Leader of parliamentary opposition, Lennox Linton, has written to the Chief of Police, Daniel Carbon seeking immediate action to have the Dominica Labour Party (DLP) candidate Dr. Vince Henderson, barred from the upcoming Grand Bay by-election.
In a letter dated November 11, 2021, to Carbon, copied to the Chairman of Dominica’s Electoral Commission, the Chief Elections Officer, the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and Dr. Henderson, Linton contends that the DLP nominee is in violation of Dominica’s constitution and electoral law which prohibits anyone in the public service, and/or in a position of emolument in service to the State, from being accepted to run in any election on nomination day.
“As Leader of the Parliamentary Opposition of the Commonwealth of Dominica, and as my civic duty, I have a responsibility to ensure that the laws of our country are faithfully and fairly enforced. That, especially in cases where I believe a crime may have been committed with regard to our electoral laws,” Linton wrote.
In 2016, Dr Henderson was appointed as Ambassador of the Commonwealth of Dominica to the United States of America (USA) and the Organization of American States (OAS). As of nomination day for the by-election, November 9th, 2021, there was no public announcement by the Government of Dominica that Henderson was recalled or had resigned or tendered his credentials of withdrawal, from his position, Linton states.
“Despite the absence of any such public announcement of resignation from his ambassadorial office of emolument in service to the State, Mr. Henderson executed the requisite statutory declaration of qualification for election to the House of Assembly in breach of the qualifying criteria for such election provided in our Constitution and electoral laws,” the opposition leader insisted in his letter.
Linton further claims that Dr. Henderson appears to have made a “false or untrue declaration” in the nomination process for which he may be criminally liable under the Statutory Declarations Act Chapter 5:53.
“Therefore, please accept this letter as a formal request that the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force interviews Vince Henderson, Dominica Labour Party candidate for the November 25, 2021 by-election,” the letter stated.
The Opposition Leader further requested from the Chief of Police, that during of the course of the proposed investigation, Henderson provides CID with duly authenticated letters, under the oath of the Minister of Foreign Affairs or Chief Establishment Officer, confirming that such letters of resignation and withdrawal of credentials to the OAS/USA were tendered prior to November 9, 2021.
“Where such letters cannot be provided to CID by Mr. Henderson, upon request, a crime has been committed under electoral laws and criminal charges must be issued,” he advised.
Linton further appealed to Carbon to act with urgency in investigating and/or prosecuting this matter as according to him, “time is of the essence.”
The Opposition Leader also requested of the Police Chief that he immediately notify the Director of Public Prosecutions of his finding upon investigation so that she may move with alacrity in charging Dr. Henderson with violation of our electoral laws, if he is unable to tender the duly authenticated documents of resignation/withdrawal referenced above.
“Do note that I am willing to provide whatever assistance may be needed in the investigation of this matter,” the Opposition Leader said as he closed his letter to the Chief of Police.
@Gary, I’m intelligent enough to think for myself and don’t need to be spoon fed unlike you who can’t even clearly elucidate an argument and point of view. Oh, you adherent of your Roman cult maxim of law. So because one who witnessed a sexual assault against a minor first goes to the police and not the parents are you saying that protocol wasn’t followed so there is no crime to answer nor for the police to investigate? The Roman Maxim applies to you until you stop and think for yourself. Once a crime is reported especially one pertaining to matters of state and the constitution the police should kick off an investigation to ascertain the facts. In the case of the dual citizenship involving the double doctorate dude, the corrupt judge didn’t question protocol but wanted the prosecution to commit a crime and go steal the man’s passport and bring it to court. Yes, the electoral commission is a negligent body. It won’t stand up when it’s powers are being abrogated by Skerritt.
Be content with your belief and understanding.
DNO and UWP you should be very aware of what the threat to national security is. The USA I am trying to bring to the attention of the US authorities everybody is doing it we know it is over. The police here does not investigate cases here it is not credible – I am aware.
