Anyone who denies or did not know that Roosevelt Skerrit- Not Denise Charles- would not win the Soufriere by- elections was either hiding under a rock in a Rip Van Wrinkle type of slumber at Champagne Reef or was either lying to you or/and to themselves. During the short campaign in the south, Skerrit’s tone, temperament and arrogance suggested that he does not only hate his opponents but it also sent a clear message to his supporters to do so. It is clear that he does not only just oppose these people; he has strong feelings of disdain toward them.
Of course I would want to believe that there are still a few remaining “open-minded,” “non-judgmental” Labour supporters who do not display reprehensible levels of ignorance and hate as well. But there’s a difference – they comprise the fringe reaches of the Labour party and they don’t drive the Labour party’s decorum and behavior policy and protocol.
As for Ms. Denise Charles-please allow me to refer to her as Ms. Denise because I certainly don’t want to confuse her with the lady who represents Grand Bay with the same namesake who thinks that after breadfruit and mangoes the best thing that happened to Dominica is Skerrit as PM. That is the lady that her late PM husband-a good, humble and honest man- spent his adult life working for the dignity of ordinary Dominicans. I also don’t want to confuse Ms. Denise with the camillion politician with the checkered past who now has the cushy job of President of Dominica. Also I don’t want to diminish the life contributions of the other late PM, Dame Charles because she would exercise better judgment and not mix up Roosevelt Skerrit and his crew.
As a father of two beautiful teenage girls and on a night when the first woman- Mrs. Hilary Clinton- made history clinching the nomination of a major American political party for the Presidency, I must say congratulations to the ‘SISTAH’ from Point Mitchel on her victory. But is that girl-power all that way, Ms. Denise or is it something else? What are the circumstances and climate which allowed you to win or bought and secured your victory long before the day of voting? Plywood and galvanize anyone?
Also Ms. Denise will you address the circumstances under which you pal Mr. Pinard resigned as MP or are you under strict orders not to because the matter is before the courts. If so, would you speak to the issues of child abuse in any form or format that are occurring in the land? Now that the election is over and you (or is it Skerrit?) have won convincingly, do you plan to address or speak to this vexing issue during your tenure as an MP for Soufriere? If not, this will be a betrayal to our most vulnerable citizens and a colossal failure on your part. That is your first check point on your march towards making the Soufriere constituency great as you so eloquently remarked.
But congratulations to the ‘SISTAH’ and I must say with all due respect, she looked very progressive and professional in her red glittering business attire the other day when she accepted the nomination to contest the by election. She is also well spoken, highly educated, and telegenic. But looks are sometimes are very deceiving and all that glitters is not gold and sometimes danger is lurking around the bend. If she was my younger ‘biological Sister’ I would go the end of the earth and give her all the love, affection, attention and encourage her to run as fast and as far away from Skerrit and his red Labour crew as humanly possible. This young debonair lady with a bright future should not get entangled with this Labour party which is nothing but Skerrit’s playground.
Well my only hope is that the long arm of the law, hindsight and bright lens of history will place this in clearer perspective in time. Until then Ms. Denise, just remember that many view your victory as having been laced with alleged big unaccounted money from passport sales, hate, a high concentration of arrogance and the seeds and plants of division. Nevertheless, if you can, please send an olive branch with no thorns to Mr. Linton and the opposition. Please convey to him in words and indeed, unlike Skerrit, that he is welcome in your constituency at anytime because like you- like me, he is 100% Dominican.
Reject Skerrit’s politics of hate and division which is driven by fear and solidified by ignorance and arrogance Ms. Denise or should I say Hon. Denise- try to endorse and embrace the politics of unity, tolerance and goodwill. For God knows that Dominica needs all of it at this hour.
I wish you well.

Dr. Finn you are so pathetic. The sum total of all that you said in this miserable display of what you really do not know. Please Dr. Finn enjoy your life in the great United States. Please, please avoid offering any thoughts on who is best suited to lead Dominica. Because when you do. you speak down to us as though your doctorate (medicines) mean anything to us.
Hello Ms. Simpson, thanks for taking the time to read the article. Instead of trying to engage in an educated and informative debate, you choose to denigrate and insult. Your response may give some indication of who is more pathetic- me or you? The last time I checked Dominica was a democracy and one is free to criticize government and the opposition.
