LAST YEAR.
        LAST YEAR.
        LET ME REPEAT LAST YEAR!
        NOW YOU SAY THAT THE POLL WAS TAKEN FROM MARCH 15 2022 TO 23 MARCH 2022.
        SO NOW YOU SAY THAT THE POLL WAS TAKEN LAST WEEK.
        SO WHERE DID YOU GET THE POLL NUMBERS FROM BEFORE LAST WEEK.

        YOU ARE SUCH A JACK ASS.

        IT IS FOR THAT REASON THAT GASTON HAS NOT SHOWN YOU THE REAL POLL NUMBERS.
        YOU CAN’T HANDLE IT!
        SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS THIS, YOU MESS UP!

        WHAT AN IDIOT!

          YOU ARE SUCH AN IDIOT!

  3. Can u recall Mr. Lovell that when you took office you promised that there are enough taxes on books so there is no need to introduce anymore…. Shortly afterwards, under UPP gas that had cost us $6.00+ per gallon reached to $16.00+. There was no war or anything much to impact the cost of gas then…. Why now are you so price conscious? A burnt child always dread the fire…. You as finance minister placed this country in misery during your tenure, hence the citizenry has dreaded you to take office again

    • You are all steering far from what’s going on in St. Kitts that is not even nearly an economic powerhouse. Tell us why this POWERHOUSE can’t do likewise.

        • TENMAN HUGHES even with the price per gallon in St. Kitts of $18.01, I am sure the average person in St. Kitts is not complaining as much as the average person in Antigua since the St. Kitts government appears to be more caring and has provided a variety of assistance to make life more bearable. They do not focus on duty free on cars only.

  5. Good morning to the one, three blind mice,
    Hmmmm, Just Saying, Smh. How many more monikers are you going to use? You’re sickening!

    • Keep guessing 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 u don’t even get an “E” for effort.

      Which UPP ambassador came to Antigua looking for 100 acres of beach front land to put down a chicken farm? And by the way the “ambassador” stayed in one of the most prestigious hotels, paid by TAXPAYERS.

      (At least you should correctly guess this one)
