Linton questions PM Skerrit’s visit to Greece

Leader of the Opposition United Workers Party (UWP), Lennox Linton is questioning why Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit is currently on a trip to Greece.

Linton spoke on Saturday night via Facebook, following statements made by Skerrit during a live address from Greece earlier that night, where he denied reports made on an internet blog site that he is being investigated by authorities in the United States in relation to allegations that he sold a diplomatic passport to ex-Dominican diplomat, Alireza Zabahalat Monfared, an Iranian national, who was arrested recently after an international manhunt.

Last week information from a government press release stated that Prime Minister Skerrit went on a working visit to Greece and was being accompanied by non-resident Ambassador to that country, Lennox Lawrence.

But Linton is questioning why Skerrit is the European country in the first place.

“You are in Greece, at the moment, you are there we understand in the company of Lennox Lawrence, an associate of the Greece law firm…are you in Greece to consult with your financial advisor? And since Mr. Lawrence is with you, is this about ship registry business?” he questioned.

Linton continued, “What business are you undertaking on behalf of Dominica in Greece? And be specific.”

He called on Skerrit to “come clean” with the people of Dominica and alleged that Monfared was being harbored in Dominica.

“But we are not begging for you to come clean anymore, it’s time for you to go,” Linton stressed. “Because even now, given the opportunity for you to speak honestly with the people of Dominica, about the circumstances of Alireza Monfared, and the fact that while the Iranians wanted him to face trial in Iran, he was being harboured by you and your friends in Dominica after he was alleged to be involved in a multi-billion dollar embezzlement scam in Iran.”

He said it’s no fault of the opposition that Dominica has found itself in this ‘very difficult situation.’

“No, Mr. Skerrit it is your fault,” Linton remarked. “It is the result of your reckless, unacceptable behaviour as leader of this country that the country finds itself in this very difficult situation internationally now.”

According to him Dominica is being looked at as a “rogue nation”

“We are being looked at as a country that doesn’t give a damn about global security because we have some petty, personal economic interest to protect in the government, not among the people because the people will survive, the people will go on,” he added.

Linton went on to say that the opposition has a right to stand where the interest of the country is being injured, “and we will stand.”

“You are not going to prevent us from standing and you are not going to prevent the massive demonstration that is going to come against your administration,” he stated.

Linton called on Dominicans to stand up, rise up and save Dominica.

“Don’t allow yourself to be fooled, or to be tricked or deceived,” he urged. “Keep your head on, focus on the truth, focus on the facts and all will be well, but also the responsibility to save your country, it belongs to you, it belongs to all of us acting together for God and for country in the Commonwealth of Dominica.”

    Lennox knows very well that he has ruin his chances of being the prime minister of Dominica due to his own fault. Although he still has the title leader of the opposition, Lennox his presenting his case like a journalist/ reporter without facts. Sadly the UWP have not yet realize that Lennox is actually the biggest problem which will ruin the party’s chances of ever being elected to lead Dominica and to win a general election. Lennox love for country does not necessarily mean that you have to ruin your party’s chances of wining. In your case lennox, I think love for country is to find a better leader for your party to increase your chances to win elections. And you can continue doing what you are best at which is ( journalism).

    My goodness… some of you all on here act like the Americans before they voted their now elect Prime Minister. Mr “Make America great again” (right now they crying). SOOO by all means put Lenox Linton in power and watch Dominica turn into chaos like whats happening to the U.S now. This man brings nothing to the table but turmoil and drama and i must say he is excellent at projecting. He offers no ides or has no plans to make the county better but constantly attacks Skerrit (always creating a diversion to keep the attention away from him and his twisted ideologies and his inadequacy to run the country). How fast have we forgotten that he was the one to go on 60 minutes and started the whole selling passports story. (If u want to lead a country you don’t black list it as a rogue country, U do whatever it takes to protect it! despite who is in power!!!) People think! I’m not saying Skerrit is a saint but Lennox hmm… question is which is the lesser of two evils

    There were reports of very, very loud noises coming from the area of St.Aroment today. Many went to see what was up only to find that the loud noise was the resounding laughter of GON Emanuel and his wife after reading the news about Monfared.