When we speak at each other instead of to each other, it not only decreases us individually and collectively. It may also indicate our degree of civility. Do me a favour, don’t let politics and politicians define you, your behavior and thought processes.
Next time please try to engage in debate and discussion if you are able or willing, other wise one will make assumptions of who and what you are; Just a word to the wise. Before I go will you agree with me that whether we are currently residing in La Plaine or London, Woodford Hill or Washington DC, we all love Dominica the land of our birth.
Thanks, Emanuel Finn
Dr. Finn
Great advice except that almost all of it you should have paid attention to and applied to yourself, in my view that is!
Perhaps if you had not been talking at Denise and denigrating her success and attempting to decrease her individually and the voters of her constituency collectively, by attributing her win to plywood and galvanise Miss Simpson might have been encouraged to engage in a civil debate.
You know what they say about pointing fingers and where they point back doctor.
Brilliant article Dr Finn…
The man is a BAD Prime Minister because he is manipulative of the powers of his office. He has real difficulty in not being overwhelmed with feelings of hate and revenge/retribution. Such behavioural traits are common with EVIL people. If he paid more attention to revitalising the decreped Dominican economy by showing his skills, competence, know how etc to turn things around then I’d believe more in his stewardship but I’m just leaning nothing at all from the man. He must be ranked by now as being one of the worse Prime Miniters in living history.
Proverbs: 29:18 – In the multitude of the evil ones a people is breached and he that keeps the law is blessed.
Benediction
Neither is my favourite, but you even talk about manipulation and hate in the context of one leader? Honestly, who has been fomenting hate for fifteen or more years on Q95 and elsewhere, morning, noon and night about one man so that many Dominicans hate the man so much they can’t bear to hear his name. Of course he is no saint!
On the other hand, so many people have been manipulated out of their independence of thought; so many have been manipulated out of their hard earned money for selfish purposes; so many were manipulated to believe that this recent public outcry was about protecting children when it really was removing the “threat” Joshua Francis. Now he has been removed he is suddenly innocent until proven guilty, no more talk about children, we simply move to the next potential trouble spot – Marigot Hospital!
And the other leader is not yet even in the seat of real power. I’m sure you don’t want to see what he will do if he ever gets there!
Lenovo et is already and.
another reason Da is going nowhere fast. and Skerrit is in power with his et Al/opportunists.
You guys can’t do anything well not even write.
The third largest Island in the Caribbean with the smallest population that means there is enough for everybody. It is not what your country can do for you but, is what you can do for your country. The country is only allow one PM AND that post is already filled. Find some ways and means to contribute rather than you sit and criticize. He who writes glass without the g Takes away the L and that is he. NO OIL,GOLD OR SILVER IN ANY COUNTRY they are regarded as poor. To be a good Leader you must learn how to deal with criticism
What I don’t get to understand that the same peoples writing commentary live in the same situation and do nothing to tackle the problem but still they are always writing what they think we in Dominica should do. I think you all should start a movement were you base and then extend , than you continue to being a coward hidding behind dno shady polictcal affiliations
Mr. Finn, When are you going to stop that hypocrisy. All of a sudden, the late Pierre Charles was a good, humble and honest man. Do you forget the barrage of insults and derogative things that was said about this leader by you and your operatives…………SHAME. Go support your CROOKED Hillary and leave our distinguished leader alone. ….food for thought…. All of a sudden, you forget it’s your God Eddison and your cabal that introduced galvanize and plywood. …… HYPOCRITE.
You all have not demonstrated or proposed anything different. So in essence you all just want to be the ones in the money.
At least propose legalizing gambling, medical marijuana, duty-free, tax exemption of some sort to attract new businesses…. whatever it takes to grow an economy. But we are not hearing any of that from your team, all we hearing you want to take the place of Skeritt and his boys with your hands on the money to become the new millionaires. Electorates say…’Not Gon Happen’, come better for next election. Good luck.
Great article Mr.Finn,but my only interest and concern now is about a revolution to get rid of scarit and his rogue regime!
The content of your commentary does not support the headline you are alluding to.Your assessment of the by election is not based on empirical knowledge, you have used your political beliefs to make such assessment most of which is recycled political rhetoric.
You have said something which i find to be very cynical, quote “Of course I would want to believe that there are still a few remaining “open-minded,” “non-judgmental” Labour supporters who do not display reprehensible levels of ignorance and hate as well” what you want to believe is you personal choice. When you use words such as “open-minded” and “non-judgmental” I wonder if you apply these standards to yourself when making judgements, you have clearly not shown that to Ms. Denise Charles.
