    Look, carnival in July!! How many times did parliament sit last year? I rest my case. Democracy only on paper. Skerrit must go, the president must go and the evil speaker must go for Dominica to return to democracy.

    Where The Wicked Rule The People Mourn
    This DLP is a Wicked and Evil Party.

    The Police and the band played their part signaling the commencement of the pomp, and circumstance of the Skerrit, Savarin and Alix-Boyd Knight’s comedy show today.

      I could not believe the mess opposite the State House. Dominica Public Library, DBS Radio, Fort Young Hotel all look a mess in the photos, but we in suit and tie celebrating what?

    Why the need for a parade. My god these leaders are making a fool of Dominica. Look at the backdrop. DBS still board up the library still looking the same way maria left it. Nothing has been evident since the passing of this hurricane and you all want to make all that show for opening of Parliament. You all people and you all supporters are wicked souls.
