Former acting chief justice of the OECS, Sir Brian Alleyne, is of the opinion that Dominica’s leader, Roosevelt Skerrit, does not display the qualities of a prime minister.
Alleyne was responding to a call by Skerrit to opinion shapers to discuss what are the eligibility requirements to be prime minister of Dominica.
“I want to hear from the business community, I want to hear from civil society, I want to hear from the church, I want to hear from the legal profession and I want hear especially from Sir Brian Alleyne,” the prime minister told a Dominica Labour Party (DLP) delegates conference on Sunday. “What in your view are the eligibility requirements for the post of prime minister in modern day Dominica.”
In an interview with DNO on Monday, Alleyne said a prime minister must have respect for the people “and a determination to serve people and to respond to their needs.”
“A prime minister would certainly not tell his people that matters of public concern are not their damn business and they should go to hell,” he stated. “That is directly contrary to the requirements of a prime minister.”
Alleyne said secondly that a prime minister should have honesty and integrity in both public and private affairs.
He further stated that a prime minister should lead the people in such a way that “they build their character, build their awareness and knowledge of public affairs.”
“The prime minister has not demonstrated that quality,” Alleyne said.
He also said communication is important in the job of a prime minister. “Commuication with people in a respectful way so that you involve not only your supporters but everybody in the affairs of commuity building and nation building,” he stated.
“If I were to be asked whether the prime minister has demonstrated the qualities of leadership that are required in a prime minister I would say definitely not,” he noted.
He stated that political parties should always discuss what are the requirements needed to be prime minister, especially during election time.
“Political parties should be discussing what are the qualities required of leadership, not only of the prime minister but representatives in parliament,” Alleyne said.
During his speech to the delegates conference Skerrit said any candidate presented by the DLP to be prime minister must be competent, experienced, trained and a visionary.
“He must demonstrate the capacity to inspire people, unite this country on national issues and motivate us all to do what is right including sacrifices when necessary in the interest of Dominica,” he stated.
The prime minister also said the candidate should be known and respected regionally and internationally, must be held in high esteem by colleague prime ministers and ‘not as an errand boy for hire.’
Being Prime Minister is not just a job that you apply for and the one with the best academic resume gets it. A Prime Minister is a leader who must be chosen by the people. The main quality of any leader is an ability to motivate and inspire his followers to perform above themselves. When Napoleon was asked to appoint a new general in his army he never bothered about which military school he went to all he asked was ‘is he lucky.’ Lennox Linton was chosen by the people because the people think that is what they want and that is all. If you think he is not suitable then do not vote for him and stop knocking out yourselves over his education qualifications.
JoJo, speaking and writing are traits some people as you are in dire need of. Learn to communicate without attacking, throwing words, being personal and delving into the personal life of others. This Website is to be utilized for communication purposes, providing our comments and not otherwise as previously mentioned. Some people as you have taken unfair advantage of this and the opportunity DNO grants to all Users which I do not need to elaborate on. Sensible people should know what I mean.
Those of us or some of us who reside overseas have expanded our education, knowledge and experience. The exposure has done us good in that we have benefited from it. We have acquired a certain degree of expertise to comment and to assist our country, land-of-birth. My writing which also comes from my brains, mind, heart and intelligence should reflect it. People are judged by what they state just as by the company they keep.
Those who reside in Canada and who are employed there, pay their fare share of taxes, paying their dues to Canada. They are entitled to whatever benefits the government gives to all those who qualify. They have merited it. This government owes me something. I do not owe the government anything except to pay my annual taxes. At this moment I owe the Canadian government absolutely nothing. It owes me.
When the day comes for me to reap the benefits of my hard-earned work and struggles, I will happily accept it and say, thank God who has given me life, health and strength to have achieved it. May He continue to grant them to me and to protect me until the day He calls me for my eternal judgment which I hope is Heaven. O Happy Day!
I hope wherever you reside until that inevitable day, at this moment of your life, you can make the identical statement.
Some people as you are not wise and understanding. Whenever people stand up for the truth they are called all sorts of derogatory names and referred to as being un-Christian-like. Are you sane? Do you not know the difference between a Christian-like person and an un-Christian-like one?
Examine your conscience. Are you Christian-like? Are you a better Christian than I? Simply read the writings and you will know. This is how I judge what type of people you are, by your writing for they come from the heart as imbedded in it.
Know that you have your opinion and I have mine. I am not a foolish person. I have the godly instinct to support who and what is right and who will make a suitable leader for Dominica, in the same manner I have chosen my friends wisely, those whom I wish to associate with, who share something in common with me and who will enhance my life. Thanks be to God. Therefore, respect my views.
SMFH whenever this troll and hypocrite Justice and Truth comment. If you Christian like ebeh I am a saint
Always throwing words at people instead of comprehending what was stated. It may be that you are without understanding.
Some of you cannot read between the lines and comprehend what the writer stated and the reason why it was stated.
I am not in a competition with you or anyone else. A statement was made which was directed at me and I rightfully responded.
God is the judge of all. A person is judged by what they state and what is imbedded in their heart.
As for you, I am not impressed. By this God will judge us. Ensure what you state is pleasing to God. Some Christian you are, always throwing words and stones. God knows your heart.
You only know what the person wrote. You know absolutely nothing about the person and you are making such an ignorant statement.
Instead of some Dominicans trying at least to get along on this Website, they expend much time and energy in tearing their fellow Dominicans apart. These have projected that they are not peaceful people. Can one imagine if they were face to face what they would do to others? Dangerous people.
As St. Paul said, “If you go on biting at each other, you will soon devour each other.”
Ouch!!!
That sure did hurt Skerro…lol
Thanks Sir Brian Alleyne!
