Senior Jamaica Labour Party spokesman, Senator Marlon Morgan, is denouncing as false and desperate, an Instagram post by Opposition Leader, Mark Golding, in which he intimates that the issuance of traffic tickets is being driven by the government’s revenue projections.
In an Instagram post on Tuesday, Mr Golding question if there was any Jamaican who had gotten a traffic ticket for eating while driving, stopping to buy chicken or a lug nut.
He then said the government is projecting over a billion dollars in revenues from traffic tickets. He ended his post by saying “No “new taxes” but much More Taxes!”
Senator Morgan says the opposition leader’s post is seemingly trying to link the police’s enforcement of the road traffic laws to the government’s revenue projections is sending the wrong message to the public.
Morgan says the post by Mr. Golding was one of political expediency.
