President of the Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches (DAEC) Reverend, Marcus Francis, believes that the language used at political events must be toned down and returned to civility.
On Friday both political party signed a Code of Conduct in light of the upcoming general election and Francis said on DBS’ Talking Point on Monday that although some work has been done in honoring the code, there is still a lot more to be done.
“I believe our leaders have done some work and have made some effort to putting things in perspective, but I believe that there is still much work to be done,” he said. “I have been listening to some of the speeches in more recent times and there is much work to be done. I believe that the language needs to be toned down.”
He called on politicians to to refrain from crossing the line by going into “people’s families and illnesses.”
“I want to make a very special appeal to all our candidates to stay away from people’s families, to stay away from references to people’s illnesses, former or otherwise,” Francs said. “I think that is highly distasteful and I think the language needs to be toned down and the language needs to come back to civility, and that’s on all sides.”
He urged all politicians to deal with the issues and be responsible in their approaches.
“It can be done in a civil way, it can be done in a responsible way,” Francis said. “We are not perfect people and from time to time in politics, there will be the heat, there will be the debate, somebody will go off track.”
He said he is suggesting that even if someone goes off track, that person should recognize it and say “I want to bring it back into perspective.”
“So that when leaders begin to do that their supporters will take a cue from it,” Francis said.
Meantime President of the Dominica Christian Council Reverend Novelle Josiah, who also added his voice to the matter, said, “There is a line that we should not cross. When it comes to the violence and the character assassination, sometimes we go too far.”
He called on all the politcal candidates to play their part in keeping colleagues in check by informing them when they go overboard.
“I believe if we were to do that, it would make a big difference,” he said.
Francis must be more straight forward. The filth is coming from the mouths of the Prime Minister and Reginald Austrie. I noticed he is generalising and that is where I have a problem with these so called religious. Be frank and open with the situation. Its nasty and say who are the persons bringing people to the gutter.
Where were you guys when the population was bawling.for justice.I told lennox he should not sign no damn code of conduct.cause all them fellas are the same.As skerritt leading the country astray so them religious leaders leading jah children astray.bunch of illuminatis
I truly believe Skeritt should keep to the issues of the country as Prime Minister and do not low grade himself.He has gone too far, one must win and one must loose be a man if you are defited remember Dominicans made enough sacrifices under you. People could not talk, assemble etc. It has gone too far. We need to take back our beautiful Dominica so change is a must.
I agree the pastor spoke in general , next time he must be more forceful. A genuene question, where are the catholic leaders, misionery Agustine, the pastor from St. CROIX, and others it is also your civil right to talk Jesus condemned all unrightiousness while on earth
Your spelling: should be defeated.
So you are placing yourself above the PM in righteousness? You are rather presumptuous. God judges heart. Remember he is judging yours. Therefore, judge no one that you are not judged two-fold. You probably are.
Like I said previously if those who drew up the so call code of conduct can’t speak or condemn them directly what good is it.Men of God must and should stand up against those who speak Ungodly about other people.Let God be the only judge of others.
They did what they felt obligated to do.
Were you one of those who said there should be separation of Church and State?
Do you have any common sense? No one can speak up and accuse others without proof. That is the Law. You are disobeying the Law.
Only the senseless who are also called fools do that. You people are the ones who judge. You are playing God. God will judge you in time.
OMG!
Alot of the souls on here are damned! trust me! letting your political views cause you to judge and say such things about our religious leaders? What Skerrit do allu he well do. What Linton giving allu he well giving it.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
God has taken note. Their day is coming. They are doomed. When dilemmas befall them they will wail. I hope they remember what they stated for it will return to hunt them. Those who say they are Christians should know that. I do think those people are radicals as their leader. Who wants such a person as PM?
You need to tone down lots of things i watched a video on yotube , absolutely disgusted all that twerking and hideous outfits. YUCK
I support the advice from Pastor Francis and perhaps we need to take a cue from my Parl Rep Mr Ambrose George and Opposition member for Colihaut Mr. Nicholas George. Incidentally two Georges. I am not a George neither a Judge but those two gentlemen are exemplary in their conduct. Cheers to you both!
What a joke!!!
That’s a bunch of Toothless Tigers!
Hypocrites!
Prophecy fulfilling!!!
so church and state is now one. All the religious folks should stop playing such a role in politics and focus on saving skeritt lost souls.