You are chastising Ms. Denise Charles in her victory saying her victory was a result of the politics of big money, and them praising Hillary Clinton victory, wasn’t that politics of big money, what a paradox. To continue
Let who is without sin cast the first stone. Who is more guilty, a UWP parl. rep accused of a crime or a DLP parl. rep accused of the very same crime? UWP trying to make it look like their party more innocent than the DLP party so I ask the question, Who is more honorable, a party who kicked out the accused from its executive and holds the accused in her bosom as an honorable parl.. rep. and member of parliament, or a party where the accused meekly resigned from offices of parl. rep., minister and member of parliament?
There is no honor in the UWP party when it holds on to a parl. rep. accused of a terrible crime. Where is the honor when in the next sitting of parliament UWP presents the accuse to all the sexually abused Dominicans and say to them “look what we offer to you…….the truth to power!”
That is an ( I’s ) have vote in parliament to have him kicked out and to be pushed under not a bus but one of the big mark trucks carry I g sand from the corrupted 18 million dollar bridge project. Then only then it will be there for all see clearly now that the rains have gone the double standards, the hypocrisy and the deceit that epitomizes the man Skerrit and the DLP for all that matters now is the winning of the Newtown seat nothing else. Francis has been used to achieve that selfish political end.
All this article does is make the waters of the democratic process murky, cloudy in an attempt to mislead people into thinking there is another winner! Labour Won Period!
You realize that Skeritt was not the candidate running for re-election right?
you also realize the candidate won through a democratic election process that was fair and transparent right?
why is it that when UWP wins they are not corrupt or bribing nor does Skeritt accuse them of such yet, when UWP looses… which is often then always cry foul.
Pilate said i find no fault with your king, the charges you brought against him are un proven, therefore do you want me to release him or Barabass? the Crowd shouted crusifie him! crusifie Him. Better than a fith Gradeer, want to know if all those allegations brought against our DR/ Pm, Day in Day out, and up till now no one can find proof, or rather no one seems to have the nuts, and/ courage to find our DR/Pm guilty of any wrong doings. some may say that evey Rope has an End, but its easy to indite a ham sandwich than our Dr/ Pm. Where i reside they invistage crooked politicians, and when found guilty they jail them. So if they just RAaaaaaaaaa, and rant and theirs nothing concreate against our Dr/Pm. In my opinion let the man live his life. put up or shut up!!! provocation, by design, bring it on make me laugh cause its Friday, and i need some Laughs. Bring it on, my opinion. Only in Dominica!!!
@BRp- stupid……
“Where i reside they investigate crooked politicians, and when found guilty they jail them. ”
BRP you are so correct, what you are not saying maybe deliberately is that where you live the judiciary is independent from the government and politicians have no influence over them, or dare to because they will be held in contempt. Case in point, the Bin Bobol, the Fertilizer bobol, were obvious in the open that these guys escalated the prices and on the other use brother to purchase, all against the law where breaches and conflict of interests involving family to purchase was done and the Director of Audit appears to be blind and dunce to this open thievery and the result is, leave our PM, we love him. PM`s may steal, conduct favoured Red Clinic by abusing and using the vulnerability of the poor, desperate for money and used simply for votes & blind allegiance and entertain hundreds of these mothers quing at PM`s office for crumbs, bread from a supposed gang leader. State Thievery, yes?
You see what “inditing”a ham sandwich does to you? It makes you BRpppppp. Be careful what you ingest brother.
You people STILL have not realized that the continued calling for rejection is not working?Your hatred for our PM has no barriers you continue with the same rhetoric but the results speak for themself,less votes for UWP and more for DLP,I will say no more.
Barguy voley then. It had to take all that energy and desperation for all you to win a by- election. Guts all you have to say it was fair man. All you know plenty money spend in short space of time the question is where was all that money since 2014, where was it. meh ban maychastey zout yea. You all know the truth but turning a blind eye to it and when people who seeing the injustice and call it out you saying is jealous they jealous and hate they hate. You all are so dishonest and wicked its not funny. But you know what is most hurtful thing is that ourvchildren and grand children, the youth are witnesses this blatant dishonesty and trickery being performed at the highest level. Obviously they will live the example you all set and that does not bother you one bit.maygusay
All that money your leader spent on a little by-election in Soufriere and he still only end up with 38% of the votes, just like in 2014 but fewer people turned out to put their cross on the ballot paper this time. That is an incontrovertible fact.