Shameful! AlL leaders in the Caribbean are well -educated. We are not in ancient times when few people had educational opportunities. I can’t believe a Chief Justice would say education isn”t important.
Shameful that you would sell Dominica for 30 pieces of Silver to a european company
“I can’t believe a Chief Justice would say education isn’t important”…. ummmm… did you see an extension of the article that I didn’t see?? I don’t see that statement or anything like it anywhere above…??!!??
Skerrit speaking about being known regionally and internationally but was HE KNOWN regionally and internationally before he became Prime Minister of Dominica? NO HE WAS NOT so that point is poor!
I am in agreement with Sir Brian Alleyne, Skerrit has no respect for the people.
Sir,
In your official capacity, please do everything in your power to separate church and State, then and only then can Dominica move forward as a country.
What people believe is their decision, it should not have any bearing on state policy. This cap in hand mentality has to stop.
What nonsense have you stated? Dominica is a Christian country. Yet, is the Church interfering into the affairs of the State? By making such a comment, you have shown your atheism which means you are against God and his Church.
Be careful! You will die one day and sooner than you expect. You will stand before God for your eternal judgment. Your words cannot change or sever what God has ordained from the beginning of time for each one of us. Keep this in mind, atheist.
Nonsense. Justice and Truth. You are still groping. We must separate both sides of the issue here. We all are going to die one day, whether we are believers or not. The question is directed to the reader, and what his answer reflects has nothing to do with his beliefs in the church or state. l agree, too many people are holding on to their clutched hands.
There are ministers of government who have no qualifications at all. There are ministers of government, one in particular, who is so uncouth that I am inclined to believe that he came from the gutter, the garbage. Yet that same unqualified, uncouth minister has been appointed to act as Prime Minister a number of times. Shouldn’t all persons who hold the office of PM, including acting PM be qualified? Was the PM ever concerned about the qualifications of those persons he was suggesting should act as PM? I don’t think so. It is convenient for him to raise the issue now but it wasn’t convenient when DLP was selecting candidates to represent them. Please give me a break
You are right and we should demand qualification across the board. Just as I need to be qualified to have a Govt. job so to should the pal reps and more so the Prime Minister. We demand this from our children so we should demand it from our leaders. Today when you apply for a job what gets you through the first door is your qualifications (CV)and then how you respond during the interviews. Lets demand qualification from our leaders as they do for us.
The PM urged Dominicans to contribute to the debate on qualification for Prime Minister as many Dominicans led by the UWP were actively engaged in the discussion about the qualifications of someone for President. Because Brian Alleyne has been active on the media promoting high levels of moral and ethical values, he was singled out as someone who might be able to bring an objective balance to the discussion. Sir Brian was challenged and responded. Of course he thought PM Skerrit is not a fit and proper person to be leader of Dominica.
Where Sir Brian failed in his response is to forthrightly say that Pm Skerrit is not a good for leadership here but so and so would be a better leader. you see where Brian failed in his response. He was more interested in the Skerrit factor than in the real question.mr. Alleyen, answer the question fair and square. Do you believe that the leadership of Dominica is better suited by an acknowledged novice, a high school drop out, a man who it is now known to have certain secret dealings with questionable characters, a man who is an accomplice in a dal to divert a potentially rewarding economic program to another country rather than leave it in Dominica. Will Dominica’s leadership be better served by someone who has demonstrated a total lack of respect for the views of other individuals that are not in sync with his own? that is the question Sir, Brian. you have only answered on part of the question. Why stop there?
For those workers supporter who are quick to jump and laugh out in glee. Please note that Brian was deafeningly silent on your leader’s capacity to lead the country. Perhaps Brian found Skerro to be the lesser of the two evils such that he did not want to even mention the name of the specialist in every subject matter including that of “removing the anointment from the Lord’s annointed”. That particular skill must have thrown out Sir Brian.
Hogwash! The challenge to AB-K was in terms of her suitability not academic qualification, so as such mr alleyne answered the question. Do you have the facts to state that Lennox dropped out of school? You continue to make such assertion even after Lennox has stated that he did in fact finish DGS. Are you telling us that Lennox lied? If he did then shame on him but I’m sure there are persons who attended DGS with him. Novice! What is so bad about being a novice? If I suddenly appeared on a political platform in the eyes of everyone I am a novice but how do you know what my interaction with politics and politicians has been before that appearance? As far as I’m concerned Lennox has proven himself to be more capable than skerritt.
“What in your view are the eligibility requirements for the post of prime minister in modern day Dominica.”
requirements; what is needed
u did not answer question. good choice of words but there a some who knows u did not answer the questions.
I will tell u this doe Lenox Linton does not have the educational capabilities to be PM.
we need people with education not just mouth, novice please.
We need people who do not LIE, STEAL, CHEAT. Those who do not INSULT the people, those who are NOT GREEDY,ARROGANT, and afraid of debates.
Please tell us where in the constitution of Dominica it mentions minimum education requirements for the job of prime minister? I am sure you won’t find that listed there, therefore your emphasis on Mr Linton’s education is not a salient point.
Well said.
Dem Laybarites have no brain they cannot pay there light bill but see dem fat bastards dancing in red.
Is that all you can come up with?
this is Mr. Alleyne’s opinion. He has never hidden his prejudice and againsdt PM Skerrit. I honestly never understaood why Pm Skerrit singled him out, knowing as we all know Sir Brian’s dislike for Skerrit.
