Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has taken a swipe at his critics who he says want to kick him out of Roseau.
Speaking at a town hall style meeting in Penville last week the prime minister said he will remain focused on his job. “I am focused on what on what I am doing, I am committed to what i am doing,” he said to loud applause from his supporters.
The prime minister said some of his detractors have been trying to chase him out of the nation’s capital but their efforts have been in vain. “They try to chase me out of Roseau and some say they have succeeded,” he stated. “But they have not succeeded in kicking me out of Roseau. Nobody is going to kick me out of Roseau.”
He described himself as “Roseau person.”
“I am a Roseau person just like all those who are living Roseau,” Skerrit said. “Roseau is part of Dominica and I can go anywhere in Dominica at any time.”
He urged his supporters to continue praying for him.
“So do not let your hearts be troubled,” the prime minister said. “I appreciate your prayers…continue to pray for me but do not worry yourself about what you hear. Nobody can touch me, nobody can kick me out of Roseau or Dominica.”
Leadership, partnership, partisanship, labar-ship, palace- ship, state man ship, defending ship, roseau ship to vielle case ship, villas ship, sinking ship, floating ship, no money ship, laughing ship, IPO Ship, Toni ship, and China ship, venuezualean ship, housing revolution ship, no bananas ship, bobol ship and trouble ship, mercy shipppppppppp – where Dominica going and on which shipppppppppp?
15 years ago a man named skero came on the political scene on the invitation of Rosie Douglas. That Rosie had the poor at heart, a miossion to development Domiica, clean hands and in his heart to make a difference for the developmentn of people in need. That Rosie then never used poor people and neither did he se the riches of the state and of the poor to enrich himslef himself. Rosie Douglas died a humble and clean man. Todays Rosie or Skerro is before the courts and has lost all credability to be a leader and champion of poor, so READER it seems that you are not living in the same Domioica that we do. The country is poor and focus on true meaningful Dominica has never taken place but with the operation of a red clinic where poor Domiicans were subjected to a low of walking up the steps of the Financial Centre to beg for money, food etc. That system and leadership has reduced Dominicans to beggars and a damn insult to our credabilty.. So please open your eyes and get to know really what development is.
God bless and save Dominica.
skerro tell the people of penville and dominica alike of job creations, market for exports, legal aspects of inland revenue, the country’s state on deficits, small business, foreign payback (for sure the chineese are not working for nothing back), your countless travel for purposes unknown, and stop boasting of roads that you know being built by chineese is short term. and stop being too macho and disrespectful.
I onced admired you as all the other DLP leaders but you are now certainly clogging my brain with
Your brain is clogged for real you doh even know the man is a freedomite? man you should change ur blog name youare nowhere close to ur adopted name sake.He would definitly seen the imposter in Medard.
“…do not worry yourself about what you hear. Nobody can touch me, nobody can kick me out of Roseau or Dominica.”
– Roosevelt Skerrit
No law no contitution can keep him out of Roseau lol He is now a Roseau feller like gent P/mouth would say ah Roseau fella.
Unfortunately he is not.
Dominica is no longer a priority for this our so called PM. He thinks he runs the country good when he is running it down the drain. Wake up Dominicans……then again bad choices made are currently affecting the Country and no one can stop him so he say.
It doesn’t surprise me that the prime minister chose Penville to make this nonsensical statement; that’s the only village in the constituency for some reason still support him. To talk about Roseau people trying to chase him is proof that the man has not grown one bit.
He should have remebered how he grew up in an environment that was anti E.O Leblanc. In the days of EO, while he would win handsomely in Penville and Thibaud, he never did well in his own village. His greatest enemies in Viellecase came from people Skeritte hold dear to his heart. EO was always popular in Roseau. So you know better than that Mr. PM. In case you were to young to know,he needs to ask people who was EO’s biggest enemy in his own village and and he will know who chased EO from Roseau.
Win, Lose or Draw, the IPO is ready and waiting for you.
Even if that was not all that was said these kind of ignorant talk have no business in Dominica politics. It is flaming old crap about town and country. Very divisive.
Almost 15 years ago, an unknown young man named Roosevelt Serritt stepped up to the challenge and presented himself as a candidate for the January 2000 elections. I recall listening to him on the political platform and, in spite of his age, he was charismatic, intelligent and full of energy. Most of all, he was passionate about the plight of the poor of our country and he truly wanted to do his part to improve things here. Since then, he has worked tirelessly to do just that. That’s just one of the reasons why I love our prime minister and will continue to work together with him to develop our country. I sincerely hope all these issues are laid to rest so that he can continue to do what he loves best – doing all he can to bring development to our Dominica.
Not let your heart be troubled…The PM is strong and he is securely protected.
The uwp knows that they are nothing and they only way they can amount to something is to attack the PM at every junction and try to drag him down.
Can you imagine hector jean as prime minister????…workersssssss
I feelsorry 4 idiots like vous. So fickle! It’s unbelieverable in 2013 the world has ignoramus’s like thou. Even the BreastMinister is more logicl thanthou at least themoney is what’s keeping him there.What makes you give support?
giving people hands out will never get them out of poverty.