Dr. Finn,
What you fail to realize is that bright young minds like that of Ms. Denise Charles will continue to sell their collective souls to the Labour Party machine for money, because this is where the money is.
Their stance is that after studying hard for 4-8 years, obtaining Bachelor’s, Master’s and Ph.D or M.D’s, they feel that earning a paycheck of $5000.00 plus dollars is no less than their due.
Our esteemed P.M/Doctor knows that stance/mind-set very well. As a matter of fact, he plays into it to lure them into his party.
After he has bought their souls for the required 30 pieces of silver, you think people like Denise Charles, Kenneth Darroux and et al going to remember where they let go their scruples and principles???
Come again Dr. Finn.
Believe it or not these people are not as smart as most people think!
You only have to review the linguists ( or shall I say the vocabulary) of this so called doctor Darroux and you can use him as an example of those who poses as graduates; nevertheless, are unable to succeed in their chosen profession!
That is why they turn to politics, and become toys and puppets to Skerrit who is less scholastically, and academically educated than they are. On the other hand it is true that politics pays more than a medical doctor earns from a government pay-roll; it is even worst when they go into private practice.
Reasons are the population of Dominica is so small there are not enough patients to share to make any one doctor practice profitable enough to earn a decent living.
They claimed that there are seventy thousand people resident in Dominica, that is a myth, but even if there are that many; and assuming you have fifty (50) practicing physicians in the country, each doctor…
Continuing:
Assuming you have fifty (50) practicing physicians in the country, each doctor would need to have one (1,400) four hundred regular visiting patients per month in order to survive. The more doctors the lower is the ratio.
The probability of that happening in Dominica anytime soon is practically zero! The same applies to lawyers, and that is why they all sell their very soul to the devil for their survival.
There is another foolish belief in Dominica, that some believe because someone went to a college or university, they possess some sort of supper intelligence, and politically they can work wonders in Dominica; if that held true; then Dominica would be the wealthiest place on the planet, unfortunately, talk is our main industry, which is none productive industry; if anything those people who gave their life; body, and soul to Skerrit, are a bunch of counter productive people; they are not contributing anything to the country.
It is my observation that they…
Finally:
It is my observation that they like to be called “doctor” so they use any means to get a PhD.; a PhD is not difficult to obtained; here is Los Angeles, one can go to school on a Saturdays only period: and before you know it they have a PhD in their hip pocket; it is not a big deal. Some of these people even medical doctors, if you engage them in a conversation, and take them out of their field of study they may not even understand where you are going with your topic.
Only in Dominica people make gods out of people because the claim to have some degree, and that is the problem why nothing is accomplish in the country. When I was a kid growing up in Wesley; any student who showed more proficiency than the rest people refer to them as “a brain” that nonsense is still going on in Dominica today.
Dr. Finn I would appreciate an independent none partisan commenatry than the bias misrepresentation of facts and persons you have written about.
E.C.$.5000/month is chicken feed. Ask Skerrit if you don’t believe me!
King got no idea what is happening in Dominica…Keep on listening to gossip on Q and continue writing garbage..
We are right on Q and not to any Salop politics of the Kairians.
Thank God for Q 95
“But congratulations to the ‘SISTAH’ and I must say with all due respect, she looked very progressive and professional in her red glittering business attire the other day when she accepted the nomination to contest the by election.

Back to the drawing board with that one Doctor.
And you know what I love about Denise Charles is when she says it is God’s call, that she is now the representative of the Point Michelle people, I love that. Now the same GOD is calling on Denise to tell us the truth about the Petro Caribe accounts, the same GOD is calling on Denise to account to us for the Petro Caribe debt owed to Venezuela and yes the same GOD is calling on Denise to pay with immediate effect the outstandings Petro Carbe monies owed to Venezuela because the same GOD who called Denise knows that the Venezuelan people are in need of their money now more than ever before. So continue to honour GOD’s calling Denise by making good on these outstanding matters. GOD will be pleased if you would exposed also the many irregularities and wrongs that allowed you now to be Parl.Rep. If you can do that with all honesty and sincerity you would truely be living up to GOD’s calling. Otherwise you may be playing with fire my sister.