When Pm Eugenia Charles fought to deprive Brian of the leadership of her party referring to him as a lazy man, I am sure Brian thought that assessment to be wrong. After all he served with Eugenia for fifteen years in government. the only public knowledge of disagreement between them was over the sale of a a particular government property in Roseau, which it is alleged occured during a time when Brian acted PM. The public later found out that she thought of him to be a lazy person and she would not allow him to lead her party much more to be PM of Dominica. We take Sir Brian’s biased opinion of Skerrit as Gospel. Was Mamo’s opinion of Brian then, now Sir Brian a correct and proper assessment of him be taken to the bank of public opinion? Opinions are just that, opinions which everyone is entitled to have and even share. That is where Lennox, THE NOVICE has to learn. His opinion on any issue, which he has a right to, is not and cannot be authoritative. He is a High School drop out, Sir Brian. By the way I did not hear Sir Brian say that lennox is a or could be a better leader than PM Skerrit.
Skerrit singled him out because Skerrit like trouble. Anyway, I see Sir Brian as someone who has been able to put personality and his opinion aside when he is commenting. Eg, on the dual citizenship issue re PM, he clearly stated what the thinking behind the dual citizenship caveat is, BUT then, he said that maybe we as Dominicans want to reconsider if we want that requirement… and if we don’t, it is simple enough to change the constitution to reflect what we as a people want.
But, Reggie Austrie told Sir Brian he should stop commenting and go lock himself in his toilet…!!! So, why PM calling him out now? Let the man stay in his peace and quiet on his toilet then, and read some good books!! You want to hear him, or you doh want to hear him???
LOL – this is a classic case of “be careful what you wish for”. I am independent of both parties because I believe they both are wanting. Having said that, I watched parts of a live stream of the just-concluded Labour Party delegates conference and I must say, I am alarmed at the rhetoric from some of the people on the dais. I understand the concept of energising your “troops” for the upcoming electoral battles, but the words used and the manner of speaking by some in ministerial positions, in particular Reginald Austrie, is downright embarassiing to me as a Dominican. A minister of government speaking is such a low-down, gutter manner is something every Domiican should be ashamed of. You leave that kind of talk to the low-information supporters, those who stand at te street corner – but as a minister of government, one who acts as PM on occasion, you ought to rise above that kind of talk, and speak like you’re educated. If I resided in his constituency, I would not vote for him just for that – I want someone to represent me who has dignity, someone who knows how to conduct themselves as a public figure. I don’t care what benefit he may bring to my community, I am sure he’s not the only one who could and would work for the community – I want a dignitary as my representative, not a bum.
But Reggie said that he was educated in the jungle. I guess you missed that.
That would account for his tarzan-like way of speaking to and about people. I guess I missed when he said that.
DNO you don’t have to post my comment. Keep posting all those disrespectful comments those UWP supporters posting. their comments will not make you popular anywayzzz.
nonsense…they are already popular.pointless!
oh shut up!!! If your comment was crap that is why it was not posted, not because you’re a labourite….. sot!
Thank you Sir Brian Alleyne for an intelligent and timely response to Mr. Skerrit on why he does not display the characteristics of a prime minister…
is this the Johnathan St jean that I know . Cuz nice to see that you are following whats happening back home.
Hi J, How is it going? Good to see u keeping up with things. This is another J calling your way, from New Town
DNO where is the rest of my comment?are you cutting and pastting now?
Live politics alone go rest you self. There is a certain time in our life that we just have to stop.
Mr alleyne don’t want to be in that mess with skerrit
@ Nice This is exactly what you have to do: ‘Go to Hell’! ‘Go to Hell’ ‘Go to Hell’! ACCORDING TO insultive and arrogant Skerrit, your GOD!
GOOD OVERVIEW OF SKERRIT SIR BRIAN.
We knew that all along, but if you listen to the RED CLINIC recipients, you would think he’s the messiah.
To DNO Editors:
Did he express an opinion regarding the newly install leader of the UWP?
If not, why not?
ADMIN: If you read the story (which we hope you did) the prime minister specifically called on Sir Brian for his opinion. That is why we contacted him. To our knowledge the new leader of the UWP never called on Sir Brian for his opinion on anything. He he had done that, of we would have called Sir Brian for a reaction.
Dear Editor: My question repeated – Did Brian – who you interviewed – Did he express an opinion regarding the newly install leader of the UWP?
I did not ask if Lennox Linton expressed an opinion. Brian spoke of the qualities for a PM – which Linton wants to be – – – and – – – the current PM ask Brian to discuss what qualities a PM should possess – for both UWP leader and the Labor leader.
With due respect – Brian only spoke of the Labor leaders’ failing qualities, in his (Brian’s) view.
The underlying question the PM is asking Dominicans – does Linton have those positive qualities a PM should have; – after all – the current PM – has been PM for a few years.
Editors – I hope you can answer the question – I asked – and not the question you think I asked.
Respectfully, thank you.
But that is NOT the issue. Skerrit called on Sir Brian to speak on the general qualifications of a Prime Minister. DNO call him and ask him what the question. U sending them and ask him what he think about lennox?? And then for if he speak in favor of lennox for allu to say he is UWP to discard what he said?
If you believe Mr. Linton doesn’t have the qualities Skerrit possesses, you can do one of two things, arrange a debate between both parties or have Dominicans listen and judge both addresses given at their respective Deligate Conferences.
We need a Larry King or Oprah, people who will not just accept what one side says but ask the questions and seek the answers that the people would like to know from both sides.
Larry King would have ask and what about the person who wants the PM job? Do you think what we have heard so far have any merit? And do you believe that we as citizens should be concerned?
This is why I support DNO wholeheartedly, honesty is its second name, unlike DaVibes.
Mr Prime Minister, you ask and you got an answer,And he is stating the facts. Whats wrong with being and Errand Boy at least it is a job.