Church and State? It is God’s world. You cannot take him away from the State. He is scrutinizing everyone for their judgment. No exception, you.
How old are you? Since when do Dominicans refer to Church and State? Since you have TV and/or computer and internet? These have brought out the worst as disobedience and disrespect in people as you.
And what’s the repercussions for non compliance? If there is none that COC is invalid!
All they need now is a physical fight. Can you imagine in Uk and Europe, big men with posh accents dressed prim and proper in suits end up fist fighting in meetings! Well our politics worse but I hope that never happens so I will join with Marcus in praying for my country.
We have leaders in name only. I do not think many of them understand what good leadership is.
If you think so and appear to be such an expert, why do you not become a politician? Who knows? One day you may become the PM.
Tone down for what!!!!
You ask me for what?
Its is very shameful to hear all these filfy stuff coming out from the Labour party election candidates. The prime minister is just out of line, with his inhumane n discourteous words, and worst of all he is now calling on God to curse folks…
Next is mr Austrie, with so so much insulting n evil words comin from his mouth..
The whole slate of candidates and their speakers are being very nasty with their words…
How could one call these folks honourable.. the labour psrty is no role model to the children n youths..
The saddest part of this gutter poliitics is the applause of tge supporters…. Its a serious crime being a supporter of a party professing to be Christian but their words n actions reflect dat of darkness n satan.
St James in the bible warms us about the use of the tongue…
Sadly, these labour politicians and supporters, profess to be Catholics n members of the protestant churches…
Their priests, pastors and elders should be very concerned about the state of their souls. What does it profit a politician to win an election n lose his or her soul?
What does it profit a party to win an election n den lose its soul…. its coool to have ambitions but such ungodly actions just to win an election,,,, oh noooooo.
Please code of conduct commitee, call out da labour party for improper conduct…….
Goood thing there is life after election,,,,, Foool the peps but we cant foool God.
You worry about your soul. What is your lifestyle like? God knows!
My brothers, keep your voices in the conversation, among the clutter and all those who want you all stallwatts of a moral voice ( pastors, yet Sinful humans). Each person want you to represent their partisan view or interest, keep being and doing how and what you know how to do. Without taking sides, I believe the message is clear…. thanks man. I always hope that non pastors/priest remember that we are all equally sinners in need of redemption. The only difference is the quality of relationship with our saviour Jesus Christ. Keep the flame lit….
Tell us what is your quality of relationship with our Savior Jesus Christ. Do not be presumptuous. See about yourself. Too often people forget about themselves and concern themselves about others.
The silence of religious leaders in the face of alleged rampant corruption was and continues to be deafening. Am still waiting to hear religious leaders come out against alleged corruption, including paying for votes and flying voters into the island to vote. Thank You
Do not be silly. How can you expect them to talk when they know nothing and have not seen anything? Leave them out of this.
Mind your own business as they mind theirs. You cannot go about calling people corrupt when you have not witnessed anything. Hearsay and presuming are not the same as seeing/witnessing.
Have you seen anyone commit corruption? You should be hauled into Court and thrown into prison.
Religious leaders don’t need to call out anybody, that would cause division and chaos in churches and the island on a whole. Some things are better left unsaid.
Their obligation is to pray for them just as they pray for Dominica and nationals. They leave everything to God. This is what those critics should do instead of judging and condemning. They act as if they are some goody two shoes.
The Facts just like a parasite waiting for people to post comment to respond if it against skerrit. Give it a rest is not under people comments you getting your supper and breakfast
If it were the authentic Rosa Parks, an honest and just lady that she was, she would never make such a statement.
DNO allowed your comment to harass and persecute people which is unfair. Your comment has no bearing on this article and should have been prohibited.
You comment and expect others to respect you and what you state. Accord others the same. Learn to be respectful.
You comment in favor of Linton. I comment in favor of the PM. It is my prerogative to do so. It is none of your business if I feel like commenting and what I state. Mind your own business. If you want a better Dominica, pray for Dominica. While you are at it, pray for yourself. You are in dire need of God’s blessing, graces and enlightenment.
Know that Rosa Parks is displeased with you that you use her name in your comess which cause discord, disunity and division. You appear to be quite capable of that, you troublemaker.
