Prime Minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, has made it clear Dominica stands firm behind its nominee for the post of Commonwealth Secretary General, Baroness Patricia Scotland, and is confident that she will emerge victorious when Heads of Governments meet in Malta for the election on November 27 to the 29.
“We have no doubt that Baroness Scotland will emerge as the secretary general. We have concluded that we should pursue our candidate,” he said.
Presently two candidates from the Caribbean region have been nominated for the post. Antigua and Barbuda has nominated former diplomat, Sir Ronald Sanders and Dominica’s nominee is former UK Attorney General, Dominican-born, Baroness Scotland.
Speaking in an interview with state-owned DBS Radio, the Prime Minister said Scotland’s credentials surpass that of the other nominees.
He also said the matter was discussed at the recent 62nd OECS Authority here in Dominica.
“The matter was discussed at the OECS Heads of Government meeting, the cabinet has carefully looked at all the issues relating to the candidature for the Commonwealth secretariat post and the government is firmly behind its candidate, Dominica is firmly behind its candidate in the person of Baroness Scotland,” he stated. “Her name will be advanced at the meeting in Malta at the end of this month.”
Dominica will be represented by His Excellency the President, Charles Savarin and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Francine Baron at the Malta meeting.
At the OECS meeting Prime Minister of St. Kitts, Dr. Timothy Harris, called on member states to settle on one candidate for the post. He questioned whether the OECS can be perceived as working together when they have not settled on one candidate and suggested that the two-day meeting be used to reach a consensus in the matter.
Harris noted that the OECS should avoid a dangerous precedent by settling on one nominee.
After the meeting, Foreign Affair Minister, Baron said at a press conference that the two countries with nominees will be meeting to discuss the matter “to see whether we can arrive at an agreement moving forward.”
Chairman of the OECS and Prime Minister of Grenada Dr. Keith Mitchell said it makes no sense to have two nominees from the region and by the time Heads of Government leave for Malta, one candidate will be selected.
Meantime the Opposition United Workers Party (UWP) here in Dominica has called upon the government to withdraw Scotland from the race saying that Sanders already has the consensus of CARICOM, questioning why Skerrit is fighting against the union. The party said that Scotland is a sitting member of the House of Lords and has contributed little to development within the region.
The Commonwealth Secretary-General is elected to a maximum of two four-year terms and the incumbent, Kamalesh Sharma of India, is due to demit office in April 2016 on the expiration of his second term.
Presently there are three candidates for the post: Scotland, Sanders and Mmasekgoa Masire-Mwamba of Botswana, a former deputy secretary general for political affairs of the Commonwealth.
labourites must be ashamed of Roosvelt by now even if they try to make excuses for him. you mean a PM cannot face hs fellow oecs PMs and sends a woman to defend him at the press conference? again he chooses that same woman and the president to go Make his case at the commonwealth meeting? The man is scared to address the UN and depends on Alix to curb the opposition in the house?
Is that real man?
According to my friend Mr. Royer it begins to appear that francin would defend Roosvelt no matter what. she must be a strong woman. just as roosvelt stands firm behind scotland so too does francin stand firm behind roosvelt. tony too may stand firm with scotland but heard he may not stand FIRM in other areas.
One sweet day people and I hope that it will not be too late when you will realize that the JESTER is also a TRICKSTER AND IS VERY DEVIOUS.
Baroness Patricia Scotland of Dominica, the obvious choice agenda or not….
When will the Ministers of Government come to the realization that as far as Skeritt is concerned he has no confidence in their ability to either represent his Government in any high powered meetings or international forum. Regie has been sick for months, them feller are not intelligent enough to even act in the housing Ministry. In the Parliament, important debate like the budget, them fellers cannot speak. The ECAMC Act, again them fellers were like moumous. As far as Skeritt is concerned , Savarin, Baron, Regie and Tony are all he needs, not all those jokers who are occupying ministerial positions.
Baroness Scotland may have an impressive record but as can be seen its predominantly British and i think the Brits are also pushing their agenda. On another not however our PM should have supported the other heads of gov’t. They gave full support to Dr. Carissa Ettiene. It would be nice if we had returned the favor. Don’t trust smiley faces they will stab you in the back
Looking, in other words, are we being told by those who oppose the government that any Dominican living in the Diaspora cannot represent Dominica except that person opposes the Government? If the nominee was a UWP supporter would it be okay, or the Leader of the Opposition would oppose it also because he is pro another country’s nominee?