Eligibility and conduct are different altogether. The man is eligible, his conduct to some may not be agreeable. Yet no one man can make everyone…
Ok Sir Brian – what actually makes a good PM?
I know what you do not like in Skeritt- but what non Skerritt possessed qualitites make for a great…
Please read and try to understand what Sir Brian wrote and you will maybe come to realize what it will take make a good PM.
Labourites I advise you to not get involved with these talking heads just keep on building your own community and improving your life.Ignores these…

Stupes I hate a labourite more, Y? Its because of their ignorance/stupidity they noticed how another is stupid
Don’t you realise all labourite are not wise? I have never come accross one that have some sense. It;s a shame.
Why are the blue fanatics trying to dominate the DNO blogs with comments and likes/ dislikes. Folks, Neither DNO nor Q is going to determine the…
Why is it only now that it is blue fanatics who are commenting?….In the past when every little thing said about Skerrit, bad or not, was given…
Nicely said Sir Alleyne, I commend you on the comments made….A leader should not serve according to the party u belong too, but make people change…
I believe that when Dominicans begin to realise that they have been only looking to the Prime Minister for this and the Prime Minister for that and…
Sir Brian you seem to know all what a PM should not be, however, most interestingly you did not answer the question, so I will ask you again

DNO I think you should add a chat room to your website
DNO, Is your server crashing? It cannot stand the heat of responses for this hot debate If so you may need to repair it or purchase a new one
Alleyne u miss the most Important point a leader tells his supporters whe he getting Married!
In response to the call by Dominica’s Minister Roosevelt Skeritt for Dominicans from all walks of life to define the qualities of a Prime Minister,…
Election hot wee,, i Agree with that man,, The Prime Minister should have honesty and integrity both public and private affairs,,,, how the heck a leader of a country geting married and he don’t feel that the people should know,, where is the integrity. I love my PM but i’m sorry that was a low down dirty shame.
Do you have any common sense? His marriage is his personal business. He is not married to the people. His marriage is not a political one. What has his marriage got to do with Dominicans? Do you see the sense of this?
He is the leader of the country, the most polite thing he could do is introduce he wife, Dominica’s first lady, He could have scored alot of points, it would make him look human and down to earth, thats the qualities people look for in there leader.
I’m supprise, that he and those around are bathing with degrees, and yet did not use it to their advantage
His marriage has a lot to do with D/cans. Everything he does has to do with D/cans.
You may not see the sense in it, but everything the PM does must be the business of every D/can. We did not make it so, but it is so.
I suspect Mr Alleyne is making a case to be PRESIDENT, but Sir you will not enter the WHITE PALACE.
All you can beat all u self up but this Prime Minister will be there for a LONGggggggggggg time. When you all get beaten again so badly we will see who will be DISCARDED. Stop suffering from Election Defeat. LINTON will never be Prime Minister. You doh see Hector had the ting about being the next Prime Minister see what they do him they bypass him for a HIGH SCHOOL DROP OUT that want to challenge Stinberge Henry, who has all his QUALIFICATION. Can u imagine that? Labour all the way.
You are the exact one beating yourself go drink some water
Sir Brian, with all due respect, the late Dame Eugenia Charles and the Dominican people already answered the question as far as you are concerned that is why you could never have been leader of this country. The Dominican people have already answered that question on two occasions in 2005 and 2009 and gave the PM their nod of approval (and I must add will again for a third time whenever elections are called). Nothing you say or do can change that. So go then and pass on your leadership advice to Lennox because his pass grade will be the same as that which you received as leader of the DFP i.e an F.
I respect Sir Brian, but he must blame himself for the pressure that is being thrown at him by Skerrit and for the disaster Dominica has found itself in today. He was one of those who supported the DLP against the UWP in the General Elections of 2000.I have never heard Skerrit throwing mapuis at Dr. Honeychurch and Parry Bellot, because they keep their mouths closed when it comes to criticisms of Skerrit. Maybe he should join the gang again.
UTTER RUBBISH
brian you a in no position for no body listen to you the dominican forget all you did was look down on them
OK KING IGNORANT
I am totally disappointed in sir Brian’s response.
biased labourite and member of the Red Clinic? Of course you would be disappointed!!
Sir Brian is that your intellectual response? you just cant be serious. is this what our students expect of you? you are a lay associate in the catholic church. I am now calling on the Bishop to remove you as a Lay Associate. what example are you to the people you claim you preach the gospel to? you have been losing all your credibility. now you appear as a man who is very bitter with the Government. Bitter with the prime minister. Bitter that you did not get something after you retired from the bench. You seem and sound to disgruntled. Mr. Alleyne, please answer the question in a balance and intelligent manner. we the college students are disappointed in your response. Please don’t make the subject matter Roosevelt Skerrit the subject matter. its about the future leaders of our country.
@ den. Mr skeritt can be criticized by anyone anytime and it your right to dissagree so . All the pm needs to do is prove dominicans otherwise.
no need for that Christianity has no wright in politic keep them apart
Sir Alleyne is right because he is the one the UWP want for president. I am still awaiting his take on Lennox Linton. If he had spoken about both leaders i would respect his word. He ensured that he did not comment on Lennox at all.
that’s true
Leave Lennox out of that; it is Skerrit that demanded and challenged Sir Brian and not by letter but on a political platform for everyone to hear; now all you get an answer all you crying. Is Sly that sang ” who beat you; you crying” well be carefull what you all ask for!