Know that Rosa Parks was no troublemaker. I visualize that you will be punished for using her name. Wait and see.
mr minister/preacher this is not political language, it is rubbish and a language used by people who have a limited vocabulary. this is a desperate prime minister and co. who thinks that the SEAT BELONGS TO HIM ONLY..
dominica we have created a dangerous monster
To Pastor Marcus Francis In Jesus ‘ name Blessings and guidiance to you and your Family. I am much heartened by your call to the political parties/ Leaders to tone down their language, indeed this could be a beacon of light and hope for us all in this land. Even the blind ,deaf & dumb know who the culprits are who are taking politics in dominica to this very BASE level. Please do not resent those of us who criticize the CHURCH because the church always have had it’s low points in history. Pope Francis is a Great Man for apologizing for the wrongs which some of his Priest committed. The church is the watchMAN on the wall. the church is the sentinel the Church should not go to sleep or become convinently silent. Remember that Judgement begins at the House of GOD.

Man ask Lennox to apologise to your colleague PETER R AUGUSTINE. ALL YOU TO SELF RIGHTEOUS.
WANTING to remove annointment. You people said nothing to defend Peter. Neither you nor Pastor Rudeney.
I think you religious people have lost your moral authority and are playing too much politics under cover.
Rapist Ministers!!!!! Da Women prostitutes where were you ? Would do anything for cow meat – where were you?
Making noise/mepuissaying during the signing of code of conduct – what are you saying about that?
Why the fear to speak out directly ?
No wander we are where we are and christian girls cannot be diferentiated fom others. Look at how they are dressing to come to church ….xposed and yet we refuse to enforce dress codes at churches yet we talking about election code of conduct. pastors and preists we have work to do.
STOP PLAYING RED POLITICS
Yes I agree. Too much politics under cover. They wanted to crucify My bishop, Bill Daniel, who never stood on any pulpit preaching Politics. The only thing is that My Pastor was Bishop Exceptional. He prayed and gave council to Pm and the President of the state. Never did I hear him preaching politics , like those so called preachers now. Today they happy he not hear. His presence is so needed for stability. Just his humble self praying and interceding on behalf of the country. They detested him. They were jealous of him. They envied his position and look at them today, sitting, standing and lying down in that same position. All of them politically aligned. Thank God for Skerrit for fulfilling the Ministry of God in this land. No one is perfect and certainly , Skerrit is not perfect. His duty is to GOVERN and that he is doing with distinction.
You state moral? What is your moral like and what good example are you? If you are a man, have you never raped a woman or more of them? If not, do you think you do not have a relative or more who did? You are another one and people as you, hypocrites, the pot calling the kettle black.
He is a bit late with his reprimand and advice. Although better late than never, he said nothing when Linton made those derogatory comments at St. Joseph and Lugay made another one.
What is good for the goose is good for the gander. In addition, some of those who comment on this Website, they, too should have toned-down their words about the PM and others as well. They continue to make derogatory remarks. I would think this Code of Conduct should also apply to those who comment on this Website. These are the ones who criticize consistently but they have not changed their mannerisms on this Website. I hope you learn a lesson for the future.
Neither they nor u when the pm told dominicans go to hell it’s none our our damn business….
And you keep harping on it as a broken record. He must have had reason to make this statement. Cease harassing him. He is human. So you never told anyone go to Hell? Some of you are too much hypocrites, criticizing and you are no better. This is why I defend the PM. If only all of you who criticize him were perfect.
If you are a Christian, you are in dire need of godliness which you are not practicing. Our Lord said to forgive but you do not forgive. He said, “Unless you forgive from the heart, neither will My Heavenly Father forgive you.” Continue with your judging and see where you will end up and soon enough.
You really want to compare the UWP and Labour platforms? really? You want to compare Lennox giving a speech at a rally and Skerrit doing the same or Austrie for that matter?? I was saying that labour supporters seriously brain washed but now I a convinced that is something more than that…. must be in the DNA because it sounds like you more than believe what you just said.
What is this about speech? Realistic and smart Dominicans are not interested in the manner of a speech. They are interested in the progress of Dominica. Under the PM D/ca has progressed and will continue to be.
You are foolish to speak on behalf of other people. Are you in their brains? You are the one who is brainwashed. You want to vote for a man who is vindictive and who cannot wait to plunge D/ca into regress and hardship. Think again when you call DLP supporters brainwashed. They are the most intelligent. They are not radicals.