Dominica cannot afford to have the UWP leading the country. They do not have good judgement the type of garbage that they participate in – it is really sad and creating a national security nightmare for Dominica like what is here in the USA today.
@En Ba La
You are now acting like a functional illiterate. It’s clear that you don’t know the meaning of national security..Do you have shame glands? You are such an embarrassment!!!
En Ba La
This is a so called university guy who writes such unadulterated gibberish!
@Ron Charles, if you go to the police to report that there is drug activity being carried out by an individual, the police will do the investigation to substantiate your claim. They won’t ask you to bring them the proof positive. Why does the police ask for the help of the public in matters of crime and then the police go and investigate to see if the information that was given stands the test. Therefore the police can go and investigate whether what Lennox reported is in fact correct. Looks like you and the compromised police only want to investigate when it suits you. Hope you see the folly of your argument.
Why are you that silly, you must not just make such general statement regarding crime reporting and attribute it to what you are told by Linton. The reporting of a crime has protocols, there are different types of crimes and each one has specific protocols for reporting prior to police investigation. The so-called alleged crime by Linton would first have to be dealt with the Electoral Commission, that is where his letter should be addressed assuming he was right. Do you really think that DLP, and Dr. Vince Henderson would overlook such a thing as Linton claim in submitting a candidate in a by election. Do really think that the Electoral commission is that negligent to lets this happen. I told you before, remove that blue veil, think, is this how you want to be continually led by the silly antics of Linton and the UWP. There is a Roman cult maxim of law, he who would be deceived let him be deceived.
Everything can be back dated…
The question is when did the United States of America (USA) Federal Government, the Organization of American States (OAS) and the United Nations (UN) receive their Diplomatic Communiques from the Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica informing that Mr. Vince Henderson was no longer Ambassador to the USA, OAS, and UN.
Can, Honorable Lennox Linton, the Leader of the Parliamentary Opposition in the Commonwealth of Dominica get copies of authenticated documents as proof. Otherwise, you a fighting a losing battle.
If Mr. Vince Henderson knows that he was illegally nominated then he should do the honorable thing and withdraw the by election race. However, if he did then he should stay in the race.
By the way what is the Electoral Office saying about that? Was any due process done on the candidates? What about His Excellency, President Charles Savarin, and the Honorable Dennis Byron. I wonder what are their professional opinion on this…
I am wondering if there is any due process that the Electoral Office can do. Is this in the law? To me if the man made a false declaration, as if that is a matter for the court.
Workers aoplogists make me laugh often … and this is one of those times … Are you telling me that between Dr. Henderson (who, let’s not forget , was Labour’s campaign manager fr the last 2 general elections) , SC Astaphan, Skeritt himself, Lennox Lawrence among others (various Doctors and lawyers in the cabinet), none of them were familiar with nomination laws? Give me a break. As usual the gesture politics which forms Linton’s entire playbook is not going to move Grandbay or Waitukubuli one millimeter forward. Rather than focus people’s attention on what can ne done (and there is a LOT) to improve the lives of citizens and how he could facilitate this better than the incumbents or Vince Henderson, he rather lead his supporters down this rabbit hole leading nowhere. Como siempre. Lord knows we need opposition.. but not this , surely.
@Calibishie Warrior “he rather leads his supporters down this rabbit hole”. Hahahahahaha! I like that line; you made me laugh. But it is so true!
Unfortunately, those supporters continue to follow him like the deaf leading the blind. They can hear him saying to them “come along!” But he cannot hear them asking him, “where are we going to?” It must be because they don’t know that he is deaf, so they just continue to follow –good heavens!
What are you trying to convey? No one with even an iota of common sense gives your comments a second glance. They never once stimulate thought. In fact, they are deleterious to one’s mental health. These monotonous, thoughtless, absurd statements you only serve to pollute the forum.
Let me ask you this. Do you consult with your most trusted advisors – Clown Man, Dog Biter, Pea brain Gary and fake degrees ds before you post? If so, change them!