I am very disappointed in your response Mr Alleyne. It shows that you are no better than the Mr. Skerrit. It is amazing how fast we forget! The late Eugenia Charles was adamant that she didnt want you to succeed her as leader of the Freedom party, why? As soon as Freedom lost the election, what did you do? You bailed out on all the freedomites who supported you. What kind of leader is that? You, Mr Alleyne, who are you, therefore, to come and talk about Mr Skerrit´s leadership? You, Mr Alleyne, should remove yourself from Dominican politics once and for all! You think all Dominicans are foolish? Sing for your super!
why did mr allyne not comment at the leader of the workers party, the aspiring prime minister, so all of us can make a true comparisn
Ehben DNO YOU NOT EASY NUH. UWP ites alone dat does comment and thumbs up and down on that man
Anybody ever wondered why labor party conventions have so many old people? It’s because they do not care about the future on Dominica and the old is usually very easy to please. Just give them a little shack, and you got their vote. Also I like how they actually have the audacity to publicize any little thing that they do even if it’s just giving a 50 cents small bread, but in all truth, they must document everything that they do because they aren’t doing much. Another note I listened to kairi just to get kixx on how biased labor party supporters are.. Today MAMMY call and give the UWP so much “dirty” talk, then immediately after some illiterate man with a horse voice calls and says the difference between UWP and LABORITES is that laborites attack with love. When you listen to this it just makes you question these people intelligence as to how they’re even still alive today. I see hope though, there are some bright people who visit DNO on both sides DLP/UWP that talk/type very intelligently even if the grammar and spelling isn’t all that they know what’s going on and possess a high thinking capacity, that can piece together what going on like a puzzle and some of them.
just bad mind*
take dat!!!!! woieeeeeeeeee in your face Skerrit…hahahahahaha U must be delusional to actually think that you have the qualities of a leader. What kinda leader insults his people and tell them go to hell. Skerrit is just a likkle boy..very chidish and immature..its a shame.
Liars, cheaters must pay. We are ready to take back our country.
sir b realy ithought u were more open minded
but u have shown your true colours as one who is not as objected as our pm the best ever to grace dominica shores one mr pm was not addressing the nation it was answering the UWP THEY DID NOT WANT TO DISCLOSE
Are you serious? or just retarded?
there was no colors there only the truth
the opposition uwp is part of dominica ur retarded
What do you say to your kids when they use profanity to their friends. Oops they were not talking to me.
Smh
Have another drink and go back to sleep Jim!
Mister Alleyne gave a perfect respond to the question posed. The man was responding to the QUALITIES of a leader.jIM,whomever you are will and come again.
Fellow Dominicans,
The Sir Brian Allyene makes several good points however, I cannot completely blame Skeritt and DLP for what is happening and will happen to Dominica.
The truth is, Dominicans are to Blame for what is happening and about to happen to Dominica.
Its Sad to note that WHEN Skeritt and DLP win the Elections, it wouldn’t have been the Small minority of True, Patriotic son of the soil Dominicans with the Love to see Dominica rise and its people prosper, but it will be the majority of Dominicans who have been bribed, fooled, bullied, led to believe in the hand to mouth, and hand out syndrome mentality…
Fix my house, pay my rent, buy me a ride, give me some money, help pay my bills, I will vote based on what you promise me.
But Dominicans, what about after all is said and done?? what about the future, what about being a prosperous and peace full nation? what about being able to get all these things by hard work, toil, self help, self advancement??
Not a one time good thing, a red clinic here and there, and hand out ever 5 years??
What about the future of Dominica the place on earth that is our own and not Skeritt own (of which no law and constitution and tell him what to do)?
Our kids need Jobs, our professionals and our well educated and talented are leaving, our houses are being put on the market for sale, our bank accounts are hardly growing. Investors are hardly coming to our shores.
Skerrit and DLP have done nothing worth mentioning for Dominica in all this time. Just taking Dominicans on a Magic carpet ride of Lies and make belief and Dis honesty.
Every press conference is the Same talk, same story, same fiery tale every house of parliament is the same every news broadcast is the same …Can’t Dominicans see and hear???
Dominicans, it is time for change!! Real change
OK I agree with you we need a change but who do you recommend that I change this present Government for?
Certainly not this UWP rabble. When they were last in power, all they did was sell Domlec, dig up Windsor Park and leave it,left the Treasury high and dry without money. Where did it all go? When Pierre Charles took over, he had to be borrowing money from the other islands to pay his civil servants. Dominicans have a short memory. Wise up.
Fix my house, pay my rent, buy me a ride, give me some money, help pay my bills, I will vote based on what you promise me…..But Dominica is rich country if thy can do that for all the voters….do you all think before you guys write???
And then you all say it is poor
You are correct. We need to defend our country. We need to stand up, come forward and take positive action to take back our country. Change must come…
So right soo true. BUT the people need to be given avenues to get work, yes some are lazy but they need to be directed to the field which they can…
Mr. Allyne I agree 120%, but that is old news. Some people are to blind to see. His criteria tells it all. You know whats funny he have a bunch of ministers that do not meet his criteria in effect telling them only he is. What a shame.
That guy has psychological issues. We are so blind we cannot see. An obssesive compulsion disorder
The other Party does not have psychological issues? You are also blind.
This is a poor observation and argument. It is nothing new…
DNO you have to be very mindful as to what you consider to be low ratting. you allow some things to pass and others no,so this leaves me to belive…
There are ministers of government who have no qualifications at all. There are ministers of government, one in particular, who is so uncouth that I…
He asked you , You told him…right on target.
As Lennox keeps telling them..be careful what you ask for…you may just get it and cannot handle it.
But let Skerrit, Tony and others talk. The…
i am really ashamed of those so called leader. i had a foreign friend listening with me online to the labour convention and when mr ausitrie started speaking i just had to cut it off. so ashamed. why can’t they be civilized politicians
when Lennox called the President of Dominica, a man who has distinguished himself in the international arena (his accolades were coming not from any Dominica politician) as a “country Boukee from Grand Bay” I suppose you were a very proud Dominican.
