Firstly, did Grand Slam track pay y'all?
Secondly, there is no fight over who is the fastest woman alive. 10.54s is the time, she didn't clock it. Vogue ignited the debate by playing loose and daft with semantics. Her story's more interesting now. Write 2500 words about it now

"The last time Sha’Carri Richardson ignited this particular debate was in 2024, when online promotion of her Vogue magazine profile called her 'the fastest woman in the world,' enraging a lot of folks on a certain Caribbean island. But that all happened because… Sha’Carri was in Vogue.
She didn’t get there based on her spot in the all-time top-ten list, and there are plenty of other World champions who don’t end up on the covers of magazines. Sha’Carri garnered a splashy photoshoot and a 2,500-word feature in a mainstream publication because she’s interesting.

The Government can't pay salaries and allowances on time and hasn't paid suppliers and contractors for months. Money is clearly the problem. Yet, in the midst of this chaos, the UNC has unveiled fantastic plans to transform T&T into Dubai, complete with massive skyscrapers?
I STILL cannot believe that TT voted back in this government. Every single story that breaks from TT since April/May has been abyssal. I pray safety and protection for them
The National Insurance Board of Trinidad and Tobago (NIBTT) has provided Guardian Media with a breakdown showing how the proposed increase in National Insurance System (NIS) contributions will affect workers across all income levels.
Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo recently announced a phased 6 per cent increase , with a 3 per cent rise taking effect in January 2026 and another 3 per cent in January 2027, aimed at protecting the fund and ensuring its long-term sustainability.
The National Insurance Board of Trinidad and Tobago (NIBTT) says that while it understands the concerns of some citizens who will soon be required to contribute more to the National Insurance System (NIS), it believes the proposed increases are reasonable.
The NIBTT maintains that the adjustment is necessary to protect contributors’ benefits and ensure the long-term stability of the fund.