I will paraphrase Mark Twain. ” If you had made the accumulation of ignorance the study of your life, you could not have graduated with higher honors than today”. That elusive morality patented by the UWP has never found expression in fact or act. In fact, your leader stated that his workers were very methodical in planning and executing the campaign but their efforts were ignored by 70 % of the electorate. To excoriate the winner for the right to free political association is a deceitful act and infra dig coming from a professional of your pedigree.
what are you really saying……Try not to quote Mark Twain, find a quote form your vocabulary and please do so after you have really comprehend the nature of Dominica`s politics and its poverty created by this corrupt Labour party
There is one constant in politics and that is corruption exists in every government all over the world. In the US, those who are caught are punished, condemned by the evidence; but here you calumniate and slander without repent. I suggest that instead of sitting on the evidence, MAN UP and present it to the people in the raw.
Who are you? Skerrits new Personal Assistant?
You to smart for them man Winston.. Not even Linton with his helter-skelter, slapdash vocabulary can comprehend you.
Hmmmm. My friend If you are in a race for the 100 meter dash with your rival competitor. While you played by the rules and remained ethical to the sport you enter the race even having drawn to the attention of the officials that your competitor is not playing to the rules. Your rival then beats you to the finish line in a time seventy percent to your 30 percent of the expected time. Your fears of your competitor being a cheat is realised for it is evident that your competitor was on a banned substance, on steroids, had manipated the track to his/her advantage with the knowledge of the authorities, had even gone as far as putting impediments in your way that ensured your finish time would not be at par and although she had a fault start was allowed to run the race. Would you hold the same view as you do and secondly would you congratulate your colleague on winning.
Well said!
Winston, you obviously graduated with high honors.
This article hits the nail on the head and encompasses the frightening reality of the political arena in little Dominica..I am always appalled and horrified by statements made by the prime minister which sometimes borders on arrogance and blatant ignorance,something that is replicated by the majority of his followers.What’s quiet frightening is ,as a leader of men and a country the PM should think of what comes out of his mouth and monitor his behavior because in the final analysis, he has become an embarrassment to his country and the labor party. Dominicans wake up your sleepwalking into total catastrophe.
You’re on point bro! Your buddy from Soufriere.
Bernard what is more disturbing is the youth, the children of this land are being exposed to this blatant in your face ignorance and arrogance and deception and deceit coming from
the highest level and therefore it is becoming the norm to lie, cheat, deceive and to be bold about it. it is very bvious in the society today that t
Folks are living by that example. The frightening part of all this malfeasance is that our so called religious and moral leaders in society say and do nothing about this growing malice. Instead the same hypocrites when addressing young people will say to them they must work hard at becoming trustworthy, honest and to aspire to be a leader a prime minister like Skerrit. I mean how much more dishonest a d ingenious can a society get to its own people. Dominica my friend is a failed State.
Skerrit will one day soon,at the end of his reign have many questions to answer…This is most likely the reason why he is so desperate to hold on to power….But this day shall come.WONDER IF HE SLEEPS WELL!!
YOU SPEAK OF HATE COMING FROM YOU……….STOP HATING
Holding any politician responsible for speaking about child abuse (which is reprehensible) simply because two politicians have been accused of the crime is nonsense. The crime that these two men are accused of represents a moral failing on their part and has nothing to do with the government in power. These relentless accusations like yours are ignorant and simple-minded. I hope the rapists are found and punished but let us hold them responsible and not assign guilt to the government.
Also, I have been seeing much hatred directed at the government by the op[position that the other way around. The opposition renders itself ineffective when it adopts a blanket policy of opposing everything that the government does. UWP should pick its battles and stop the ongoing policy of tilting at windmills.
Nothng to do with the Government in power? Especially if it involves a gov’t minister and a minister of parliament who not only break laws but commit violations against the youth, who the government has a duty to protect? nothing to do with the government? it is a shame! and the other party members especially the women and those with daughters should chastize any such behavior instead of bigging the man up on stage calling him a real man and saying he has grown 10 feet in their eyes because he stepped down. that is a man? In time, the people in those same constituencies will start to cry again, and ask people for money and handouts because the country hard or tight. they that make their beds. they should lay in it. dont ask me for one cent.
that goes for both parties red and blue. bring back the dignity of the freedom party. that was a party that would not have stood for this nonsense.