Interestingly, Brian responded to PM Skerrit and found everything wrong with him as leader of Dominica. You missed the point of Sir Brina’s response. So shamed was Sir Brian that even when he saw every fault in pm Skerrit, did he say anything good about Lennox. Was Brian so ashamed that he could not even fathom seeing anything good about Lennox better than what he thought of PM Skerrit. But is Skerrit he was challengingand so he dealt with Skerrit. “Plis tar plis twiss”
Lennox did not challenge Sir Brian at the UWP Castle Bruce delegates conference so he was not obliged to comment but Skerrit with his loose tongue publicly said he wants to hear more specifically from Sir Brian – well he heard from Sir Brian where then Lennox or anybody else coming in that nuh. “ou, plis tar plis twiss
These people are embarrassing us at home and abroad. Come what may,they have to go.
Thank you very much Sir Brian. Now we wait with baited breath to see how the Dear Leader and his handlers process this information that he so arrogantly requested and which you so generously provided.
If I may, also, a Prime Minister should be a good personnel manager and have the will to fire tainted and delinquent ministers and stick to that decision and not succumb to pressure to rehire them like he did with the man from Newtown.
A Prime Minister should not treat the office like a Chieftaincy.
A Prime Minister should not be given to endemic cronyism.
A Prime Minister should not allow the blurring of the lines between his party and the government he leads.
A prime Minister should treat his female staffers with respect and dignity.
A Prime Minister should be coherent when speaking to his nationals.
Well, well . I can’t trust da people. No offence to the genuine ones. All of them saying u are ok mr alleyne, that’s right and so on.. But behind d wall is another thing. They saying pm need to go and then they going right back and vote d party.
In my little match box opinion a leader should be transparent and be respectful and you pm Skerrit you don’t.
The Prime Minister deserves respect from everyone. Those of us who were fortunate to be well-nurtured and with discipline, who also received it in the schools we attended and who have not failed to practice it are fully aware that it is imperative the Prime Minister (any one in authority) is to be respected. It appears that some people, even as adults, must still learn “discipline and respect” for others. This is the reason why many cannot get along with others and why relationships and marriages break up, putting it mildly as each one blames the other for this failure.
It is conspicuous that discipline, love and respect are lacking. This has been the downfall of some people and will be the downfall of others who fail to practice it. Also teach the children well.
Give the PM his dues which he is entitled to. This is respect for him and his position.
Each one of us have an obligation to fulfill to each other, whether near or far with no exception, no matter what the circumstances. You are not exempt.
You, too, do not respect him. No matter what, you are obligated to respect him and cease denegrading him on this Website, no doubt, on other Websites, in the newspapers and in the public domain.
Ask yourself: “What are my obligations and my part as a national, to Dominica and to other nationals whether they are in a higher position than me?”
Do not forget your Christian obligation, first to God, then to others both being one, practicing the same. Each one will be held accountable for their overall attitude to one another. No one will escape from it. None will be excused and exonerated.
Keep in mind the teaching of The Golden Rule by Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Lord has taught. He has commanded and He expects that each one will conduct themselves accordingly and appropriately and fulfill their Christian obligation to one another.
I cannot state that the Prime Minister of Dominica has been accorded this due right and dignity. He has not been receiving this type of treatment especially on this Website.
This, too, gets me angry about people like you who now have computers and can go on the Internet, on Websites and disrespect and insult others. You care not whom you direct your insults at.
The PM is no less than you. He is experienced and educated more than you do. You have not been fair to him and as the leader of Dominica and its nationals.
Labourites you have read all about it on this Website which has been allowed to go on and on and consistently so for months on end. Stand up for your PM and for his rights as you have been doing.
Therefore, my view is, the time has come that UWP and its supporters cease this type of criticisms, insults and attacks on the PM on this Website. Address the issue and stick to it.
I have evaluated your attitude based on what you have spewed out against the Prime Minister on this Website. He is no worse than anyone of you.
You, too, your overall attitude should project that of a respectable person, one of fairness, humility, love and respect. You expect it of him and you must also generate it to him and to others. I hope you will practice it to also your Prime Minister.
Also keep in mind God is watching us from above and taking note for our judgment and even a mini one (as I like to state) while still on earth and as we age.
Our God is an impartial God. He will reward us according to our actions in words and deeds. It appears to me that some people have forgotten that or just ignore it.
As St. Paul said: “Teach and remind people of these things.” For your mortal and spiritual benefit, you better think God and What Will Jesus Say (WWJS).
@Justice and Truth: Don’t you know that respect is something that is earned? You have to be respectful to others if you are to receive their respect. Do you remember these statements “It’s none of your damn business where labour party getting money, go to hell” and ” no law no constitution can prevent roosevelt skerrit from being nominated….” and the list goes on and on even to as recently as the past weekend when in the delegates conference of the labour party skerrit referred to Lennox Linton and Eddison James as “Bastards”. Now for an English graduate he of all people should know the definition of bastard because if he did his finger would be pointed right back at him.
I hope these labourites are listening eh, the truth about PM Skerrit goes in one ear and out the other with them, it hurts them. Careful who all you supporting… before all you bring about the destruction of D/A under Labour Powder cabal!!!!!!!!!!!!
You, too act accordingly toward him and others on this Website.
The truth of the Matter is Dominicans lack a lot of respect. They like mepuis, slander etc, gossip. You are talking to someone about litter and if they do not bring up one person name Honourable Roosevelt Skerrit, then they not ok. They always go out of context to show their hatred for one man in the Country.
