    Roosevelt Skerrit must go The price of the passport should be increased Passports and citizenships of suspicious people should be revoked The world and England embrace Dominica again after Skrit England’s warning on the visa ban is a sign that Skrit must go The credit must be returned to the Dominica passport The fall of Dominica must be stopped before it is too late

      And just when Arshia must go? You sound so foolish and stupid, repeating what you hear others say.

    Corrupt, incumbent politicians tremble when such a large percentage of the electorate is disquiet about their rulership. I am absolutely certain that the inept, scandalous incumbency did not imagine this enormous number of attendees not only would show up but to be so passionate of getting rid of them. Keep up the momentum true patriots of Dominica. Spiritual Fyah a go bun dem.

      Let me answer you just in case you are a stranger or just being flat out stupid 8) ;
      1. From Skerraat and the Cabalists here and afar including Mr. Abdullah.
      2. From Dcans near and far who are not Cabalists but hell bent destroying Dca along with Cabalists because they benefit from the scraps rolling off the table.

      Did you get it now? Good! :twisted:

    UWP and their acolytes with the support of DNO are always saying Dominicans are afraid to attend UWP political meetings because of victimization and harassment by the DLP government.DNO and UWP agreed there was a huge gathering last night,so victimization and harassment is out the window.In the 2014 election UWP received 17,587 votes.In 2019,the last election UWP contested they got 16,424 votes.The Arch where UWP got their so called HUGE crowd is in Roseau Central.In their last election in 2019,UWP got 780 votes in Roseau Central.That same year they got 2,134 votes in Roseau North,768 votes in the Roseau valley and 1,938 votes in Roseau South.A total of 5,710 votes.Yet DNO,with all your 86 pictures,your huge crowd,your massive gathering there was less than 800 people at the Arch.So that’s it for your fake news,propaganda and lies.The Dominican people have rejected UWP and will continue to reject UWP.

    DNO, your journalists are very good at taking and publishing photos. Who are they? I have never heard a DNO journalist ask a question in a press conference
    . Who are the journalists in Dominica apart from Curtis, Matt, and Carliste? DNO, please name a few others.

    I wished that we had 1/3 of the number of people who are gathered at this political meeting in our open air gospel meetings. I’m very glad that so many people turned out in spite of the scare tactics by Roosevelt de scare-it. We definitely need a change in government. Now, many speakers referenced Pharaoh and the Israelites in Egypt, but they failed to mention that the Israelites loved God and served Him. Dominicans are far removed from the Israelites when comes to loving The True and Living God. And you will see by the number of thumb down if this comments are accepted by DNO. Roosevelt has ruled Dominicans for over 20 years because Dominicans have forgotten God, they’re not thankful for God’s blessings. Besides being ruthlessly ruled they are being overrun by foreigners and gangsters, fraudsters, criminals of the highest degree. The condition in Egypt was better than it is in Dominica today. Garbage is everywhere, villages look like landfills, people are afraid to talk and assemble.

      Your wish regarding the gathering at the political meeting as compared to
      to your open gospel meetings is a deception, it’s like asking water and oil to mix together. Now, why are you using your religious beliefs with biblical
      quotes to give credence to your political partisan beliefs, lol. Where do you get the authority to suggest and make judgement about The people of Dominica, saying “Dominicans have forgotten God, they’re not thankful for God’s blessings.” Is Dominica really ruthlessly ruled and overrun by foreigners gangsters, fraudsters and criminals of the highest degree, wow. Do you know what a forked tongue is, you must not make irrational assumptions. You have a right to express your political views, thanks to this medium which operates in a Democratic Country.

      When you say people are afraid to talk but at the same time you have the liberty to openly express your opinions against the Government without
      retribution, isn’t that paradoxical, so long.

    Based on the large number of people at this gathering, it is clear that Change Must Come because people are fed up with this corrupt D L P government.

      That large crowd is all UWP will get at the next General Election. That is just not enough to get rid of Roosevelt Skerrit. Skerrit is here to say, believe it or not. Don’t be fooled by that crowd of 3,000 people compared to a population of 80,000 people. 3,000 for you 77,000 for Skerrit. Can you do the maths?