CHEUPZ a big red dat der
So what you want Skerrit to do ..they call them corrupt,rapest,voler name it…Now the heat is on allu vex…If u can’t take the roughness doh come in de jam.
It is a shame the type of people we have as leaders.I listened to Austrie at the meeting in Castle Bruce and he was disgraceful. nothing that the younger people can emulate.I have two questions > is smuggling crabs worse than smuggling human beings?I will hold the other. Let him think on this one.
Dominican politics is uncivilized.
He was the same one who made fun of the late Ferdinand Frampton. He does not know what will befall him.
who would vote for such a man>
?how many houses does he have? why does he think another should not have a six bedroom house.
This man should not be a public figure and so are many others within his circle.
Always griping. Where will this get you?
Hypocrite religious leaders.
You guys have no credibility
What are the relious leaders saying about skerrit using the church and the gospel songs for his political milage?
God is not mocked
He is a Christian. He has every right to use the Church and the Gospel songs.
God created you just as God created him. God belongs everywhere even in politics and political campaigns. You cannot keep God out. If the Holy Spirit wants the Word of God and the Gospel songs sung, it will happen and it did.
If you are a Christian (some of you are not genuine Christians due to your ungodly mannerisms), you must always “Think God” and not be critical of Gospel songs, wherever they are sung. It is God’s world and God will have his way.
When you stand before God you will find out who is the hypocrite.
.. name names u know which party tht taking part in such… their campaign is based on sewo and calling ppl names… A bunch of cartoons characters and lil children!!!!
Rev. Francis, last night Mr. Skerrit referred to himself as “The Lion of Judah.” I expected to hear you and others to condemn this statement. Rev. 5:5
It was Gadafi who said he was the King of Kings and Lord of Lords ! ! ! !
My brother, Please learn from the mistakes of those you are succeeding and stop playing religion. If Lennox Linton and UWP candidates use dirty language in public you need to call them out by name. If it is Skerrit and his DLP candidates, then call them out by name as well. until you are prepared to do just this, you need to take a seat.
Could not say it better.We need the issues debated that are affecting the people.Not people’s personal lives.
They should accompany you into your home to see if you are using dirty language. I bet you do, you hypocrite, dictating to people. Control your language even in your home and wherever else you may be for God is hearing and taking note.
So are they saying Reginald Austrie is not allowed to speak for the rest of the season? I do not believe he has anything positive or sensible to say. Alas, poor Austrie!
I agree.mthis is the worst I have seen in Politics in Dominica. This a a shame how grown individuals can stoop so low in bringing each other down.. Go bak to the old times get your shirts off and box man to man and leave the childish behaviour aside . It is appalling to see the state in which Dominica Politics has become really….
i mean than the constitution.
Lenox should not go no where with these guys because them fellas have no respect for law. Remember that famous statement no law no constitution? so how do we expect them to honor a promise to stay within the limits of a code which is less important than an election code?
And so you stated that Lennox always respects the Law? In your sight Lennox can do no wrong. He must be one perfect person without a flaw. Well, assist him with the Court case whereby he used unbecoming language about the PM and his ministers.
And Which Law Did Lennox Break that has him in court with Ministers? Man/Woman Think before you speak. This is a Civil Matter and No Law was broken.. its a dispute between private parties.. smh
you sot wi. Why you think the ministers fraid to answer the case? Open your ears to hear and your eyes to see.
Pure hypocrisy on their part. Too little and much too late. The ink did not even dry on the agreement, that Messrs Skeritt , Austrie, Tony and the notorious gang of political hooligans were out there, vilifying and cursing down every opposition member and supporter.
The pastors and priests are so preoccupied in receiving trinkets, bribes and privileges from the hands that they have no time to acknowledge his vicious violations of the rights of others.
The Dominican clergy is the most politically pampered bunch in the Caribbean. T
If there is something you should never do is to speak ill about the Priests and accuse them of what they did not do. It is attacking them and through the Media. Your day is coming.
I think you need to shut up The Facts… here is a fact you condoning everything skeptic and them do and condemning Linton and them if you so just and right you will condemn all wrong. Go and rest and look for your brain too. Come back later when you ready to speak justly
The priest need to be born again.They need to speak against the evils of society and not be fooled by a few dollars, The same goes to the pastors.
@Facts
Get thee behind me Satan! I rebuke you in the name of Jesus. May all the curses you call reverse on you in multitudes!