You have to equip people to become INDEPENDENT. not keep\
them depending on you so you can get their vote.
hahahaaahhhaaaahhhhaaaa That’s too funny!!! Bless you!!!
where u live? on Pluto?
You are not alone. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Many, even those who reside afar are broadminded enough to observe and conclude what he has done for Dominica that no other PM was able to achieve. Dominica is far better today than previously. He should be appreciated for this. He deserves all the encouragement. My parents would make the identical statements. May god bless him.
I wonder if these were the only words the PM said in Penville you all are not easy but time wiil tell.
“I am a Roseau person just like all those who are living Roseau,” Skerrit said. “Roseau is part of Dominica and I can go anywhere in Dominica at any time.” Any where in dominica skerro? so my property is yours? well come trespass and we shall see if u can go anywhere in dominica
hahaha look story…..
Surely Anonymous(can I mention your name?)you are misinterpreting what Skerrit is saying, just like all of us, he will be allowed to go and walk anywhere in Roseau without fear or intimidation
Remember in our days gone by when someone say the guy is STUPID, it was a compliment indicating he makes people laugh. Like the Holy Bible there are a lot on misinterpretations. You will have the man in your home pronto and not for your property I know
IT ‘s time to do something!
DOMINICANS,are u sleeping?
am ready to build with u a constructive Dominica !
rise up and talk to me!we must protest , our beautiful country must not go straight to the wall !
honesty pays!!!!!!
Look, even spinning tom (peeping) feel so shame about his leader he cannot comment.
Mr. Prime Minister, you are a man in public office; you should expect people to talk and maybe even villify you. As a leader you cannot expect every citizen to be in favour of you and your policies so people are going to say what they want. I just find that a bit more maturity and professionalism should be exhibited on your part. You do not have to answer to everything. Choose you battles and make sure when you’re doing so it is for the best of the nation and my fellow Dominicans. Not too long ago I was talking to a fellow Caribbean brother and he was questioning some of the things that he’s heard from you in speeches etc. People are checking what’s going on in Dominica, so please sir display some professionalism in word and deed.
I support you. Poor speech. Childish.Immature.
Is nothing like a response from a leader.
Very poor.
MR “PM” these things goes with te territory, thats a forgone conclution, when you are in the kitchen and there is heat of course you have the heat. If you are true public servant then its expected you can never please evey body. MR”PM” have you consider what amount of power position you`re in? the difference is how and what you do to manage the country business and history will judge you by that. Sir that`s my advise to you, good luck going forward. God speed always.
My understanding of what he has has said is ‘kick him out as prime minister’; unless I have read it totally wrong!
skerro for life!!!!! our SWEET PM…..
Poor you Skerro,Penville people will pray for you alright, to ask god to forgive you for you have sinned ..
I dont think there are enough prayers to help that one. Only he can help himself by coming clean to the world and from that point walking the fine line.
tru …,i wonder which one of them will face judgement day 4 him his punishment after this life is far more worst one day at a time he will walk roseau i might go b4 him the ants will bring news 4 me but im securing my soul 4 my eternity lol poor my country
Skerrit is a not a leader. He is a politician who accidentally became the PM. No law or constitution cannot stop I & I. Is that leadership?????There should not be any more surprises.
Don’t keep on making stupid speeches.Tell the Dominican people the truth! After that the Dominican people will decide whether they will chase you out of Roseau and Dominica or not. You are talking and acting like a bloddy dictator man! You are walking on thin ice.
Obama going up for President of the united states is going to represent the people of the united states in Washington,Skerit as PM of Dominica is representing us in Roseau,thats where the laws and decisions takes place so if you all dont want him as PM it simply means you dont want him in Roseau to take and make decision for the country,so you all would rather he be only the PR of penville that is how i understand the statment.
Partner I have just ONE word to describe that rant – Aughter Rubbish
Idiot learn to spell! The word is “utter”
PM, they way you continuously insult and disrespect your flock, it seems that you will be running away from Roseau by your own accord. You are most welcome in Roseau sir, and more so any part of Dominica; you are especially welcome in the walls of the IPO office; we want you in Roseau, to answer the questions that you are running away from. So when you decide to run from Roseau, from the IPO, you wont have any excuse that people running you from Roseau. You are a strong leader. You will be ok comrad.