Based on the information outlined in the above correspondence it does appear that Mr. Linton is within his rights. It would be a travesty if Mr. Henderson were to contest the elections before resigning from ALL public office which he holds. Can’t fault the leader of the Opposition on this one, unless resignation letters were submitted but which he (Linton) failed to acknowledge.
Let’s be brutally frank. Mr. Skerrit and his cabinet of devotees are bare-bottom amoral, corrupt and lawless. They have escaped the stiff arm of the law, up to this moment, with the silence from the media, business sector, clergy and many other enablers in civil society.
Where is the widespread outrage from all the machinations, skulduggery and shenanigans committed by this monocratic ruling regime? When a society remains disinterested and apathetic, in light of unconscionable wrongs by any incumbent government, this only serves to embolden those sitting in the seat of political power.
We have to collectively use both our voices and feet to, once and for all, effect a paradigm shift in the way we think and do things.
Look out for an influx of Haitians who may be used as bargaining chips to tip the scale in Vince favor. Because every tricks in the evil book to give the liar the victory. We cannot allow this to happen. There’s a reason why so many foreigners are allowed in our country, to keep a dictator in power. These da%$@n foreigners don’t give a sh$&#t about our country. They help Skerrit remain in power to hurt us, Dominicans. I say to get rid of all UNDOCUMENTED FOREIGNERS NOW. Let Dominicans and Dominicans alone handle our affairs. “Too many cooks (foreigners) spoils the soup. So get them out. The corrupt government will not do it; so we the citizens must RISE UP and clean up the mess the labor department has willfully created. Go handbag 👜 Go. Go Grand Bay people Go. The entire island of Dominica is leaning and depending on you. Don’t let your country down. Take no bribe, take no silver nor gold. Because these $$$$ money are blood 🩸 money and you won’t live to enjoy it.
If as Lennox Linton alleges Vince Henderson has violated election laws he should not be allowed to contest the Grandbay election.. The matter on investigation needs to be proven so appropriate action can be taken These matters should be handled according to law and Constitution and should not be subject to any propaganda emanating from bogus named propagandists
Clayton, you are not sounding like an educated man in that post above.
Why did you start with an “If”? Does it mean that you are not sure that Lennox knows what he is doing? And if so, why did you jump to that conclusion?
How do you know who, and what is the “propaganda emanating from bogus named propagandists”? You people are not easy nah!
Your comments should be roundly rejected. Absolute nonsense! Your criticisms are meant to denigrate others but they only expose your incapability to think rationally.
I usual respect age. There’s nothing to respect about you. Leave God’s people alone.
I ordered five 5 Gallon size buckets of popcorn 🍿 and some chicken wings to fry. My doors will be bolted tight and phone off the hook. Waiting to see de korbah that’s going to take place, come the 25th. I wish for peace but I see some real ugly Sh$#&T going down.
DA can never be a real place.
Skerrit making it look like G-Bay ain’t got someone smart enough to represent it’s ppl, but then again that is what we voted for.
If a man is the leader of a political party,and because of his high- level of stupidity he is always losing election how would a man like that be called?And if followers want to win an election,and they following the man with the high-level of stupidity,who cannot win an election,how do you call them?
What a laugh!!! Is this a joke? Why do blind followers continue to follow Politrickians that peddle foolishness?
@ Colombo
You deliberately remained very vague. What are you afraid of? Are you a man with balls? Its only politically corrupt people who are afraid to bring forward their point of view. Are you one?
I ask my self that about labourites every day
Our law says Vince has nothing to prove.Linton is the one making the report,he should provide evidence to show what he is saying is true.Vince does not have to prove what Linton is saying it true.THAT IS THE LAW.UWP could not prove Skerrit had a French passport,there was no evidence.Today there are uninformed idiots like % talking BS about Skerrit said no law no constitution.Sec 32(1)(a) of the constitution of Dominica say Skerrit has the right to be nominated as a candidate to contest elections..Linton must prove Vince had a contract with,and was being paid by GOVERNMENT.Also Linton must provide evidence Vince had a government contract and did not resign within 7 days of nomination.QC IBO France,RandyX and % should investigate.