I wonder how the UWP Senator from St. Joseph feels and whether she supports her Leader or feels complete disgust for his rant against another highly qualified woman; someone she herself could emulate, an individual no less from the constituency she ran for and had hoped to represent.
We are seeing over and over the disrespect this man has for women. We can never forget his description of young women at that rally in St. Joseph, Is the organization that say they represent women quiet of this issue too? if Dominica has a nominee why would any Dominican campaign against one of its own? My Antigua friend asked me? SMH.
.
A significant number caricom countries didnot vote Dr. Etienne . infact if was left up to caricom Dr. Etienne would not have been Director. Caricom votes were divided from since then. Tell lennox and uwp
Only a fool leans on his own misunderstandings!
Roosvet…….., he ducks the press conference , he ducks UN meetings, he ducks commonwealth meeting and loves to hide behinds francin, and alix skirts
I hope Dominica’s Nominee gets the appointment; that would be very good for us as a Country. Good Job Mr. Prime Minister and the Government of Dominica. Makes us feel very proud having you looking out for our citizens at home and abroad.
Good Luck Baroness Scotland. Whatever way it, goes you have made Dominica proud already. Good going Dominica. Another way to make the world know that we are the Commonwealth of Dominica.
Rubbish, no wonder you are still in doubt.
We say Sir Ronald Sanders
Hell no, not Ronald Saunders. Antigua wants their name out there to boast on us. Hell no,. I say Dominica\’s nominee will be victorious. Antiguans don\’t like Dominicans and they will do all possible to keep us down just know that. The whole caribbean are afraid of the development of Dominica and the fact that we will surpass them. Can\’t you see how they want to keep us out of soo many things, they hate our government?
It s interesting the arguments being put forth by both sides. Especially in light of the fact that every opportunity people get to bash the government for supporting the Antigua based liat with funds they say Skerrit is anit Dominica. And you all want him to support Antigua s nominee now because???
EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY.
Who are you referring to? When will be your day?
They my people listen to yourself \”we eating our own, we doesn\’t want to see Dominican developed, etc\”.
It seem once is a doing doing right or wrong it should be right! NO, right is right and wrong is wrong!
How is this lady it seem people from the community of et origin doesn\’t even know her, and I imagine same for the rest of the country, it look like she more known around government circles.
Check the track recorded of the other candidates, it see they are more suited for the job and has clean records.
Now is she going to help Dominica with the following :
1. Address our commonwealth privileges?
2. I help island nation like Dominica to manage the spending, because it seems all the commonwealth nations spending money claiming children in 30 plus year will repay;
3. And many more not listed here.
However I start talking now and I not mammy and daddy, that alway I red, red, not to expose our government.
labourm I believe is now your eyes close,no wonder skerrit can fool you so ,By now ,you should know ,Any body skerrit endorses, cannot be anything good,,Have you not learned, a double minded man is unstable in all his ways? Go back and visit all skerrit.s appointments , He hav never appointed someone to help dominica,,But to help himself
What language is this comment written in
Not Dominica Skerrit you and your cronies who quietly decided to IMPOSE her on everyone else. The woman is in the habit of collecting titles and that’s all she is concerned about. She long disassociated herself with Dominica. Bring you in and you will bring her into any post she wants. The very way you tried to implant her at the UN meeting amongst Caribbean leaders and she was ushered OUT. This is not about Dominica muchless Dominicans rejecting their own, this is about the ego trip you and this woman have been on for selfish PERSONAL gain and publicity. Even though she emerges as winner(slim to none chance) it will only be a title for her trophy collection and you paying her back for getting you into your demonic society.
Is Ron Sanders associated with Dominica? He also has a title of Sir that means he has been knighted by the Queen so he is also in the habit of collecting titles. For people like you it is everything for everyone else but for Dominica nothing.
you miss the point….go do research
People also call me Sir., and I’m no knight queen!!!
But what about baroness Scotland that is so special she has to be part of Dominica while leaving in england?
I firmly believe that the discussion should center around whether Dominica’s nominee has the best chance at becoming the person to head the Commonwealth and not the peripheral issues of how many Dominicans that heads what. The Caribbean by itself cannot determine who heads the Commonwealth.