Sir you are going about this the wrong way and you are just working on the emotions of your people. You are from VC and should be proud of that, being the Prime Minister doesn’t make you a Roseau Person, are you entertaining the idea that Prime Ministership is too good for a person from a rural community? This is however besides the point, you have been accused of wrong doing. As the leader of the country you live a public life and as such you come under public scrutiny. You know well that there is always going to be opposition from both within and without and when there are alleged breaches especially by people we trust with our highest offices, these men and women must be made to answer. You need to grow up some and be more mature and rational in your approach. As you rightly said in July 19th, the IPO’s decision to carry out an inquiry into the legitimate ownership of Blair Court and the Villas is an opportunity to vindicate you. My friend you have to be more consistent and seek to have your actions and words compliment each other because we are listening when you speak. No one is trying to distract you or cause you to lose focus, once one engages in putting his or her interests above the country’s interest, then he or she loses focus. When a leader places a greater premium on his/her election or reelection legacy than serving his/her country’s interest, this individual has surely lost his/her focus. In this business it must be country before self and party and that is where the focus should remain. So please make yourself available to the investigation and let’s prove the critics wrong and continue with the business of building this country. If you are wrong, no matter how much we love you…. you have to answer and if you are vindicated, all the better. We want you to do what God has placed you here to do.
Well said
Mordiay…alas…I want to add my piece…but I read all 95% of the 83 comments so far are all against the dude. WAW, this man’s approval rating has sure gone down. Popularity is in the gutter now and to try to save his drowning political career, he is grasping at straws. What a big big big joke eh.
I am not even sure if DNO will approve my comments, so I not wasting my time to type more.
I doh know what MOU do them.
I find this to be Juvenile, not so much the speech but it making the rounds. Well what’s the purpose of the PM telling Penville People that he is a Roseau boy when they know him as neighbors. Personally, If I were from Penville I would take offense, or Veille Case for that matter. He could have said something to the effect that he is in Roseau to do a job and he will be there until the job is finished, in addition, my home is in Veille Case.
Dominica Politics is rather childish, and thrives on ignorance. The populace applaud any rubbish without even understanding what they are hearing. I feel pity for these people and will pray fro God to help them all.
He wants to live in the state house after lol!
Roseau is it lol!
WHat are you talking about garcon? You make yourself to be some kind of god. Time for Dominicans with MBAS, Phds and such to come back home to Dominica and bring their expertise. Get rid of these incompetent, corrupt, self-serving, ego-tistic, half-a politicians who think they are living idols. Man get a hold of yourself. Leadership is the ability to motivate others to better themselves, to take pride in their country. NOT FOSter divisiveness
LOL! lets talk and meet , dont make me a shame to be A Dominican!
LOLLLL!!! Skerro bad man! “Nobody can touch me” hahahah
– words of a prime minister, really? smh
Not only shame but Distasteful and Disgraceful,
“…do not worry yourself about what you hear. Nobody can touch me, nobody can kick me out of Roseau or Dominica.”
– Roosevelt Skerrit
“The majority can never replace the man”
– Adolf Hitler
“No retreat, No surrender”
– Joseph Stalin
“Naturally, I refuse to be pressured by anyone,”
– Hosni Mubarak
“Those who do not love me do not deserve to live.”
– Muammar al-Gaddafi
“I am a President held prisoner, that I haven’t resigned and I will not resign.”
– “Hugo Chavez
Setting aside the others, are you following the news pertaining to Egypt? Or have you heard about what is occurring in Egypt? Note the current situation in that country. Mubarak was ousted and now what. The worst is yet to come for Egypt. This is a typical example. In some cases, you know what you have but you do not know what you will get. Be careful Dominicans, you who cannot see the future and what is in store! This is an advice and warning. There may be some premonition in it as well. Take note!
Dead right on the money. Their is not much difference between him and those you quoted.
You compare the DA PM to those dictatorships, atheists and wicked people who also starved their people and sent them to the gas chamber? What type of mind do you have? Shame on you! You do not know the difference between living a free life and an oppressed one. It maybe time for you to live an oppressed one to get a taste of it.
Let me further inform you, the PM does not deserve the type of criticism that some of you dish out to him, you who do nothing for your country but only criticize. Do you know what my parents would say about you? You are too ungrateful, as you have projected.
Maybe someday you will reap what you sow. God is taking note. You will, one day weep and wail and regret your words. Wait and see. What goes around comes around.
It’s ironical that the Dear Leader would go to Penville, the heart of the countryside to tell his coterie of supporters that he is a “Roseau person” In effect he is saying he is not a country bookie. When I was growing up, country people hated it when people came back from Roseau playing “comsidee” and Roseau “persons” did not like the country bookies. Pray tell, what’s the difference between a “Roseau person” and a oountry person? What’s next? Are we going to revisit Phyllis Shand Allfrey’s “Rose-O” satire?
Did anyone notice? Ha Ha. His supports cannot even defend him on DNO for such a speech. woooyyyy. I declare the elections mele 1, 2, 3… GO! Lets bring on the laughs! I am sure to enjoy this election season. next year i going up for calypso wii. instead of crown me crown me crown me i going to sing.. buy me buy me buy me! Woyy the elections mele has just begun! I DECLARE IT OPENED! Who with me?! Buy me buy me buy me! *music* lol
Skerro, if they wanna get rid of you, call me!!! lemme get em!!
That is not a nice thing to say; you are threaten:
Making threats is always un-called-for!
What you have done here will simply cause more damage to the mans’ reputation, and I am sure he does not need any hoodlums, or criminals supporting him.
“Call me lemme get them.”