It was Roosevelt who said
“ No law No constitution can prevent I, Roosevelt of Vielle case …”
So here is what I expect to hear from the commissioner;
There is no law No constitution to force I, Daniel Carbon of Veille case to do anything. I will not even open Lennox Linton letter.
Here is the problem I see:
Skerrit is from Veille case and is Vince he want by all means necessary.
Vince Henderson is from St Joseph but to become PM so Skerrit could better hide in the office of the president he wants the position.
But the police commissioner is also from St. Joseph but grew up in Veille case. So that’s the problem we have. Everything was well planned
No the question should be who does the PM think he is?
Let us assume that there is a national security issue or concern that one has and the reason as a government official requires that it be classified.
We in Dominica have too much at stake while others are simply glorifying the fact that they know what is going on on the ground in real time.
Threat to national security in the USA.
There are times when people have to make decisions which are beneficial to and in the nearest of one’s country.
I would think Ambassador Henderson is a man who can and is able to make decisions which can positively impact the country and is citizens.
There are circumstancesome and instances when one would make a decision on which should not be made public for example when faced with issues where national security and theven well being of one’s fellow citizens and it does not require a public announcement. Dominica does not have guns and bombs and we have way too much at stake and as a developing country we have to have begin having classified information that should be made public and decisions in the interest of the country.
I support him going up and this is the best decision as in this case I would mo6st definitely believe he has great judgment.
@ En Ba La
Bro you are a person with GBay roots. First learn to use punctuation marks properly. You bragg a lot about being a university student. I just went to primary school, left in standard ONE. Secondly you are a sellout to the village. You are promoting the backwardness that DLP has had GBay in for 36 years. You have bragged so many times about studying political science. Really?? DLP is abusing incumbency in GBay.. About $1000 000.00 must have been spent already in a by-election? DLP does not sell not even bakes or sweetie? Isn’t that of concern to you?? And as a GBay man you as a sell out, support that? Doors, windows, wheelchairs ran out of supply and more is promised next week? Cant you see the corruption in you red eyes??? Vince has been a TOTAL FAILURE, in St Joseph and the UN…Do you know that? Guess you know, but you too are wallowing in greed. I’ll give you the rest when i meet you in the Lalay!!
Your Wicked desciple!
Wallowing in greed. I am not.
When people are concerned about people no matter what it will always show.
I pride myself in knowing that money does not make me.
Sometimes the extreme people require makes it near impossible to be rational resulting in distress for others.
As a Grand Bay person with knowledge of what the Henderson have done I can say that Vince is to the right.
The decisions he will and call make will positively impact the Grand Bay people.
Sometimeso one has to be able to make to make decisions which impact people and he can do it I know.
People tend to do alot sometimes and cause harm to innocent people maliciously and even when evidence by their trusted people prove otherwise.
What did this recycled carpetbagger do for St. Joseph? Was anything much of significance done under his watch as a MP? He has been sucking the breast of the country for far too long. Time for the electors of Grand Bay to hasten his political demise. Grand Bay should be his Waterloo this time around.
NO LAW NO CONSTITUTION. Let’s see how this one plays out.
What is the meaning behind your comment?
All these years with the UWP and their mischievous, modus operandi of chaos, what are you expecting to play out. Have you not seem the results of such mischievous repetitive agenda. As to your opening cult mantra “NO LAW NO CONSTITUTION” gosh, haven’t you by now really understand the context in which such thing was said by the PM, keep on chanting your mantra and yes keep hoping to see how it plays, stop deceiving yourself.
In my humble opinion, I think Mr. Linton has the qualities of a very good leader. And that’s what Dominica is crying everyday for. I pray that God hears and answers our prayers. We should also thank God for people who have the country’s best interest at heart. Dominica is dirty with foreigners who love being left alone without having entered Dominica by night under the cover of darkness. Please, Mr. Linton, I hope that you will clean up Dominica. It’s not going to be easy. Because they who are responsible for the mess we are in are DIRTY PEOPLE IN LEADERSHIP.