It is high time that you people respect people in authority. Always politicizing everything.
Remember the Golden rule. Would you all like persons to slander, vilify, and character murder your family, sons and daughters when they become someone in public office? This Prime Minister or any other not going to be there forever. Your children or your children children/relative/friends can become such.
Would you like them to be treated the way you disrespect your leaders????????
But with all that talk de prime minister talking, all mr linton ask for is for him to come debate but he yet to give mr linton an answer. So for me all that talk de prime minister is just a waste of breath.
I am in no way suggesting that Mr. Linton is a crook or con man. If that insinuation is made, my apologies to Mr.Linton. But to the above comment. Do you know that some of the more successful con men are gifted with the talent of speech. They can talk and convince you that they are genuine. They talk their way, with fanciful language into your life only to rob you or take advantage of you. They can talk. They can spin. They can influence with speech. But that is all they have, the power of pursuasion and to talk smoothly. But behind their smooth talk is the absolute embodiment of evil. Take Shabba for example. How many of us can argue our point of view as intelligently and eloquentlyt as Shabba. I have seen Shabba hold police investigators and experienced lawyers at bay in the High Court. The judge commanded the witness (seasoned police Officers) to answer Shabba’s questions. But what and who is Shabba? A stinking criminal. I said this just to put the “ability to debate” question in some perspective. I do not beleive Mr.Linton is a criminal a la Shabba, even when I am prepared to say I will nevere suppport his politics. His smooth talk and eloquence is not an issue for me in the election. I find him to be too perfect. He posits himslef as the auhtority on ever subject matter and nvere told us that he was a victim of circumstance (bad temper) when he was thrown out of school.He took on the work of lawyers, accountants without the requisite qualification to question the work of professionals. He is too well schooled in every matter to be true. That is my beef.
I one breath the Antigua Labour Party was the most corrupt party in the world. Within 5 years, he was the chief spokesperson for the very same Antigua Labour representing them as a beacon of good management, truth and transparency. That is the hall mark of a good speaker.
Not the type of leader that our young people need to emulate for sure.
Pathetic! They should try to emulate instigators of hatred and demonstration???? Pathetic Pathetic. What kind of Leader are you? ()?
Skerrit is nothing but an ‘Accidental Prime Minister’. He was at the right place at the right time and has held on to power. He is not and has never been a leader……
I support you Mr. Alleyne. The PM actions should inspire people to dream more, learn more, do more and become more. But with the gutter politics that I stayed on my porch and listened too yesterday at Pointe Michel,this is not what a leader quality is about
Well done Brio, teach that mental case about leadership!
Are you, yourself not a mental case, crude, rude and disrespectful toward your PM?
you would swear the PM is the flippin pope wi, the MANNNNNNNNNNNN is there to do a JOB…which is to represent the PEOPLES interest….. we not living in the dark ages where we are barefoot and uneducated and so have no real valuable opinion on what concerns us collectively… Most of us are LEARNED and Informed….and we can contribute in the management of our own affairs… stupes…anywhere i see ur comment boss i not even going to read it i just going to thumb it down…because you seem to be posting from the psych ward…
Is so it good to expose him Sir Brian. Is so he challenged Linton to come into the political ring. Stop Hiding behind the cloak of journalism! Now morning, noon and night he is getting fever, cold sweat,vomiting and diarrhea.. No wonder people from all over the world see him easy prey, and handle him like a puppet.
I’m not from Dominica, I have no relatives from here, I can here on holiday about 2 years ago from Canada. I love the beauty of the country, how green and the simplicity of the land, I spent 3 weeks and had a lovely ‘holiday’. I said to myself I will be coming back to this country to live with my wife and raise my 2 children.
We have been living here for about six months now, but have decided to leave at the end of the year. We are leaving because of the government situation. What my wife and I think and feel is that the Labour Government kills the spirit of the land and most of the people on the island.
They don’t love the people and the country, they need the power. We have learned that alot of Dominican need some sort of power, but the government needs it to survive and in order for them to gain that power they fool the people of Dominica with material things, gossip, he say she say. The people feed on that. They love it.
The government has over powered the land.
It like kids on a playground.
Unbelievable, I have never witnessed anything like this.
If the people of Dominica wants to save this country they need to get this government out, and its not just the Prime Minister the the whole lot!
If this country elects this government again the lives of young people especially are in danger.
I now see why alot of Dominican are moving away from there own country.
Worst government in the Caribbean.
I will miss the nature aspect of it all, and a few friends I have made, but that about all…
Don’t come back.
I agree with you! A short and sweet response, to the point!
You know the saying, “With a friend like that we do not need an enemy.” Dominica does not need such a person, a visitor.
stupessssssss!!!!!! OHHH PLEASE
What is your point? You are free to do whatever you want! You chose to come to Dominica and you can choose to leave, but dont get involved in things that dont concern you! What do you know about Dominican politics, other than what you hear? Where were you in 1995-1999 when UWP as a government was victimizing people who didnt support them? Where were you when Edison James got vex with Eugenia Charles for $800? Dont come and talk about things you dont know. Go back to your Canada, please!
I don’t believe you are from Canada. Tell the truth
Since you are not a Dominican, never lived there, you do not have a voice. It is as visitors to other countries who never resided there, obviously did not pay tax and dictate to the government how to run its country. They should stay out of their affairs.
In the interest of Dominica and its nationals, I hope you never return. Stay where you are. You are not fair and are not an asset to Dominica. You have no love for this country. You are only curious about it. Your views do not count.
You know nothing about the leader of the opposition. For your information he is no leader, will not make a good leader, is no gentleman and not one of respect. He better not exalt at what was stated in this article, the subject matter.