(Call me let me get them) means you are prepared to kill people, that’s what your comment denotes, that is a threat that can land you in jail!
We have enough unsolved crimes including murder in Dominica, and here you a openly making threats; joke, or no joke, that is a very foolish thing you have done, and perhaps someone should submit your comment to the police so that they can keep an eye on you!

I am a big critic of Skerrit and his cronies, but it is difficult for me to even believe that Skerrit said that. To me I want to give him the benefit of a doubt. SMH
MR PM.I Am DOMINICAN ARE YOU????????????
Of course. Please read Sec 31 and 33 of the Constitution and then read Sec 32
I meant unstatesmanship behavior
Classic, obvious, poor attempt at public relations. Now you want people to pray for you? Even after you disrespected the the very citizens who voted you in the first time by saying “Dominicans are TOO free…Go to Hell…”. Wake up, buddy we are praying for you and your legal entourage to step down.
Will be able to step up i’am pretty sure if ever you was in his shoes there would’nt even do one step of what he is doing or what he has done you all are the descendants of devils want to turn dominica like enemy of dominiica because he is not sharing the money with you all and turn his back on dominica he is not warlike people he knows the value of love every one and not some stop the jealousy and drain it out in your blood respect he was send by the the creator so neither you or any else can’t touch this man because the angels of God is circling around him any time a man is loved by many god is with him and the almighty hands is upon him so the enemies of God have to vanish so good and faithful servant PM fear no evil for thou art with you remember the only one to fear is the almighty he has power over those people to keep them quiet they are not the chosen one
oh god….. what happen to that PM na he forcing me to drink weeee
You drinking wee now? Maybe that’s ok for poules but I would not recommend that for human beings.
yes pm i feel u. they ran after EO LEBLANC and put him to sit in v/case while they turn the country upside down but you shall not be moved by critics or by grudge when the ppl of d/ca ready they will remove u through election and trust me i don’t think that will be no time soon.hold on strong pm hold on strong
You need a lesson in history clearly. Skerrit wines and dines with the very ones who sent EO packing so nobody is planning to send him anywhere. However he depends on idiots like you to get you britches in a knot and feast on every silly word he speaks.
Skerro got politically married to those that send EO leblanc back to vieicase. Skerro is a big, big, big friend of those who sent EO back to vielle-case. In fact vieille case from childhood Skerro was influenced by some that rejoiced when EO was sent to sit in vieille case. So please don’t make it a where you from thing as mr. Skerrite is trying to make penvillians believe because in the last 15 years we have had PM’s from all over DA and not one of them was from Roseau. Eddo-Marigot, Rosie-Possie, Peiro-South city, now Skerro-vielle case. No nonsense talk!
It takes one idiot to know another.
who beat you, and for who for you crying you just start to hold on strong until you burst your hands on the rope. idiot.
You are not speaking the truth, and if the truth is not in you, that means you are a liar!
Nobody, ran after Oliver Leblanc, or chase him out of office.
Leblanc took it upon himself and retire from public office, while he was in office around 1958, or there about Leblanc made comments such as this: ” I may not be around;” we read that in the Dominica Chronicle, and also in the Barbados Advocate, those words were the beginning of the end of his political career, give credit to Leblanc because he knew when he should have bowed out gracefully.
He was not rejected by the people!
Let the story be tolled as he occurred, and do not distort history, Leblanc is still alive, living off the Taxpayers of Dominica, people get older, and decides to relinquish power, and simply phase out of public life!

I seldom comment on DNO but I have been waiting for someone to point out the problem with the way this article is written. I mean is that all the PM said at the meeting that was of relevance or was this part of his speech specifically chosen and skewed (for it could have been written another way, I argue) to solicit the type of discussion that is going on right now? I am not a one-party supporter and I always welcome when DNO posts all sides of the issues as it pertains to political parties in DA but I am disturbed by the essence of this article. In my opinion there should be more substance and a balanced representation of what took place. Maybe I missed a previous posting about the townhouse style meeting?
You are right. For a while, I thought this couldn’t be what the PM said or the most important thing he said. It is just too idiotic both the way it is written and worse if he actually said this….”no one will run me from Roseau!!” What nonsense.
The PM is losing it. He must be a victim of the madness bug blowing in the wind or a casualty of too much babalen light all over the place. Hold on PM. We wait on the Court of Appeal or the IPO or 2014 whichever comes first.
Respectfully
Roseau Valley
Mr.prime minister never let your heart be trouble when God is for you who care who’s against you.God has ordained for men various kind of jobs its the will of God you are the prime minister am praying for you always keep God first in everything you do when ever you decided to retire you be the president of this beautiful country .
what you smoking in Chicago? Is the cold coming from the lake affecting ur small brain saqwat sort.
Yes, cold does shrink things… and not only the mal papaye.
In the name of Jesus i declare war against any evil forces which continue to allow Skerrit to remain PM in Dominica Amen.
Why put God in this nonsense? I agree God is with Him just as he is with all of his creation. But the question is, are his ways and dealings pleasing to God? When a person is willfully doing wrong every month, without repentance, praying for him not to get caught is not promised. What is promised is,”Know your sins will find you out.”