You lie with dogs you get the fleas. Once you are closely aligned with Mr. Roosevelt Skeritt , you are bound to be embroiled in anarchy, falsity and lawlessness.You might enjoy the ‘good life’ temporarily but your reputation is permanently tarnished. Stay far away from this diseased liar.
Dominica needs a government that is accountable transparent, always above board, trustworthy, compassionate, impartial and inclusive in order to raise the standard of living for every resident boy, girl, man and woman. Why can’t our motto be: Together We All Rise-None Excluded!
Oh Lennox, Oh Lennox, you are another cry. cry baby. What are you scared of. Why did it take you that long to come up with your bogus accusations? The bye-election will go on and will not be held in abeyance all because of your shenanigans. Handbag, your candidate, will be soundly defeated at the polls.
“Where such letters cannot be provided to CID by Mr. Henderson, upon request, a crime has been committed under electoral laws and criminal charges must be issued,”. I thought that the person making the charges has to prove their allegation? Is that how our system works? Why should Vince Henderson give the police any evidence that would help Mr. Linton prove charge against him. Mr. Linton is making a serious charge against the candidacy of an individual in the upcoming bye-election and he wants the individual to help him prove whatever case he might have. Its all in Linton’s opinion. He thinks his opinion is the law. Henderson does not have to prove anything to Linton or the police for that matter. Linton has to prove his case without any assistance from Vince. That is how our system works. Mr. Linton cannot change it just because he wants it that way.
Under existing laws, it is his responsibility to assist the police to prove his case without the help of Vince Henderson.
@Ron Charles, if you go to the police to report that there is drug activity being carried out by an individual, the police will do the investigation to substantiate your claim. They won’t ask you to bring them the proof positive. Why does the police ask for the help of the public in matters of crime and then the police go and investigate to see if the information that was given stands the test. Therefore the police can go and investigate whether what Lennox reported is in fact correct. Looks like you and the compromised police only want to investigate when it suits you. Hope you see the folly of your argument.
Jonathan, that is a completely different analogy; come on man, be rational.
@Realist aka Expat, don’t try to change the subject by attacking the analogy I referenced. If you report to the police that “Joe Blow” broke into your house and stole your jewelry, are you saying that you have to bring that said jewelry to the police to prove it was stolen from you before the police will initiate an investigation? No matter how you attack the analogy the police are to investigate crimes reported to them especially crimes against the Constitution of the country. So what is the role and function of the police in crime prevention and detterence? Are citizens sufficiently trained and empowered to do the work for the police? Then why do we need them? Since the police are so compromised and acting corruptly I will question, why do we need them? It wasn’t like that in the past when police did investigative work to uncover and deter crime. Now they only protect and serve their pay master, El Supremo.
Somebody please tell me that this person writing this foolishness is not the Ron Charles that contested for UWP in the Roseau Valley. Man having lost Joshua Francis It would be hard to know the same Ronald Charles has also turned against Mr Linton too. If that’s the case I am saying to hell with Dominica and their politics and I am done! But somehow something is telling me is either that corrupt Christian or corrupt retired Police officer that used the name of Ron Charles. I just don’t believe that same Ronald Charles would do that to Dominica and the UWP because I can’t see him behaving like Judas Iscarriot even if he and Mr. Linton would have their disagreements
It is known as an agent provocateur, same as the use of counter propaganda.
“You have a right to remain silent. Anything you say or may be used against you”. Where the police have reason to question a suspect, the preceding statement is read to the person. His/her right. The accused has no responsibility to prove their guilt or innocence to the court. The person making the allegation/charge is responsible for proving their case. “Where such letters cannot be provided to CID by Mr. Henderson, upon request, a crime has been committed under electoral laws and criminal charges must be issued”. So Vince where Vince has retained his rights to be silent on the matter as he has, then Mr. Linton has concluded that Vince is guilty of a crime. Suddenly, the right to avoidance of self incrimination in an alleged crime has become a crime itself i.e is in Mr. Linton’s system of jurisprudence.
