THE dust has settled on the April 28 general election with the UNC-led coalition winning 26 seats while the PNM got 13 and the newcomer Tobago People’s Party (TPP), two.

The TPP’s success in securing the two Tobago seats, in its first general election, raises questions about the role, if any, the party is likely to play in the new Kamla Persad-Bissessar administration.

Will the party join the UNC or will it seek an accommodation with the government to advance Tobago’s development on the issues for which it has been advocating?