Typical Dominican, eating their own! Certain animals after giving birth they eat their babies that’s what some Dominicans are presently doing to that well educated lady. Ms.. Scotland biggest sin is she was nominated by PM Skeritte. Lenox Linton the position that you are seeking you are not qualified to hold such a position. Why, what are your credentials, you tried to do like your predecessor, Mr. James and babble you way out of a simple hearing, afterwards you embarrassed yourself. If only you completed high school, you would know your have to have substantive facts not innuendos. Ms. Scotland was born in St. Joseph, Dominica and educated in England, with several Masters, therefore, she is more than qualified for the nomination. You on the other hand attended Bagasse Academy in Marigot.
That’s not the point. I think it is an opportunity of “united we stand, divided we fall!” For many other positions the Caribbean has stood together to ensure we use our strength in numbers to rally around a candidate. If the majority is going for the Antiguan, we should follow suit I think. It has always been that way. Why go against the tide now?
Dominica has some prominent leaders in regional organizations – CARICOM and PAHO for example, why can’t we rally behind our brother for Commonwealth? I don’t get it. Maybe I am missing something.
Yes you are missing something, the objection to the Baroness is mostly coming from Dominicans.
enough, What are you talking about?Skerrit tought us how to eat our own, He so believe in Dominicans that he doesnt want a Dominican child, You soooo foooooooooooooooolish,to talk about our own,
Is the chinese our own? Is american health care our own? Is the materials from guyana that build the house in villecase ,our own? Is the flowers for the yard which came in a container from guyana ,our ownthe birthday dog which came on the privete plane alone in canefield the other dayfor the little boy ,Is it our own?EeEEEhh
Go take a look in the house in villecase and watch the furnitures ,and tell me if you see our own,
Man ,Not even the stones in the yard that is our own Enough, Are you not ashamed as yet?
Everything for some of u educated idiots is politics.. They are all very qualified candidates.. They voted for us with Dr Etienne and Mr laroque…the point that is being raised is unlike Baroness Scotland who gave all her service to the UK mr Sanders has given his to the Caribbean..take that red cloth away from ur eyes..how,then do we expect to get the support of the OECS and Caricom when we are not willing to give support to their candidates? Sir Sanders already has more support than her within OECS and Caricom..then we wonder why Caricom can’t work…Mr Skerrit taking his divisive attitude into the region now..What has the Baroness done for Caricom and Dominica?
Someone once asked……what is wrong with Dominicans, what is wrong with Dominica. what is wrong is that we do not encourage or support each other. We cannot even support OUR candidate for the Secretariat of the Commonwealth. Regardless of our politics or our reason for disagreement we should support the Baroness.
It is the same attitude we have towards local products. We prefer what is imported. We need to learn to put what is ours first.
There is no embarrassment if our nomination is not successful, so there is no reason for not supporting her.
Emile, how can you in good conscience claim that this lady is Dominican, She is more an accident of birth than anything else. Just like those illegal voters who keep coming down to keep this DLP govt in power. Sir clear your head, just because you were born in DA those not make you a Dominican, For an astute businessman, I thought you had more brains and commonsense than what you are displaying here
she is Dominican by birth. Maybe the Sanders man is Dominican.
The reason they act in such an unbecoming manner it is because the PM nominated her. This is the way I have noticed the non-supporters carry on against the PM. They discriminate and are non-cooperative.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, absolutely NOooooooooooooooooo
But what is wrong with the Pm? What is the President doing representing Dominica , with another eat a food foreign affairs minister?
It is rediculous and absurd just reading bout the president representING Dominica.
Dominica is really going Down the cliffs. It’s a sad story.
Pm prime minister where In the world does a ceremonial president such as Mr Severin represent the government? This is pure madness. ….. According to hunter : Grace it’s amazing grace it’s amazing to see all them madness in DE place.
Mr Pm.. when will you focus on rebuilding Dominica instead of jumping like a headless chicken all over DE place… You like to use emotionall issues to blind the poor
zammy u just like your leader. You never learn in school. Here it is. Simple. The Queen is the head of the commonwealth. The president represents the queen.
Patat….what…you right in your head……The President represents who..????????