Here we go again! A game of whack a mole, filet zandoli, and catch marcoshat. I will give him some credit for his due diligence in bringing these claims forward. One day one will stick. The classic is this; “Do note that I am willing to provide whatever assistance may be needed in the investigation of this matter.” In case you all didn’t know, my partner graduated from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Inspector LL Head of CID. Friday kicks!
#OneLoveDominicans #OLD767
This controversy can be quickly and easily be resolved. All Mr. Vince Henderson has to do is show his letter of resignation dated before the 9th November, 2021.
It is a well-known fact that the ruling kakistocracy is lawless, dishonest, opaque and corrupt. Illegality is an integral part and parcel of this despotic regime’s governance.
To Skerrit, Vince and the other members of the unscrupulous CABAL, the truth always triumphs eventually. Pay Day is coming.
Ibo u both hate PM & or DLP people, that you don’t do your homework. LL & you think that to achieve your dreams must do such foolishness. Do u think that all persons are “coonoomoonoos” & would not look at the legislations etc. before Vince was presented? Why do you all like sensation so? Preying on the ignorance of some persons who enjoy UWP sensations, believing any foolishness that LL says. Many persons do not read or research, then become victims of persons like yourself & LL who thrive on hatred of a PM, admiring you as more knowledgeable than them. Stop those despicable things – misinformation, lies, slander, etc. Please stop that rebellion just for opposing sake. Those tactics have never worked in the past – walking out, demonstrations, etc. how will u answer to the Most High for misleading persons?
Please look internally and make some positive changes and speak the truth at all times especially those who look up to u for guidance. Time to think differently for DA’s…
@?????????????
Your admonition is perfectly correct. I fully agree with you. There is one problem though. You have confused the names. Instead of LL and Ibo, I’m fully convinced that you meant to write Skerrit and Vince. Those two reprobate need to go and bruise their knees pleading for forgiveness.
All of a sudden Lennox gave you something to chew on and now you are beside yourself. Now you are allowing ugly Lenny to think for you. The bye-election will not be held hostage nor will it be held in abeyance to check your foolishness. As I have said umpteen times before, Lennox Linton will not be the PM of Dominica, not on this earth, not on the next one.
@Ibo, you talking rubbish Dr Vince Henderson, do not have to show any letter to ugly Lenny, or in that respect anyone in particular UWP tell ugly Lenny, he should do his homework first before he starts opening his fat lips and always pointing fingers at others when he is the one that should be investigated!!
Dog Man, it CANNOT be that your brain functions like that of a rational human being. Was it deprived of oxygen during birth so it’s not functioning as it ought to? Whenever you pass doctor should preserve your brain and put it on exhibition labeled : ‘THE LEAST FUNCTIONAL HUMAN BRAIN EVER’ -PURCHASE PRICE $0.00
So basically you are say make a fake letter if he there is none?
!bo France–November 12, 2021 “This controversy can be quickly and easily be resolved. All Mr. Vince Henderson has to do is show his letter of resignation dated before the 9th November 2021”.
I cannot believe what I am reading above! Does this fellow here, actually thinks he is smart, far more for educated? Who created the controversy and who is it against?
Why should it be Mr. Vince Henderson’s responsibility to prove anything to Lennox; why did Lennox not make sure he has a case before calling for justice? Stuuuuuuupes!
But wait, who Lennox think he is? This man needs help and he needs it fast.
There are some real, brilliant Dominicans. Many of them are in prominent positions all over the globe. That’s good.
Conversely, there are too many ignorant and illiterate ones also. You,lol, fit perfectly in the latter category. Use your horse manure to fertilizer the weeds in your head.
Ibo France, the two paragraphs of yours above are badly written, not making any sense.
The first one should be a compound sentence with commas and just one period after “good”.
The second one is just as bad. Why does “conversely” punctuated with a comma end with “also”? Why not one of the two?