I wonder what he ask for prayer for? For him not to get caught? Sorry,Francis Chicago, you drinking your soup in Chicago without a problem but we in DA have had enough. We have cried enough and the cry of the people has been heard and finally I smell help on the way. Wee-pe-peep! Hurray!
If he is so great and doing good things for Dominica; Why are you in Chicago?.
Pack up and go back home. Are you waiting for a “free” ticket to come down and vote and run back up?.
Which God? Brother, there are many gods.
Jehovah God? I don’t think so.
No right thinking Dominican is going to do anything to Skeritt. He would hope that somebody put him out of his misery-not too fast.
IPO has the rope outside the board room.
After the session, he will run and hang himself like Barabas.
Amen:They think they are hurting the PM no is the country they are hurting because of jealousy Dominican like free bees but the PM is Smarter than them, one thing the truth riding their gossip about the PM #1 he did not thief the country monies #2 he din’t squandered the monies and #3 he is doing dm good compare to those that ever been sitting on this chair they were waste except the two last ones may their souls rest in peace.He didn’t come to steal, kill and hurt Dominicans he came as a humble an respectable man
alot of us hide under the name of God but there is nothing Godly about us or our behavior …..the devil knws the bible too but does not live by it
Don’t try that Skerrit. LeBlanc and Edison James made the same accusation as a lame excuse for their own failures and inability to take pressure. I ain’t buying that talk from you. Stand like a man and deal honestly with the issues
boss what kind of maypwi that nuh?reverse psychology mr using there,man.He so accustom of playing on people’s emotions he just try that one to garner sympathy and support from his disenfranchised fans..doh worry tricks in trade.so long that town and country thing over!nice try skerro..we waiting to see your next move to hold on to power!
Mr. Prime Minister: You amuse me, yet you sadden me. I have always thought of you as an intelligent young man, even if flawed. But your monumentally silly comment about people wanting to run you out of Roseau has shaken my belief in your intelligence. You can do better than that.
And by the way, attempts to change the subject by appealing to your supporters for sympathy will not make the charges of corruption go away. Only an appearance before the IPO commission can accomplish this, even if your lawyers vow to keep you away from the commission.
My advice: grow up, Mr. Prime Minister. The couintry expects more from you and you risk being left behind if you do not grow up.
That can of desperation and gutter politicking belongs to the rum shop Mr Skerrit…Do you take hard drinks Sir? As a PM your manner of speech should be more refined. The IPO will cause you to run all around roseau in time to come…
Go focus on the work of the country you have failed and impoverished, and stop the disrespectful “KAR BAR WAY” kind of nonsensical
talk..
what stupid talk that nah , them ting reigning?In 2013 people still using them lines.99% of people living in town from country . Boss man stop your donkey talk and address the issues.
You running and you running and you running away but you can not run away from yourself SKERRO ROSIE DIE PIERRO DIE SO STAND UP AND TAKE LIKE A MAN
may God richely Bless u my P M,WE DONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THEM GOOD FOR NOTHING? BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST JEALOUS OF U ? AND NOT ALALL THEY ARE BETTER. ALL THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR IS POSSITION AND POWER? BUT LITTLE DO THEY KNOW? THAT God is the one who and there bigger surise place u there , to bring our dominica to the next level it is today, ,and there bigger suprise will soon come, cause they think they will throw u all with all there row row , they making, but u have to kick them away for good again, GOD BLESS U MY PRINE MINISTER? ONE LOVE ?
In the name of Jesus i declare war against all evil forces promoting the pm foolishness Amen
Fear No More !!!! My brothers and sisters.
It is Skerritt and the rest of the Cabal who are scared to death, fearful of being questioned by the courts, the IPO, the opposition, the patriots all.
They are losing the people’s trust day by day. On one hand PM claims to be willing to face the IPO, then he and his perpetual defence SC make a 360 degree turn. Will do anything to prevent the IPO from questioning him about his declarations.
Dominicans should ask,”How comes is only PM Skerritt the IPO has issues with and want further clarifications/evidence/information about what he disclosed to the IPO?”
PM go to the IPO and save yourself any more embarrassment and suspicion. The IPO cannot send you to jail or fine you,nuh? But is the questioning the Cabal fraid. They fraid PM incriminate himself,i.e found not to be speaking the truth.
dominicans all, SC nor PM must be allowed to dismantle the IPO given its powers, mandated by the Constitution to go on with investigating the PM. The IPO, Electoral Commission, Judicial/Courts System, Police are all institutions under heavy manners. Our Constitution are being torn to treads right in our eyes.
Is so dictatorship start in Haiti. Innocent Haitians suffered under dictators Papa and Baby Doc for decades. The rich, Elite class was getting richer and richer, while the majority lived miserably. Millions were stolen from the Haitian people.
