    People be aware Dominica and it’s people are sold to the devil all those deals and signing of paper this government is doing all over the world is bringing bad luck on us. Now they even want to take over the churches, so they will tell us when and how to worship.

    Zor sort eh. Death is one appointment we must all keep without knowing the day,the time nor the hour. So instead of playing the blaming game lets live every day as our last. There is no salvation in politics. Condolences to all of the greiving families and i must say those who lost their lives have lived a full 3 score and ten and beyond. Sleep on until we meet again.

    Let them workers talk. When the air craft crashed in Marigot and sun didn’t rise Drigo dat do them too.

    They chap up in Newtown killing the girl is drigo dat do dat

    They just kill in bawi Drigo dat do dat too

    Fond Cole so many murder

    Andy die in Roseau is Drigo

    None of those villages is labour own.

    It is so laughable when I see dem fools like them bloggers talking so much rubbish.

    But it’s ok to do it because it just make Dominicans hate UWP more and more.

    When a party is lead by a fool u expect only foolishness coming from the small amount of followers left.

    This is y they loosing supporters by the day including MP

    Every election they loosing a seat without election called

    Loreen then Tim now Issac

    The rest that remaining we don’t even want them cus they are politically contaminated

    None of them is worth their political salt if they have any

    They lacking in political substance. They add nothing of worth

    A Novice, drunk, mad, greedy…

      Boy people free to say what ever they want. Evil gets punished by evil and sometimes incentives people get in the way. Ever since that demonic labor party came in power is so we suffering in all kind of ways. I doh afraid to say it. Thumbs down me I don’t care. People usually hate the truth

        this is why our country can never go anywhere. Do you hear the nonsense argument you people are having? you would swear you are in primary school calling each other names, talking about who more this and that than the other. who more evil who not evil. I mean really? this is the discourse of grown ups? So because the man is in florida he cannot speak? If you went to germany does that mean you have NO say or not even allowed to have an opinion in the happenings of your country? americans leave america to live elsewhere but they are still expected to have a say in the governments action, why? because they are Americans. so now what does this death have to do with politics? answer this in all seriousness. God bless the soul of this lady. may she rest in peace. Dominicans you need a wake up call. Maria was not enough.