If he represent the queen, then he should have on a dress.
Even persons without a cent to their names doing anything to have their children born in america so whats your point. The man is married which neans his spouse has a say where she gives birth. It takes 2 to tango.
They will never comprehend the sense of why she had her children in the US.
They are beyond comprehending. They refuse to comprehend.
I feel sorry for the senseless who are very good at stirring up trouble, causing division and disunity in the land, as they blame those they do not support. It is quite evident.
Skerrit is a real spoiler boy!!
Once again Skerrit and de Dominica Labor Party is squandering its support!!
Don’t say is Lennox and dem that playing dirty politics! You have dug you own grave!!
Your DLP supporters have started to bury you…I did!!!!!! What a slap in de face of Caribbean unity.
CARICOM, OECS leaders must be ashamed of your grand standing.
YOU REALLY BLEW IT FOR ALL OF US CARIBBEAN NATIONALS!!
YOU WILL FACE DE MUSIC!
None of our Caribbean leaders boasting of your genius mind! Not even locally!
Your ego is sooooooo large boy!!
De baroness haven’t been able to gather not one British pound that she can sing praise about for our sweet Waitikubuli!
Skerrit acting like he fed up with this position and he doesn’t know how to let it go because he can’t!
Whoever put you in dat uncompromising position will have to take you out of it!!!
Is not Dominican votes that causing you to act against Dominica and de Caribbean’s interest!!
good riddance!
Imagining things again? You are allowing your imagination to run away with you.
Go and take a nap to clear your brains and rest your body. Time for a good rest.
Baroness Scotland forfeited the Caribbean’s trust, when she supported Britain’s decision to invade Iraq.
So what atheist? As always, you make no sense
Dominica stands firm behind mr Sanders all de WAY we voting Sanderssss
I NOT SUPPORTING NO ANTIGUAN OR WHITE MAN IN THAT SO COUNT ME OUT OF THAT DOMINICA SUPPORTING RONALD SAUNDERS. The man hardly did things in Antigua than to support his own race and family in Antigua. Does he care about Black People. I will vote for the two ladies.
Antigua have their own agenda and if Ronald Saunders get it then Dominica will remain in the DUMPS. Mark my words because it seems that we are dumbass people who are against our own to put others before. DOMINICANS NEED TO WAKE UP AND SMELL THE BUSH TEA.
but that’s why Dominica is rated as the Poorest in the Eastern Caribbean and not respected by the other OECS Heads, as the consider Dominica’s Pm is a child….
He lacks maturity thus the poor governance of his island…his tourism industry just got a F rating as well as other sections dead across the island…
only foolish people reside on that hilly island called dominica..
You are another traitor vs those who are patriotic and who stand by Dominica and the decision of its PM.
And on the rest of the islands, there are many more criminals/murderers and vicious ones that their leaders are unable to handle and eradicate.
I will take Dominica any day!
God bless Dominica!
God bless the PM and his wise decision!
DOMINICA is not respected because the other islands dont want to see my island develop. We are not wanted in the region and that is from history. Dominica should align herself with ALBA or FRANCE and disassociate herself from CARICOM.
Try living in another island and hear how they regard Dominica from FREEDOM TO LABOUR. The caribbean has Dominica under watch to keep us down and CARICOM and OECS is not our salvation they are our curse. GOD BLESS sKERRITT, DOMINICA AND THE PEOPLE.
Well, who around here is surprised at PM Skerritt’s high-handedness? Not me for sure. I guess he thought his dimples would bazoodie those OECS Heads of State?
Typical two-faced Gemini, that Skerritt there.
Now what would some of us say about you?
People why wouldn’t you want Dominca to be represented and known worldwide, don’t you all think that Dominica needs such recognition. Put politics aside and look at the bigger picture; every country is looking out for themselves, it does not matter if the PM did not give full reasons but this is a great opportunity for Dominica to be represents. We should embrace it.
Stop and look at the bigger picture and stop putting everything politically divide.
This gentleman has put Dominica in a further difficult position with its OECS comrades.
When they should be moving toward unity in OECS to advance our position in Global community he is planning to do it alone.
This is why under Skerrit leadership we are last place for everything which is good in Caribbean and first for everything that is bad.