The few who had power, economic and/or political did what they wanted, disregarded the Law, set up ‘Tonton Macoutes’ to put people in line, shut them up. Intimidate. Create fear. Defending, protecting top officials and their ilk, aiding and abetting corruption and other illegal acts by all means possible.
Experimenting with dictatorship rule? Think again or we will all REGRET sooner not later.
The body language of a leader can win or lose elections for their party. In fact, it usually does.Political leaders know this. . Your body language and the way you say things are far more eloquent and far more important than what you say.
So whsn PM speaks the entire uwp cries like babies such as the do on DNO.
Who can forget the lashing out the uwp and lennox got in 2005 and the crowd went wild….expext moe
paranoia abundant
I find that PM like to lash out at people. I live in north America and so much is being said about the president or prime ministers of other country. You don’t hear them lashing out at people like that. I find Dominica prime Minister is alway in the new lashing out at people. My goodness what is going on.
Do you read the blogs featuring the local poitics of “other countries”? E.g Do you read the never ending partisan political blogs from St.Lucia one of our closest neighbours? I suppose you do not have time for that type of activity. Are you aware also that the PM is under a relentless, savage and wicked conspiracy to get him out of office by any means necessary? Are you aware that compared to that well orchestrated 24-7 attack spnning more than five years now, the Pm’s response is few and far in between tot he extent that when he does not respond his critics say he is guilty as charged? Are you aware of that? Are you aware that the Pm has rights like every other Dominican irrespective of who brings chrages against him? And that he is entitled to defend himself with every legal means available to him, including chastising those who seek to tear him down? Isn’t that an expression of our democracy. Every one is free to criticize and the one to whom the criticism is directed is also free to respond. Isn’t it so? Pm go right ahead and defend yourself by any and every legal means available to you.
Go read the PM’s oath of office then take a conscience cleansing.
In Penville alone he have that strength. Before a word comes from his mouth all they doing is clapping; as for when he shows his dimples! is like they see Jesus Christ. As far as Penville People are concerned they got their ham and turkey for Christmas and are awaiting the petty handouts.
@ For love of country Massa he like to play massa, but we will be good for him.
thats the way the cabalist want to rule dominica you dont have barons or shillingfords for your surname so u cant be in government those days are over. come ye foward sons and daughters all and sundry. farmers, poor, rich,once you have the will power u can be at the helm MASER DAYS DONE!
vrey good Skerro1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So a man has to take all sorts of ridicule and not hitback occssionally. the man never said he is a saint, he also has the killer instinct of the political animal.The man is highly popular,the opposition must pray that an early election is not called because they would be devastated.
Stupes
U full of urself
I am 39 years old. U and I are in de same age group.
Boss man if u ever think that being a public person u should be shielded from criticism it only proves how shallow and immature u are.
U got milk?
Be honest. Nobody trying to kick u out of Roseau.
U hardly here. U might as best stay away.
On de other hand citizens of this country want to KICK U OUT OF DE PM SEAT. Say dat instead. U hardly in Dominica far less for Roseau.
Who are u?
De Queen gets criticism. De Pope gets criticism. Farmers get criticized by U. EVERYBODY gets criticised from time to time.
De joke is now on u. U just opened up urself to criticism. U so smart eh.

Who are the people from Roseau trying to intimidate PM there nuh? Those paros??
hahahahahahah thats a good one
Thats so backward, Roseau country thing still alive nuh everybody in roseau have parents who were not born in Roseau. SMH
Sign of a mad man!Pure nonsense.
If you are so confident of your position why are you still in campaign mode?
I am very disappointed to hear that kind of statement from a Prime Minister. Please Mr. PM, do not attempt to put such through of “town” vs “country” in the mind of the people. As we say in Bim; “from town to country all ah we are one.”
Ladies and gentlemen, let’s remind Mr. PM, we are one people, one nation, one Dominica.
Is first time nah, lucky he did not say “to Hell with them”
Don’t u think that’s what he is saying? Read over
Completely wreckless. Skerrit this is old propaganda. Who wants to touch you? or kick you out of Roseau? You mean if someone has a difference of opinion from you, you automatically turn that into a ..” they hate me in Roseau, they want to touch me, they can’t kick me out of Roseau..” ? Mr PM we are all Dominicans. Stop this childish display. You know fully well what the issues are deal with them and stop inciting discord amongst the people. When you make such a statement what do you expect the results to be? Playing on the heartstrings of ignorant, hot bloodied fools who will hurt others based on your ramblings when no one even threatened you? That is the height of irresponsibility.
How can a PM be so self indulgent and wreckless to even believe these things and repeat them?
He needs a kick in the butt down a flight of stairs/ Computer center lol!. If only Monte Diablotin had escalieres like escalier tete chien
He should be kicked out like his party of Origin DFP was in 1995 and like Eddo et Al in 2000
But his kick in his butt should send him to VC without touching the pitch/asphalt.
Here we go again with this guy. God is great, God is good. I suppose God hates sin Mr. Skerrit but he loves sinners….How about pray for Dominica? That is what I have been doing Sir.
Bondieu w’oy. Let me read that again. I didn’t get that article at all, DNO.