Anyone who upholds and covers sin is a sinner. Your use of diabolic icons speak volumes of you.
Only God will determine the fate of man. Its blasphemous of you and any other wannabe pastor to attempt to usurp this role. There is a heavy price for that.
The bible ask people to speak the truth, so C will not apologise for saying the truth. So begone you whiten sepulcher!!
Who Jah bless no man curse!
Rev.Novelle Jasiah, Skerrit and the Bishop are jokers that’s all I have to say about the merit of the agreement.
This is what you deserve and more which, in time, you will get.
what are the consequences for those leaders who break the code? Since there were none stipulated, some of the labour party politicians take it for a joke. Any how you should know that these people are not trustworthy. That’s why change is a must.
These men of the cloth need to show that they are men with back bone, when all they are doing is watching a bully on a playing field harassing the other kids and rather than saying to the bully , stop that nonsense, they just say “you all behave yourselves.” what is the use of having someone sign a code of conduct if you cannot police it? what good would it be for you to say you are bringing people together to come to an agreement and when it is broken, all you can say is “all you play nice?” The evangelicals are the ones that were telling the Prime Minister how great he was, now that he is making them shame with his gutter behavior and his inability to tame his big dog, now they are saying don’t cross the line, so what if they do, and they have, if you listened to any of the labour party meetings this weekend, so now we say… Boys be nice, don’t play too rough. where is the condemnation for the Prime Minister cursing Mr. Linton in the name of the Lord, where is the teeth of that document that you signed? Gentlemen, you can fool the masses with you fancy talk, I wonder if you really believe that you can fool the one in who’s name you profess to speak?
Child of God? No way! Who do you think you are? Those who consider themselves a child of God will never attack Priests and a Bishop at that and criticize them. You are the hypocrite who also lack respect. God knows it too.
You are dictating to them what they should state? The fact it was agreed to have the Code of Conduct signed which was previously discussed, it is sufficient.
You did not get the drift. You need to develop common sense and intelligence. You are no perfect person. Therefore, cease your criticisms.
IThe Facts November 17, 2014 I agree with you. These Dominicans are claiming divinity, through this name that name and the other name, and yet they have no respect for the Divine One, God Almighty Himself.
In the ancient days of Israel, Saul was the appointed King for the people , and he was after David to kill him. But when David found him and his men fast asleep behind a rock–he could have done whatever he wanted to Saul, but he did not lay a hand on him. Why? Read it below, from 1st. Samuel 24:
6 And he said to his men, “The Lord forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the Lord’s anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the Lord.” 7 So David restrained his servants with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul
I will continue to say to you, people of Dominica, that God is in control; He makes the decision as to what will happen in our country–through those whom He has appointed–their behavior–whatever its nature– belong in His power and His alone, you have no authority to judge them –take heed of this warning.
Are’nt Priests and Bishops men like all other men? Hmmmmmm
PM never curse priest, bishop and pastor go do your homework.
You’re not serious as a Religious authority…
If you refrain from naming the exact Political Party (The Dominica Labour Party) who’s perpetuating this wave of obscene language then you’re doing a disservice to Dominica. I just don’t hear the United Workers Party doing the same, so why generalise your appeal – you should be bold and courageous in your attempt to keep the peace.
What the PM and his Cabinet are demonstrating is that no Law or Constitution can abate them from doing as they wish. These are worrying signs for Dominica and doesn’t urgur well for us Civilians living here and abroad.
You did not hear them? You mean, all that while you were either sleeping or deaf?
Cease harping on the same thing over and over again. It now has become like a broken record.
DAEC set the standards and if rules are broken it is the responsibility of the DAEC to take what action they see fit. The code of conduct has no teeth.Skerrit sent Ambrose to sign yet another trap, so that he comes out clean as a whistle.One thing I know a leopard skin cannot be changed,Lang sal is DLP motto .
I wonder how do you conduct yourself in private, in words and deeds? This is why your comments do not move me in the least. They are a waste of time.
The facts I think you neef to occuoy yourself
. You too idle
If Skeritt was to tone down his political language, the mapuis, how do they expect him to win the general election. That is the only way he knows. One would have thought when the man became Prime Minister, he would have changed , but he has become worst. Imagine, the ink on the paper the code of conduct was signed, did not even dry, the man was on a rampage, calling Mr. Linton all kinds of defamatory names. His co partner, Tony, was even more destructive. , I believe this code of conduct is just not taken seriously, just talk. I wish to suggest that a penalty of $1000 should be charged to any politician who is guilty of violating the code of conduct.