Dominica report card in the Caribbean::( excluding Haiti)
Highest poverty rate, highest unemployment, poorest Healthcare system , worse infrastructure, highest taxes, smallest economy, most fragile economy ,highest manufacturing cost, lowest exporting country and highest importing country per capital.
What a country!!!!!!
where mister want to go with that English woman. and doh tell me she is dominica, she have no remembrance of Dominican life, she left at two…. saunders is a better choice, he is a hard worker, baroness is a money sniper
For that matter, can you tell us what Saunders did for Dominica and the other islands?
Go for it Skerrit. Don’t let those just comes bully you into submission. You have more experience and knowledge of diplomacy.
I trust this is sarcasm coming from you.. because you would be even more silly than Skerrit to liken him to having knowledge and diplomacy. Believe Skerrit’s rhetoric when he is abroad by himself and returns showboating. Why was he absent on his HOME TURF during the recently concluded OECS leaders meeting? He has so many accolites and a huge fan base, he missed the opportunity to show them how brilliant he truly is and how he checks the other leaders at conferences why? because Skerrit is neither informed, composed nor an orator. Hogwash he feeds you all daily yet he cowers in a corner and avoids making representation. The only art Skerrit has mastered is how to be a con man for now.
I have always said that Skerrit was NEVER, EVER Prime Minister material. I wonder with his high level of ineptness, if he knows the meaning of UNITY! He obviously believes that everyone thinks like some of his FOOLS and SYCOPHANTS in Dominica!
There is a saying, “a friend in need is a friend in deed.” During the DLP convention at Point Michelle in 2014, Gaston Brown made himself available and stood by Skeritt and made many supporting statements as regards why Dominicans should select the DLP. Now Gaston needs his help in an effort to select Mr. Sanders who has resided and worked in the Caribbean for many years, in fact, at one time, he worked as a journalist amount others duties, now it is pay back time for being at Point Michelle, it would appear Skeritt, has forgotten Mr. Brown’s friendship. Mr. Sanders has never been charged or convicted in any court of law, in comparison to Scotland who was charged and convicted in the courts. She left Dominica when she was two years old. She has contributed nothing significant to Dominica and the Caribbean. I hope Mr. Brown will learn a lesson as to what kind of man he is dealing with, if he is not sure , maybe, he should speak to Ian.
Sanders Ka Twavay
Imagine the President is deputising for the Prime Minister. In which real country you hear the Head of State sitting in for the Prime Minister. The meeting in Malta is a meeting of Heads of Government. Savarin is not head of the Government of Dominica. Dominica is a sad and ridiculous place
Total disrespect to the rest of the Ministers he has in his cabinet.
Skerrit and his gang know that they can just go on kairi and call people dunce, ugly ,tief , pass and share some plywood and their supporters will have no idea of whats going in the region or the world. just ask a labourite about recent issues and you will hear cursing and insults and shouting leave my Pm alone.
true indeed. they are so dumb
But he is the head of state which is a position much highet than pm of a political party. Go read a book and stop being objective for no reason. He has the power to dissolve parliament so why cant he represent the Island..
Why do you want to degrade Dominica. The President can represent Dominica as Head of State. The PM is head of government . Queen Elizabeth as head ofstate has represented England in this organization instead of the English P M. Not A heard follower……do not let the opposition forces misguide you.
This should not be a surprise to you. Occasionally it occurs.
Skerrit you will never surprise me!
We here in DA can fool around if we like but I can’t confidently say that de Caribbean is united!
Your ego has got the best of you again!!
PAHO Director, Caricom Secretary-General, WICB Boad official..all Skerrit appointees!
Skerrit thinks he is all of these positions!
But i notice something..ever since Wrica.
Mr skerrit is staying away from key official functions where his name and signature is required on very controversial issues of state!
Skerrit if you tired with de job..resign from your position!
– You were disrespectfully and ashamedly absent at de UN to plead on our nation’s behalf
– You were ashamedly and disrespectfully absent in de house to pass de EMERGENCY Asset management bill (you were back in de country de day after it was passed in de house..you knew of de emergency yet you just pass that off)
– you were absent at de recent press conference of OECS leaders at what was described as de “best meeting”
@dissident……….Wow. Are you serious. The PM has cause the appointment of the Head of so many reginal organizations. So what is the problem.