Oh crap!! Election coming soon.The crap talk start.
That making sense na? stuuupes
No Skerrit didn’t say that. Stop lying on the PM. Not in 2013 with playing this classism US against THEM! Divide and rule. Who exactly is trying to run him from Roseau?
I sensed that Skeritt is bitter that he is not from Roseau. This is old talk “I from the town and you from de country,” it is all small minded talk that a guy who is the P.M should not enbroiled himslef into.
“Who cares” where you are from once you were born in Da and have not taken up any other country’ citizenship?
He also brought up a physical aspect in that speech which can insight your blindminded followers to think that someone is going to “touch you!!”
My P. M it is not the physical touch they are talking about, it is the political force which is being gathered to remove you from office because of the poor job that you have been doing.
I am so ashamed of the polarization that you have caused in my land. Please don’t insight more violence. Is it becuase elections are coming you all of a sudden talking about that??
next he will say his “race ” is not worthy to be pm…crap!! evo morales is the president of Bolivia .!
stupes………..;yawn! dont u hv anything better to ask the ppl to pray for mr pm?
The man has lost it!!!! Crass politics!
Politricks
Skerritt who are those people trying to run u out of Roseau? Boy you have guts wii! If there are people being chased out of Roseau they are Edison James, Lennox Linton and Norris Prevost. Don’t you listen the animal show and read DNO? I must say this this disgraceful attempt to divide the people will not work, sorry.
All those guys are from the red dirt village who make themselves in Roseau then hit the burbs but playing Marigotian on week ends lol
Will somebody tickle me under my feet!
I don’t know which God you think sent him because you cannot be talking about the God of Brother Abraham.
It cannot be the God of Brother Moses, who over 2000 years ago stood before Pharaoh and demanded, Let my people go.
It cannot be the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who rioted in the Temple and chased the vendors to the street.
I suggest you look to the book of Revelations to discover who your great leader is asking you to pray to.
It makes no sense. Nobody is chasing him away from Roseau. On the contrary, people rather he stay so they can keep an eye on him. Is not Roseau he is running away from but the country on all these unexplained trips but, of course……that is none of our damned business.
Malgrasa! you dohthink Jamie chasing him?
smdh P.M take care
But wait nuh,,, Garçon you have heart wi,,,
Somebody told me to go take a trip up in that place where you built dat big house, so Marn did, to my amazement was not d Huge ting you build dere but the condition(s) of them little houses across d street,,,
Garçon you not easy, ??? Now!!!
Take you blows yeah and leave god ,,,
When you driving in dat big 745Li you does tink about does same people you asking to pray for you???
Garçon why allyou always coming and finding God,,,
stop it already nuh man and make amends while seeking Redemptio,,,
In my humble opinion, this should not even be an article in the public space. Who are “those” people who want to get him out of Roseau? I am getting fed up with the PM and all these silly statements. Everyone knows that any citizen of the country can roam any community at any time without hindrance. What is needed, on the part of the PM,is for him to come clean with the citizens and have Mr. Astaphan stop making a fool of him. The PM said in July of 2012 that he was happy the IPO would investigate the alleged abuse of his position as Chairman of Cabinet. Why, then, is Mr. Astaphan now trying to have the investigation to be carried out by the Integrity Commission squashed? The PM not a man then? I onced admired you as all the other DLP leaders but you are now certainly clogging my brain with doubts. Do what is best for the country and have SC shut up!!!
The title of the article should say “PM embarrasses himself’ because that is what he did. Which swipe at his critics, this is a pathetic attempt at trying to make people feel sorry for him.
PLEASE!!!!!!
STUPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Roseau person
whining about being a rosesu person
Laughable. Not worthy of a comment. Whoosh
Why would anyone even want to be called a “Roseau person” is beyond me.
Does being a “Roseau person” equate to being better than other Dominicans?
What’s wrong with being called “Dominican”?
Born: 8 June 1972 Roseau, Dominica. Ruffle your feathers Mr. PM., and dodge the trivial name calling.
That would be a great comment if there was even an iota of truth to it. Clearly you don’t know the PM showboating and just making up a story. Chile nobody tell the man that, in the absence of substance nonesense is king
Will always Advocate that Dominica will always Be a Back Bench island why?
Simple they don’t adhere to Standards.
Dominicans are Generally way too Dull in thinking. This Prime Minister has too much Petty Child like Chatter he has not grown to be a Matured Adult He Lacks Class Period!
If this Prime Minister was above board why would He keep Hiding away from Concerns Raised.
Take a Page out of other Islands and Countries Where they hold their Leaders accountable in all Areas…..STANDARDS..
But again it’s Dominica so folks should not Worry They just simple don’t get it!
The PM is quite intelligent in his tactics. Using this Roseau chant, he gets sympathy from his Penville supporters who can relate to the victimisation of country people in town (though a thing of the past). Only the gullible will be moved by the PM’s ranting and raving.
Seriously? Really? IS Skerrit playing the class card here? How ridiculous! especially considering he is now richer than ALL of the middle class and some of the wealthy class. Most hypocritical for him to go down that road.