No wonder you have chosen that so-called leader, you are no better than him. You are either using out-of-the-dictionary vocabulary to go with your “broken record” of the “stone ages” to speak your carnal thoughts. I have said it before and I am saying it again.
@elizabethlxavier, even printed copies of the Bible and world respected journals and other print media publications have grammatical errors. What’s your point? I’m sure that you understand what the writer is conveying. You too goodie, goodie for yourself. Come on and make a reasoned argument on the topic at hand instead of this pure English nonsense. This is the age of the world wide web when even slang is acceptable.
@lol it looks like you are running scared me boy. You need help and you won’t get it fast. Evil must pay for its Sins. The rope is tightening fast, all escape boarders are being secured and reckoning day is fast approaching when all those thieves and robbers, cheaters, liars, and evil men and women who have looted the resources of the small Island of Dominica, my beloved country and that of my forefathers…will pay restitution while they are found guilty of these crimes. Dominica doesn’t belong to the labor party, or any other party. Dominica belongs to us. And if my belongings are stolen from me, then it’s my right to take it back. And we will take Dominica back from the Liar. We cannot sit still and allow slimes like “lol” to feed Dominica to the Doggss.
He is the leader of the opposition. That is his job to do exactly what he is doing right now. The fact that people like you can vote is a reason why democracy will never work.
Wow. The only problem is the person sitting on the chair of Police commissioner, no matter his name is in fact The Chief Guard of Skerrit and the DLP in their thievery and corruption. He is the so-called commissioner but in reality he is the enabler and facilitator of all the evil and grave corruption on island . No water Dominica is so corrupt like Eden before the flood of Noah, if not worse
Brilliant job honourable Linton, but it begs me to ask, or to make the observation, that in a democracy, if someone has to ask or plead to the police to act on matters of national importance. If that is the case, it is very troubling and should cause ALL citizens to question the role of the police as an institution. I think before the by- election, this matter must be clearly resolved since the DLP and its key surrogates are known to violate our laws with impunity and not a drum is beat..
Any port for a storm.
This man, ds, claims to have more degrees than two thermometers combined. The thing is though, he can’t even procure a job as a dog catcher with them. They are worth as much as the water you find in a public drain pipe.
We are not playing cricket so, we will not hold the bye-election in abeyance so the umpire can check the rules just to satisfy your ignorance. Out of the blue Lennox has waken you up again with his foolishness that does not hold water in your fake thermometers and, you are all beside yourself. If Lennox tells you to jump in the river, will you?
“No law, no Constitution” prevents Labour Party from doing what they want and as they please with Dominica, and the people allow it and are actually happy with it! I just cannot understand what we have become. This is so not the spirit of the Dominica that we grew up in. Dominicans come dotish!
Chebbey Chucky….. original hold them!
No facts. So no chebbey Chucky. The reasons you all looking for sensation.
do you think the electoral office would accept Mr. Henderson’s nomination if he did not meet the criteria? LL always looking for something to be noticed and you people follow like sheep. There is nothing illegal but the mighty LL must oppose. Your followers ain’t learning. The man doing foolish things over & over and then blaming someone. He is going 2 say the Police not doing their work& they are the PM henchman. You people swallow petty things so easily.
If he has a case, he would go to court. Now for your information, Vince is not paid by the Dominican Government and you should know that the man you adore or admire is the Chairman of the Public Audit Committee. He has access to the records and he knows the truth but to create a sensation for you and others to incite strife, he comes with a fairy tale. Write to Police Commissioner. My advice – write to the Police Service Commission. Awa time to…
This is a very good move Mr. Linton as it is your duty as opposition leader to ensure that the laws of Dominica are adhered to in all departments of state and this includes the conduct of elections. If Mr. Henderson was not properly nominated owing to his deficiencies he should not be allowed to contest. This is exactly what I am talking about when I say don’t look petty and take up every little issue, but rather take on issues on which you can actually make headway. Please don’t get carried away and trust in the people who continue to encourage you to remain true to your name as an uncaring nom debas as propelled by the DLP radio crew. People like me are the ones who really want you to succeed.