It seems the PM is a bully. Everyone sounds like Bullies. If you are not a bully in Dominica crappaud smoke your pipe. Alas Boy
It also makes you a bully.
Baroness Scotland has rarely been seen meeting, advising or checking Dominicans in the Uk where she ahs lived for years. My understanding is that after Ericka she appeared on Sky News in the UK with the flag of the Dominican Republic in full view and never attempted to ask for its removal with our Dominican flag. Alas, Après Bondie Ce Later.
From Dominicans in the UK, she knew not what she was talking about, she had not consulted Dominicans for quality advice.
I can conclude the only reason she appeared on Sky was to promote herself and her nomination for the Commonwealth Secretary`s position. Good Bye Skerrit and Scotland
I believed we should rally behind Sir Sanders
Now u are asking whether Baroness Scotland has rarely been seen meeting, advising or checking Dominicans who lives in the UK, I’m now asking u a question, do u know Sir Sanders and what has he done for Dominicans who lives in Antigua? So as a Dominican, I’ll vote for the Dominican
Question to u between Baroness Scotland and Mr Sanders which of the 2 has done more for Caricom? After all is a nomination for Caricom Secretary General not Dominica Secretary General.. What’s has the Baroness done for Dominica? Mr Irwin Larocque and Dr Carissa Ettiene are both Dominicans and got the support of Caricom..why must it only be a Dominican when there are prominent qualified persons from the other Islands? As a Dominican I am in support of Mr Sanders and Baroness Scotland will not be elected to the position..
DA Massive
Where did you read any statement or report saying that the nomination of candidates was for CARICOM Secretary General? That’s half the problem in Dominica. We do not inform ourselves. We listen to crap on the radio, we repeat accusations against people without a shred of evidence; we “follow the leader” without analysing for ourselves whether we are being led off a cliff and finally we curse and get vexed with everyone who does not follow suit!
I just read another post which insinuates that Dr. Ettienne is among people backed by Mr. Skerrit who are “no goods”! Can you imagine this? All that Dr. Ettienne has done to elevate herself and her country is being brought to the dust by one careless statement from someone who perhaps doesn’t even have a clue who Dr. Ettienne is? What a shame!
Skerrit stand strong not cabinet not Dominica. Skeritt decides pettyy crap like who gets award at festivals so you guys think he listen to anyone on ms. Scotland. She must have financed his campaign. If this lady had any bone of honesty and integrity she would not be in alliance with skerrit.
Skerrit is acting against the spirit of the Caribbean Community. A strategic priority for the Community is the deepening of the coordination of the foreign relations of Member States to advance the interests of the region. This includes putting the support of Member States behind one candidate. Now that Skerrit has chosen to divide the region and to act against the commitment that his government has given to regional unity, he cannot face his fellow Caribbean Prime Ministers so he sends Foreign Minister Francine Baron and Charles Savarin to the Commonwealth Heads Meeting in Malta to face the music, including a likely defeat of his candidate. If any of the Caribbean candidate fails to win the nomination, the blame is to be fairly apportioned to Mr. Skerrit. This could have adverse implications for Dominica. Mr. Skerrit is being stubborn and shows he has no wisdom as a leader qua the Prime Minister.
Skerrit is simply believing that he has more influence than anyone else! It will be interesting to see how this ends. Even if they elect that Dominica woman, she will only embarrass Dominica, and Skerrit in the interim!
If she can\’t find employment is a country where she lived as a child to now she is an old goat, why should she live at the expense of Dominica? Some say I do not contribute anything to Dominica, they can say what the wish, I know better. However, recently Skerrit that Mountain Chicken Crapo Mentality appointed her Dominica disaster coordinator, to me that means she should be negotiating for financial assistance in wake of Erika.
To this date neither, the Crapo Skerrit nor her has pointed a finger to anything she accomplished to aid the country! She has not produced one single diaper for a single child in Dominica, never mind a single British quid! Skerrit refuse to withdraw her, but I do not think he is in…
I do not think he is in control of this one, this is one he cannot buy! I doubt he can bribe the decision makers in this case, I reiterate if she is selected, she will embarrass herself, Skerrit, and Dominica in the interim!
Well Mr. Telemaque
The saga has indeed ended and Skerrit as you refer to him could not buy that one as you said. So what will you do now, you and your band of haters, who do not care if you destroy Dominica as long as Mr. Skerrit is caught up in the destruction, move to the next hate-filled topic? I just don’t understand how human beings can actually live like this!