Let who is without sin cast the first stone. Who is more guilty, a UWP parl. rep accused of a crime or a DLP parl. rep accused of the very same crime? UWP trying to make it look like their party more innocent than the DLP party so I ask the question, Who is more honorable, a party who kicked out the accused from its executive and holds the accused in her bosom as an honorable parl.. rep. and member of parliament, or a party where the accused meekly resigned from offices of parl. rep., minister and member of parliament?
There is no honor in the UWP party when it holds on to a parl. rep. accused of a terrible crime. Where is the honor when in the next sitting of parliament UWP presents the accuse to all the sexually abused Dominicans and say to them “look what we offer to you…….the truth to power!”
Jaded- the issue of child abuse was and should be front and center in the by- election campaign. Do you agree that it might be a silent epidemic in Dominica among the poorer segments of the society? Look as a woman don’t you think that is an issues Denise should be concerned about and use her platform and visibility to speak to if she can? This issue is not only solved in a the court of law- it is a societal problem and all hands should be on deck. I think you have displayed your inability to engage in a serious debate on an important subject- maybe it does not affect you and yours but it affects others. That issue should be on the front and center of women with a voice like Denise. .I think you are the one that have displayed your simple mindedness and indifference Jaded. Think again….
A minister of government and a member of the opposition in parliament have both been accused of the crime of child abuse/rape. That is something that ALL Dominicans should condemn. To make this a political strategy to attempt to win an election is foolish and misguided. Free societies do not look to government or political leaders for moral leadership. The people should read and follow the teachings in their bible/koran/torah, etc. Be no part of the world – the bible tells us.
Jaded
Don’t let them jade you. I read the first paragraph and I am still trying to understand the intent and meaning of the two negatives used there. I also read the rest of the article and I could agree with most of it if it were a little more balanced. I have always had a difficulty understanding how people can listen to what comes out from one party morning noon and night, consider it alright and then viciously apply all the derogatory terms to the response from the other side, much less vicious in my view but also unacceptable.
It gets worse when it comes from people who lay claim to superior knowledge and one assumes analytical thinking. Fortunately or unfortunately depending on your perspective, men from both parties stand accused of the same or similar misconduct. One does a full scale resignation. The other is hypocritically and expediently made a public spectacle in a party position but remains in the important position and all the hype about child protection …
continued…
which his party pretended to have high on its agenda and even its platform for the bye-election has died with the results. It is no longer offensive for him to be associated with the party to which he still belongs and to continue representation of people in the Parliament. I even hear that the latest position is that he is innocent until convicted. I guess that is a new principle which has just emerged. His party’s court does not need to rule on that one.
In spite of all those double standards, Miss Denise Charles another Dominican with constitutional rights like any other is tainted beyond repair for putting herself forward as a candidate in place of the man who “left”. This is what baffles me about the opposition party and I am now realising, all its supporters. Its like a character trait peculiar to them. They spew out hate and venom at every turn but are the first to define hate in other quarters.
That’s Dominica’s dilemma which poison to pick!
Your thoughts and opinions are jaded, seriously jaded for two reasons, that you are blind to the reality of Dominica and ignorant to the tact of the abuse of children, poor mother and families of the indoctrinated, Red Clinic, clinically imposed on vulnerable people in need of food, housing, water education and an improvement in their health care and not subjected to pit latrines, and promises of flush toilet where there is no plan and pipe borne water in many communities. This is the leader and corrupt labour government you seem to support and promote as credible. We must be living in a different Dominica to what we see and experience.
who wrote this nonsense?
I suppose a Dominican who can think clearly Calibishe wrote this…….unleash the dogs now.
Apparently someone filled with hate. His hatred is spilled in almost every sentence in the article.
He reminded me of a KKK member I once saw on the Oprah Winfrey Show. He was telling her, as this writer is telling de Sistah who won the Soufriere Constituency in the by-election (how sad to try and diminish the hard work and ability of Denise Charles ) he (they) the KKK hates niggars but she Oprah is not a niggar. She told him, words to the effect that she has news for him that she is also a black person.
We should remind the writer that Dame Eugenia Charles told Freedomites they must do everything possible to make sure that the UWP never ever gets back into government. Why, I would ask the writer the Dame said that?
And what is he saying about Roseau South? It’s the UWP’s fault or the individual? When the by-election is called; we hope the UWP will not send a candidate. If they do, what will the writer say then? What would their campaign be about? SMH