Why are these so called church leaders so hypocrite. Come out straight and say a spade is a spade. They know very well that its the LABOUR LABOR Party politicans assisinating the other party candidates character. We all saw and heard them on TV. All week-end, the night at GRAnd Fond you should ha heard them LABORS and their supporters cheering and shouting, on Saturday night the same story and as for yesterday at Bth Estate it was shameful.. I was watching and listening to both parties, switching between channels and trust me, it was a plesure to listen to the other party. LABORS were empty and disgusting. Just to shameful and if you think the Leader was a good example, he was just as bad. These guys stoop so low you’d think they come from the gutters. I don’t think any person should hold them in high regards. SHAME ON THEM and shame on those who are afraid to speak direct to LABORs and tell them to STOP it.
To God be the glory, eh? Are you not a hypocrite? It would be a good thing if everyone, no exception yourself, cease sinning against God and offending him. When you have done that, then criticize and call others hypocrites. Until then, you are as guilty as Hell of the same.
Here you go again demonstrating your ignorance.
Judge not lest ye be judge….. you seem to have a plaster for everyone sore but your own…..be warned God is definetly not mocked.
What are the words of glory that you are giving to God through that futile comment of yours? Do you even know what the term “glory” means? Much more to know God; or else you could never speak such futility and claim you are glory to God.
Stupes…why don’t they call a spade a spade ?……They are generalising their comments, when they KNOW who are the ones NOT adhering to the code.
And they expect people to take them serious !
Stupes
Copycat. Only repeating what you heard others state. Some people do not comprehend the difference in speaking at a campaign, laying down the faults of the opposition as perceived and their election promises just to get elected and what the code of conduct is.
It is not their place to point finger at anyone or to mention people’s names–they are not God.
That is also the reason they do not speak directly to people, if they think they have done wrong, for that is always their opinion–which may not be guided by God; they cannot make any judgment without God’s guidance.
Therefore they are right to speak in general; those in question should know their place and to decide what to do with that place–the rest remains in God’s hands, as usual
is it fine for the primeminister skerrit to make reference about SEXY Dominiican girls???
Now that’s a man! A real man who happens to be a pastor. Congratulations for taking a stance and speaking out Pastor Francis.
Oh yea, what you don’t know older than you. These “so called men of God need to clean up their acts while they are sitting down. Too many pretenders behind God’s pulpit. They have failed God’s people. Get rid of the presences, adultery, fornication and other uncleanness before you come out and shout. The word says if my people who are called by my name will HUMBLE themselves and pray and TURN from their wicked ways, then and only then will I hear from heaven and heal their land.
Religious leaders, stop the hypocrisy behind God’s pulpit. Sit down and clean your act, leaders, ask your church for forgiveness, including those you caused to leave the church because of your wicked intentions. President of DAEC, huh, go to God my brother, go back to God.
The problem with some people as you, you give advice but in your personal and social life what are you like? Well, God knows. You cannot hide from him. You might as well save your words for yourself.
man stop. Seriously stop.
You all stayed silent for 5 years and now all of a sudden you all want to talk ?
Take your government appointments and wherever else, deal with Pichelin and keep your hypocrite views to yourself.
The response by the religious leaders are too generic, and broad-stroked. They must quote samples of specific statements and the politicians who made those statements in order to illustrate to everyone what constitutes a violation of the election code of conduct.
They must demonstrate that they will not hesitate to call out the offenders irrespective of who they are.
Not holding our leaders accountable is one of the reasons our politicians have no respect for us citizens of Dominica.
How can teachers prevent bullying in the schools when our children hear it everyday from the leaders of this country. Call a spade a spade or shut up. Stop making a mockery of what serious people do when they vouch to do stamp out undesirable behaviours.
SAVE DOMINICA FOR OUR CHILDREN NOT FOR YOUR SKIN POCKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I concur. The political environment has been just despicable lately. it really needs to be toned down…Smh.
I haven’t heard these toned from Mr.Linton his a humbleguy, but from his some supporters they’re so ignorant and arrogant they failed to respect each individual opinions.
on both sides… but labar take de cake
I really do despair. Why can’t you so called religious leaders call out the Labour Party? They are the ones crossing the line so just call them out, end of story.