    Mr. President, with your experience and current position, now is the time to preside.
    Excerpts from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Savarin :

    “Following the demise of the Patrick John government (in which Savarin played an integral role), Savarin was made Chairman of the Committee for National Salvation (CNS). This body comprising members of the greater cross section of Dominican Society, was tasked with overseeing the transition to an interim government.”

    “Savarin gained nationwide recognition for two CSA-led strikes: the 1973 public service strike over the transfer of radio personality Daniel “Papa Dee” Cauderion, and the September–October 1977 CSA general strike that virtually crippled the island.”

    Linton and UWP are not viable opposition to the current corrupt Labour Party
    We need fresh blood. We need people who will put the needs of the country first
    Before the needs of their greed. Dominica is becoming a Nanny state . The votes of the people being bought
    The next step ? We will have a dictatorship with el prime minister with
    His cronies running things indiscriminately. God help Dominica!

They do not want to get involved…… as long as they are genuine they prefer the earthly suffering than the glamorous life. Glory to God! Notice the number of dislikes?

      As Dr. Christian, the attorney, appears to be chomping at the bit for a shot of the action, may I suggest that having caused all the upset he has thus far, he may be invited to help to clean up the mess by leading a popular and peaceful request for the stepping down of the current regime.

      The Czechoslovakia incident is instructive in that regard. Slovakia split from the union by a velvet revolution whereby Slovaks, each and every one of them, just refused peacefully to follow the rules and regulations of the Czech regime. This brought the country to a halt and they, peacefully, got their independence for the regime.

      I wish Dr. Christian the best of luck

    Lennox lets me advise you in the right way. You want to become PM? 1.stop bashing the leader of your nation 2.stop putting Dominica and its nationals at risk because of your behaviour.3. Attend parliament proceedings.4. Express your concerns at the function on behalf of the people not yours.youre there to represent the peoples interest not yours. 5. Stay informed. It will help you make intelligent decisions not harsh and reckless ones. 6. Stop throwing tantrums like a child. People will see right thru you. 7. Be tackful. 8. Stop promoting hate , discord and violence. 9. Stop focussing on Skerrit. It makes you look pathetic unintelligent and desperate. 10. Finally Dominica belongs to everyone of us.stop destroying it to the international world. You’re not harming Skerrit with your actions. You’re destroying Dominica

    Most of you all are idiots. I understand that now.

    Yes we should look to our leadership in times of turmoil etc. When either leader does not truly care for you… you still look to them instead of doing for yourselves.

    People, please start a new party. Someone please do this and stick to morals and REAL economics.

    Do you all not see every leader placed in power gets corrupt (or already is)?

    Start a new party and pass new laws:
    – Against Political leaders
    – Against incomplete and p****-footed projects
    – Against dirty cops (and wicked clean ones)
    – Against foolish drugs (Coke, cigarettes etc)
    – For the people (Agriculture based encouragement)

    We elect people based:
    > on degrees and not insight and foresight.
    > Popularity (Strings too)
    > Color of their flag (Bloods and Creeps)
    > Sewo

    These are all very very stupid reasons. Then at days end we end up in these kinds of farces.

    WAKE THE HELL UP PEOPLE OF DOMINICA.

        We need better laws… bottom line.

        With a new party, we can save some face. Ofc, once again lack of insight.

    Keep exposing Skerro for what he is. Make sure he presents the specific facts in this matter and do not let his empty responses act for satisfaction in this serious matter.
    The technique Skerro and his followers are using is to say Lennox that do that and is Lennox that cause me to behave like that . He is no longer a little boy so hold his feet to the fire until he leaves office.
    Dominican can doo better and we need to be among our developed Caribbean neighbors . Even DLP supporters I hear coming to your side.