Kick him out of Roseau indeed. Not office but Roseau. stewps. Big FAT yawn, Skerrit. YAWN!!!!!
There is the PM attempting to turn persons against those who question his actions YET AGAIN!!!!!
TALK ABOUT DECISIVE!!!!!!!!!
Skerro u deserved to be kicked out of Roseau, u come telling us UWP corrupt and we prayed with you to get out the corrupt uwp, now u in Govt u worse than UWP and expect us to just take that!. Dominica cannot develop under your reign u making the Dominican people poorer.
Nobody can touch my PM lol
Is the PM for real. This is really childish talk
I suspect he is trying to play on the emotions of the Penville people and the Ville Case constituency in general because of what was perceived to have happen to the late Hon. Oliver Edward Leblanc in the time of Patrick John.
Mr PM that will not work, as the people now are smarter and information is readily available to everyone at the touch of a mouse and their finger tips.
Thanks God for the Information Revolution and advent of Information and Communication Technologies.
The fact is that you are being judged by your own actions and maybe it’s time that you tell the Ville Case constituency the truth about the allegations you are accused of
Time is the revealer of hidden things.
Is this man losing it. He is a Roseau person ????? What childish crap I am read here today nah. Because people demand honesty they want to kick you out of Roseau and Dominica. Noone wants to kick you anywhere they just want you to have some integrity. Mr. PM you are an expert at mind games, trying to rile up your supporters about town and country. In this day and age and the sad thing is that the ordinary man on the street will buy into it.
Will you please stick to the point in issue Sir? It’s about corruption, corruption, corruption! No one wants to kick you out of Roseau or any other district in the country. You are a Dominican! We love you as a son of the soil, but we despise your behavior, contents of character, and your mode of operation, but you just don’t get it. You are yet to address all those allegations of corruption or the abuse of power.
Nobody can touch our beloved Prime Minister. Placed by the Almighty and protected by Him. A God fearing man. I exhort our people to rally behind him to develop our country. When he took office the country had suffered the pillaging of five years from ‘tous pas tous’, the death of two PM’s and countless other setbacks. He was not deterred. He put his shoulders to the wheel and we made it thru. A stronger nation, a better people. Bravo PM! Bravo!
Cest Mwenmem.
kyak kyak kyak kyak kyak.. um thanks for the laugh lol… always calling God’s name to make a man seem ‘holy’… that’s blasphemy
utter rubbish…..thumbs down……he is before he courts….thats a maor touch…many unaswered questions…..etc etc etc…cannot hide forever
HAH…
LOL…. HAHAHA… um maybe that roseau thingy would have worked 20 years ago… not right now.. u can hardly tell a ‘roseau’ person from a country person…. does the term country bookie still exist??? i don’t think so.. there isn’t any discrimination towards country folks by town folks… so this tactic is in vain…. eddo n lennox definitely aint ‘roseau’ people, i’d say skerro has a greencard to being roseau cause a member of the biggest bourgeois family is on his team, and they basically ‘run’ roseau lol
if you are to pray for skerro… then please pray that he owns up, and face the i.p.o… please pray he’ll be vindicated when he stands and tell the truth…… please pray that people n bandwagoners like ‘peeping tom’ aint in his ear like YEH YEH… telling him to do negative… pray for health, long life, truth and honesty for the p.m…..
NUFF SAID:
I agree with your point of view it’s not a Country/Roseau thing it have to do with what’s happening in the whole Island we have to put all the people and the Island after God he is King of all he survey The only man we should be giving praise to is the almighty father The p.m must redeem himself before coming to his for mercy and one of the ways he can do that is to show leadership and stop Tony form making him look more guilty
What nonsense is this who wants to kick you out of Roseau when is time to answer the people concern you talking nonsense in a town hall meeting . Smh sometimes I does wonder what’s going on your head stop the nonsense with the politicks
Word Up PM…Truer words have never been spoken.
Dem man can’t touch you, as along as you are PM.
Dominica will never allow lennox, grrovy bat, matt, carlisle, blessings, coipel, hector jean run DA
there are so many competent people waiting in the wings to lead this country forward when the cabal of corruption has been defeated. not defeated by stones and sticks but by a fear of an even deeper poverty by the people. A fear of running this state awol with crime, violence and corruption. As the great late martin Luther King once said ,” no lie can live forever” NO LIE
Competent….let them speak now…all I hear is lennox, blessing, matt, carlisle, coipel…..lol
Wake up. Even Hitler was disposed…
Correction…Hitler killed himself in a bunker in Berlin.
Keeep changing your name bro
The real correction due is in my spelling. For your own edification: Depose-remove from office suddenly and forcefully. I lived in Germany for 14 years. It is well-known that the Allied Forces cornered him in a bunker. What do you think they were there to do, throw him a tea party? The fact is that he was forced out. Had he not been forced into a corner, left with no other option than the cowardly act of suicide, he would have remained in power and your post would have been in German Mein Leibling.
