It makes the opposition, in front of the CSV, so real. The first state budget of Gambia 2 is extremely solid, with a deficit, but with high investments. What one can criticize is that, to some extent, this is exaggerated with the investments and that not enough has been taken advantage of to give something to the side. It should be borne in mind, that although CSV was talking of “sovereign fund”, it was Gambia 1 that placed him. Since then, 50 million have been placed in that fund every year. Cockroaches, especially where 2018 is likely to end with a black zero!
“…With this budget, the government starts fully…”
was the general tenor of majority opinion right after the presentation of the budget. And because the government consists of three parties, the leaders have to be justified in one way or another: for this route, social cohesion is important, for which blue is the competitiveness and for the green the sustainability.
Alone the free childcare allows the state to cost 421 million this year, the parental leave of 237; the Ministry of Education receives 2.5 billion, over 2 billion also for Minister Bausch. This is to a large extent about figures that repeat the following year, which can therefore also hypothesize the budget after 2019.

nyway! It could have put a few million more on its side, and even this year it was complicated for the CSV to be able to ride a real attack. Citizens’ benefits are simply too great: free public transport, free nurseries, € 100 more for the minimum wage. A lot of people are really helped, and you run the risk of being ridiculed if you get hit with the stockings. Still, people are getting closer to the skin than the shirt.
The 2019 Budget Can Forget the Christian Social! There’s not much music for them there. This is the case with other parties that were in opposition to a CSV government: if the money comes, the Finance Minister will run!
That was no different at Juncker and Frieden, and the voters expressed their thanks in the constituency. Hope is laid for the next year, when it should be less economically economical in the international environment; then Gramegna’s ciphers could hit the head bun. From the country Brexit can benefit profusely, but nobody should think as if London’s financial institution is not already working on a “B” plan, in a few years’ time to be on tight terms again; why did the Finance Minister recently at the ALFI (Association of Investment Funds) understand quite clearly that one should change something about the tax subscription ?! Moreover, how much the SOPARFI will develop in the Grand Duchy! Even for that reason alone, it would have been more difficult not to make the split just as full this year.
One thing I have to say though: the “oak egg” on the spit is Mukkefuck. 1 cent more on liter of gasoline, 2 cents more on diesel, hopefully none of the politicians at least believe that this will stop tank tourism ?! The differential vis-à-vis the foreign country will remain under the same heading. It’s sprite like tobacco: we deserve some money, and so it must be. Just a maximum of 2.5 million will be required to bring these houses onto the Accounts this year, which made it clear that this tax has nothing to do with funding free public transport! Because of that …