The man is certainly not perfect or worse, but I refuse to join you cranks in destroying my country at every turn in the hope that I can destroy him in the process! Disgraceful bunch you are!
And to the one who mentioned Troublesome (Dr. Jonathan Provost), formally of 35 River Street, if you think I am a nobody since you know him so well ask him to describe me to you! I you cant locate him ask me and give me a telephone number, our your Email and after we clear you by check into your background, if you are clean he might contact you!
Miss Elizabeth if you had not send Barbara\’s trash to me I would not have seen it on DNO, I do not even DON everyday since I found out I have to identify myself as human or beast, or robot!
Barbara question!
How come your daddy or our name-sake did not continue in the race, he dropped out: you know why?
Well, I know but I doh talking eh, I doh going an tell is cause him name tainted too.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Something tells me that you have Antigua blood in you or perhaps him name come from Dominica eh, but if him tainted,that big mouth Skerrit queen and Skerrit tainted, maybe the organization simply deal with convicts hat is why they seclect Scotland I better not talk too much you see because dem Scotland no matter where you find them in Dominica dem originate in Marigot, and if be rite me in deep dirty water oui!
And if you fram Antigua dem go deport you soon!
You see what you made me do? If you and Elizabeth did not bother me I would be silent.
All the WAY to Botswana. Yah mon!
That is it, never mind what the citizens want, what Skerrit wants is all that matters.
Why is this politically powerless Novice demanding that we withdraw our candidate for Commonwealth Secretary General? He really does not understand the commitment and resolve of our precious Supreme Leader and the blessed Dominica Labour Party. We will NOT withdraw our candidate point blank!!! Dominica has the best-suited candidate for the Commonwealth Secretary General. Our candidate is a former jurist and member of Parliament in the United Kingdom, well versed in international laws and experienced in negotiating and conversing with leaders throughout the world. Sir Ronald Sanders does not command the level of respect that Baroness Scotland does in the International Community. Labourites are 100% behind our Supreme Leader’s nomination of Baroness Scotland and stand behind Him in refusing to withdraw her as our candidate. We know that the Uneducated Wicked People has been working behind the scenes to derail our nominee but they will surely fail…as they ALWAYS do!
I agree 100% with you, but this is not a matter of D L P image, this is a matter of Dominica’s image. And every Dominican at home and abroad should support the Baroness 100% regardless of ones political affiliation. I am surprise that Guyana is not supporting us. when Burnam nomination for the post was made we supported it and the nomination was successful. That was the first Secretary from the Carribbean. When Guyana was nominated for a position for the U N Security Council Dominica supported it. The nomination was successful, and other first for the Caribbean. So let’s go Dominica, let us want it, let us do it.
Who the hell is she that all of Dominica should supporter her?
She has already damaged her character in England, by violating British Law, if she was in America, her career would be derailed. How can you trust someone who should have known the law; however, set out to employ people who were illegally in England.
People who employs illegal in any country, does that with the intention to underpay, and take advantage of a bad situation! That is evil; only one who is exactly like her would fight as heard to get her in a position with her bad conduct, and reputation.
And this is not subject to a law suit because her face, and conduct was printed in every newspaper in England, broadcast on Television, and Radio too! Skerrit does not care about that because he is also shady!
I support the Baroness. I wished my support and vote counted.
Let it be known that the region will never again support Dominica for any position out there. They have lost the confidence in DOM because of the pig headedness of the PM. This thing of support for Dominicans from the region is over and we will be on our own.
Who said so? You? This does not matter.
My choice is Mmasekgoa Masire-Mwamba of Botswana .
Sanders……very good….
She is not my choice and never will. She is an African. What does she know and care about the Caribbean/West Indies? What has she done for those countries?
My choice is the Baroness. She has more to offer to the Caribbean/West Indies.
am a dominican and i dont stand firm
so in my opinion you stand firm with her
not meeee
linton man i though u were smarter but now i see how D/A u are smh
He is wiser than your dumb derriere for sure and your Pm who loves Dominica soooooooooooo much that his children are American. Now who is wiser? Go figure Red fool
@ Tamika Dorival, we will victimize u.