Lennox, with all the technology available at our finger tips today, you cant find one person in Dominica with a video to prove that Monfared lived in Dominica until Sept 2016? Come on men. You need concrete evidence. find something that is legit. Obama went through hell in his first 4 years in office with republicans saying, ( he is not American, he is Muslim, he birth certificate is fake, he is a dictator, he is the most dangerous president ever, above the law). with all that said the American people still vote for Obama another 4 years. The republicans had no concrete evidence to convince the American people. Change your tactics. Create your plan to move the country forward, encourage your team and contribute in community service helping your constituencies. Find some lawyer surrogates to investigate.

      This is the same way that PM Skerrit will remain as Dominica’s Primary Leader, except by God’s will, he withdraws himself from that position. May God show His compassion and mercy of Love, to and on us Dominicans, if that should ever happen

    The question you should be asking your honourable friend is why Mr. Monfared was appointed as a diplomat, or even given a Dominican passport in the first place when it is unequivocal that Monfared HAD ALREADY SERVED A PRISON SENTENCE IN IRAN BEFORE HE HAD IMMIGRATED TO MALAYSIA.

    When I recall listening to the Leader of the Opposition before he was made leader of the UWP and became an elected member of parliament, I SMH. I heard his cry from Antigua when he was being deported and called the same Prime Minister of Dominica to help him come home, why would this same man be hoping and wishing for the arrest of the same Prime Minister who helped him? Why would any Dominica want our Prime Minister to be detained and arrested? This is no longer politics as usual.

    It is hatred. In so doing, he and others wishing to overthrow a duly elected PM and Government because of their inability to win an election are putting all of us at risk.

    If they believe they are not themselves under scrutiny by other governments they are fooling themselves. Is it possible they could also be banned from these countries? Because of what they are doing to theirs; Could they do the same elsewhere? Could They find themselves being deported? Maybe!!

There are those who have been convicted/served time in prison and those who committed financial crime in the us and it was swept under the rug. Fact: those financial records exist.

Therefore stop mixing apple with oranges and face the facts that people are arrested with both our citizenship passports and diplomatic passport!

      I always stop to read your comments, because not only do I receive goon information from you, having been away from, and out of touch with things taking place in Dominica for so long–before 2009; but you also confirm my perceptions –those people who are claiming to be speaking on behalf, or for our Dominicans, they are the ones who is doing the worse damage to her reputation

      PM Skerrit is blessed with the charisma and wit that is needed as the Primary Leader of a Country; he is well loved by international leaders, and that is a good thing.

      That is the authority in him, that his enemies are most afraid of–it is just unfortunate that those enemies belong in the opposing government, lead by Lennox Linton–what a pity!

    Be specific with your evidence against the Prime Minister. I want to hear evidence so I can join you in calls for his resignation, so far you have not produced evidence and it is over ten years since you have been singing this song of Skeritt theif. Concentrate on things like electoral reform and employment. You have not given one good reason why Skeritt should resign. Jason Kurt Fontaine a convicted felon is now part of your team, based on your standards you should now be calling on yourself to resign.

You have been so focused on skerrit that you have failed to represent the true interest of Dominica. Instead of calling on Skerrit to resign you should resign as leader of your party and allow your party to pick up the pieces of the destruction you’ve caused. Do the right thing Lennox.quit now you’ve made a fool of yourself for too long

      Linton always have evidence. He still believe that he has and did present evidence to prove that Kieron Pinard Byrne misappropriated the funds of the layout River Hotel. Nine professional and practicing judges found him to be a “liar”. Including the London Privy Council where he said was the only place on this earth he would receive justice. Part of that outcome is already placed in the hands of our historian. There is more to come from the Privy Council. What is worst he still has very intelligent people who continue to sing his song that the court system was rigged against him, even with all his evidence bundle – six boxes, No doubt he can continue to say he has evidence. Now he is before the courts again over his charge of “rapist ministers”. Here is his evidence. I did not call all ministers rapists. I meant one minister. I believe what I said to be true” Bondieux! why is the case taking so long? Almost a year now since a preliminary matter came up for hearing.

