This country is a complete joke and all That are in control Abadi, Jubouri, etc., are just as corrupt as the rest. There are reasons why they keep pushing everything off. Think about it; they were asking for 80+ billion so they could stuff their pockets and we're "insulted" when they only got less than half. They will stall as long as They can, they really don't want change

It must be so embarrassing for Abadi and his crew who are actually trying to get something constructive done. They are like spoiled children who don't get what they want so they whine and cry and won't participate. I say pay for performance. These guys would have earned about 7 cents by now, minus cost of gas and food, yep what I thought, they all owe millions to the government for the free food and gas. 

Bunch of booger eating morons!!!

The Kurds seems to be the ones that's always holding things up.  Why are they so greedy??? Baghdad is trying to do everything (Adabi) to pass the budget and HCL but because of the Kurbs greed this process keeps dragging - I wish someone can force their hands to do the right thing......:butt-kicking:

This IS a shame. That means they didn't get a chance to vote on 'Law To Make Tumbleweed The Official Iraq Flower' and  'Law To Make Drinking Water Wet'. Hopefully those that DID show up got paid and shared some much needed time around the GOI water cooler. Pathetic fools.

Jubouri said in a statement that "delaying the adoption of the budget will cause a significant obstruction in the work of state institutions, especially in light of the current financial and economic situation, and will cause the growing market stagnation and slow trade, as well as political problems that will result from this delay." 
He stressed that "we all aspire to achieve more achievements and work to consolidate permanent stability through the preparation of economic and development conditions, and the need to look seriously and realistically to the conditions of citizens and work to improve the living conditions and service them, and the general budget is the most positive factors to achieve it." 
He called the Speaker of the House of Representatives all members of the Council to attend the session Thursday to vote on the budget and not to repeat the mistakes of the previous.
The reduction of the share of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq in the budget of 2018, a broad rejection of Kurdish political forces, where the government reduced Abbadi, last November, the share of the province in the budget this year from 17 to 12.6 percent. 
Sunni forces in the Iraqi parliament have also rejected the budget law for devoid of financial allocations for the reconstruction of the provinces that have been restored from state control and the return of displaced people.