Garcon the laws were adhered to. All the questions were answered and do u know that he is the chairman of the Public Accounts Committee too. There are no deficiencies too. It is time that persons like LL and those who applaud him respect those who do their work diligently. I investigated myself and there are none. The man is illegible to be nominated. One has to have facts to make an informed decision. This man always likes to be noticed by opposing everything or looking for a needle in a haystack.
Now those of you who are led by this hateful attitude towards the PM and Labour party need to stop this. We are all Dominicans. I may not support DLP but the truth is truth and right is right. Why try to make people believe that the Electoral Division not doing their work? This must stop. Oppose when you have real facts. What marjee that? Writing to Police Commissioner to investigate nomination? Then I know his next answer – The police are PM cronies. Just to instigate more hatred
This guy just does not understand.The burden of proof is not on the defendant,it is on the prosecution.Vince does not have to produce anything.Carbon know that.This guy is so idiotic he is making a report to the police and he is telling the police how to investigate the matter.Vince has no contract with Government even if he did,he had within 7 days to resign before nomination.The same way Linton know about Sec (32)(1)(f) on page 39 of the constitution,Dr Henderson know.It is the same BS they did with Skerrit and the dual citizenship,and then turn around LYING about Skerrit said,NO LAW NO CONSTITUTION.Same BS just a different day.Linton should be charged with public mischief.
Lie Clown, your mind is like a neglected garden completely overrun with weeds. There is not even one flowering plant in your garden.
@Lin clown, Lennox’s mischiefs are against no one but himself and those who follow him. You and I know that the majority of Dominicans cannot be fazed by what Lennox wants to do and say–for it all goes up in smoke.
Just read the comments of his supporters above–% calls it a “brilliant” move. Hahahahaha! The others are repeating things that were said, suggested, or demanded by Lennox from the dark ages ago, all of which were the same as dead branches with no ability of production.
So is that one above. Who does Lennox think he is that the Police of Dominica will pay any attention to his empty demands.
And why won’t he learn from his past experience, to stop making a fool of himself before the Leaders and Authorities of the whole Region, not just fellow Dominicans?
Speak on what you know please. As for Skerro and his dual nationality that’s for another show..God knows it all and someday somehow somewhere somebody will come out with the truth. Who knows? Maybe himself to free his conscience.
Speak on what you know. As for Skerro dual nationality that’s for another show. God knows it all and he knows it too. Who knows? Maybe someday somehow someway somebody will bring out the truth. Maybe himself, to free how conscience but then again how much of that does he have. Dominica is not a real place. Hope all Dominicans do not feel the wrath of wrongdoings of a few…leave that right there
Lin Clown
your statement did not make any sense as you never said Vince had or can prove he had left his job in government .and you should be ashamed to mention the Skeritt case
@Lin clown, you must be a bush lawyer. If you see your neighbor sexually molesting a young child and you make a complain you are saying that the burden of proof is on you to take that child to have her examined as proof of the molestation because the burden of proof is on you? What utter rubbish. It’s bush lawyers like you who think they know too damn much who line up behind corruption and throw your support. Which school of law did you attend? Must be like the one which bestowed the bogus doctorate on the dude in charge.
Jonathan, there is no comparison between what you have said above and what Lin Clown is saying. He doesn’t have to do anything with the child, he saw what happened with his own eyes–the rest is up to the police–he will simply be the main witness.
Your Lennox, on the other hand, is the complainant but he does not have anything to prove his complaint, how do you expect the person he complained against to do that work for him. What kind of madness is this?
I knew Linton had something up his sleeve
Ugly Lenny, is a puppet he has nothing up his sleeve but rubbish as usual fake news!!!!!!
Man bites Dog, I find that trigerin you eh? why such an emotional response?
The law will decide – although I doubt uncle will allow the Skerrit police force to prosecute one of his own.
He will be coming to you when raising funds to pay for another libel suit. You UWP supporters alway falling for Lennox BS. You must have very deep pockets to always bailing out this guy but you are crying how bad things are in DA.