    If things go wrong with the governance of our our country is the management in charge that is to blame and must bear responsibility. It is ridiculous to to put the blame on the opposition. Is the government in charge or the opposition? thirteen years of blessed, anointed Skerrit and we are still as divided , if not worse, and the economy far worse than at the beginning of his reign. Is Lennox linton to blame for that? That is, ludicrous mr. Skerrit.

Is it Taiwan Mr. Linton. I know you dislike the words “EVIDENCE AND FACTS”. But just so that you come off this time smiling, a force smile too, name just one country that has instituted a kind of treatment to holders of Dominican passport that can be truly referred to as treatment of persons from a rogue nation.

        Jean, soon our visa-free travel will be curtailed. the U.k. for instance can take unilateral action against Dominica. We are only a very small country and they did exactly that for Jamaica, another fellow Caricom country, much bigger than we are. Nobody will cry for us, except those selling our passports who will see their profits evaporate and will desert Skerrit, leaving him as a pariah. They are not dependent on Dominica alone, Skerrit is. Some of us have a legitimate second nationality, thank God but what about the poor , Dominican born citizens who will be the real victims?

    They claim that he is on a working visit; now the question is what chores is he performing in Greece? Anytime Skerrit leaves Dominica, his purpose is to either seek medical attention, or selling Dominica passports!

    If the idea is to suggest he is seeking assistance from a country where more the 40% of the population lives in poverty, I doubt the shaky government of Greece will have any handout to offer Skerrit when there are people in Greece who can’t depend on their government for help!

        I know what is his medical problem, I have diagnosed him many times, but because you are so dunce you could not even detect his diagnoses.

        By the way the doctors who treats me are all specialist in their field; and when there is an occasion to be hospitalized, I go into a private ward all by myself you see; so shut up. If Skerrit come to hospital in America his behind might have to settle for an open ward, mixed with man and woman!

        Guy, my mate worked in a bank for more than thirty years, before she became a nurse She told me there is a woman who walked into that bank every month and withdraw $300.00, stink and dirty, she said she felt sorry for her until she checked into the woman’s account and discovered she had more than ten million dollars in the account, yet she chose to live on Skid-row

        Turn out this lady was a principle of a school owned a house on Miracle mile if you live in Los Angles you know where that is. She walked away from it simply because she said she was tired of paying taxes.

        I rent apartments for people who’s rent is subsidize by the state, some people who’s rent is two thousand dollars per month the state pays me in…

      • Continue:

        I rent apartments for people who’s rent is subsidize by the state, some people who’s rent is two thousand dollars per month the state pays me in some cases more than 85% of the tenant rent which is $1,700.00 dollars, for the tenant okay. the tenant pays from their pocket $300.00, in any event they must have a source of some income in order to pay me the balance that could not happen in Dominica or Greece. What you see on Skid-row most of it is by choice!

        And if you do not believe what I said you can go to Section 8 Housing Authority in Los Angeles and check on it see if you caught me in a lie!

    1000% agreed! Roosevelt Skerrit has done enough to tarnish the reputation of our beloved Island-Nation and, quite frankly, he MUST go! This Prime Minister, known as the “Doctor” and Supreme Leader to his loyal supporters has gone into very, very deep water with this latest scandal. The sad part however is that the United States Law Enforcement Authorities will not arrest him as a sitting Prime Minister and will instead elevate Dominica’s security risk status then impose crippling sanctions that will bring Dominica to its knees with demands for Dominican Citizens to force the Prime Minister to resign. When these leaders act criminally their Citizens are held accountable for either supporting or condoning these acts in high Office!