So , what are you doingn Canada Justice & Truth? Don’t you vot there, draw your social security? You sound very un-christian for a God fearing person.
The more you talk, the more you should be away from this country. You certainly do not sound as a D/can.
Stop hiding behind the façade of Tourist. Who spreading more gossip than the other side. Who is instigating more hatred. Tourist you need to be more objective. Who calling for demonstration and demonstration. Who scandalizing who and the sad thing. It is only one man’s name on their life. Tourist regroup yourself and take a walk and be more objective in your analysis. Only 1 man they all hate. A son of the soil. Trying hard a man who loves the Elderly, women and students. Come on Tourist … Have a heart.
Your grammar and punctuation are just as poor as your thought and ethnically Dominican expression
your writing style doesn’t suggest that you are Canadian. nice try.
Sir Brian Allyne really? I expected an answer you have not answered yet? If education is so unimportant why have you educated your kids to the highest of levels? Shameful. I had so much respect for you. Gone now. I remember the days when only people in your class got to attend university. Now because many can education is unimportant shame
be a little clearer
Stupid ………….. to the highest level
Brian’s father was a lawyer and he was able to send his sons to England to study. Brian was fortunate. I call him “Brian” because I have known him since then. I know him more than I know the PM. I will still have respect for him as a person. When we meet, he has respect for me. Being a matured person, my respect for him will not go down the drain because I disapprove of what he stated. Yes! I am disappointed in his words. It is obvious that he is not a Labor supporter. So sad to know this. Someone of his caliber, DLP could do with him and he could serve that Party well. I cannot see him supporting the UWP under this leader. I hope Brian changes his mind.
Amen @heart,I see one word JEALOUSY.
Sir Brian Alleyne I’m ashamed of you. I respected you because you served in Dame Mary Eugenia Charle’s government, you are a proud catholic and a…
Sir Brian, I find your response to the prime Minister’s call is empty with all due respect, you only focus on the same issues which are public opinions about PM from those who are against him, no comparison on other leaders indicating if they meet the requirement such as Linton, Micheal or Lenard papy Baptist. Be objective and Maintain your name as “SIR”give a respectable reply.
Well Mr. Alleyne i don’t think it was fair to say that the pm has not demonstrated any qualities of a pm of Dominica. However, I believe one of the main qualities of a Dominican Prime minister should be the ability to lift people out of poverty
Brian Alleyne know hwonder Eugenia didnt see you fit to fit in h er shoes…you certainly did not have all the qualities you are claiming. You were passed over for Alleyen Carbon……
Brian Alleyne looking for President but a this president would be supporting crime of the highest degree in the land….No what I mean.
Who are begging more? Those who supporting the UWP. They so can beg that when they cry and they get the handouts, they come and brag about it. So persons should what they talking about before they make comments. I am not repeating what I hear, I am saying what I see. Those who try to see the PM are the same ones I hear lambasting and calling the PM Names and then they come and crowd up the Financial Centre to try to get hand outs. I have taken my 2 Coco yeux to see them. Now Sir Brian, you had all the qualities and the Dame passed you by. You are not giving an objective view.. You are repeating what you hear as well. You need to weigh everything and if the PM does wrong point out where but do not do like the others just saying things. I used to admire you but since you stop being moomoo, you join the band wagon of those who hate the PM. Sir Brian do you not know that you have to pray and respect authority. Would you like person to do to you as you are now doing to the PM? Let me say to you .. Massa day is done. Our Children attend school now not just a few like before. So anyone and I mean anyone of the “country bookies” from Capuchin to Scotts Head can be in one of the Highest Office of the Land.
A call to all arrogant persons who think that it is only them and their families who can be such… David a shepherd boy was the one chosen to be King. Jesse was taken aback because he had other son which he presented but never thought it would be David.
Let me tell you people, it is time to know who you are according to Sinach. Too many persons taking us for ride and short charging us.
I do not need any thumbs up. Go ahead but the truth is the truth
Tell me a uyou for real you dont believe the Island of D’ica is worth fighting for you so love your hand outs more than your people well all I say God help you.
Mr or Madam Namby.
Reread the comments again. Did I ever say that I love the handouts. Read three times, I never said I went for handouts. You did not even think that I work at the Financial Centre. I said I took my own coco yeux and saw the UWPites supporters crowding the Financial Centre to go see the PM.
It is high time that persons like yourself read and understand what is being said and not just say things just like all the rumours repeated against those in Leadership role.
Time to respect persons. And if you don’t understand, let someone read for you and explain.
@ hey, I am glad that u hit the nail on its head.When he entered the TEMPLE they were GAMBLING,what did he say and do? YOU ALL KW THE STORY, JESUS…
Stupes. Why don’t you ask your PM to prove what he said in Point Michel about Eddison James receiving a call at 11PM or traveling to St Kitts when…
We will see who begging come election time
I am a UWP supporter I did not go to the PM last election, however he came to my home begging for my vote so that Collin would win in the valley, I have to say without the rum and money given to us in the valley for which I sold my sold there was no way in hell Collin would beat Mr Charles, this coming election I am not selling my vote to Collin, with that said I received nine thousand dollars from Skerrit
Skerrit I am not for sale any more, you need to go, and to Collin since you won the election, you change, I am waiting for you, you said that you don’t like coming to TR because you have to spend too much money on man giving them rum, boss you started the rum thing last election, now whenever you come TR you hiding we waiting for you, no more rum, rum is not good for my liver
Obviously, Mr. Roosevelt Skerrit does not comprehend our Constitution. He continues to demonstrate that over and over again. This time, he’s asking for views on the eligibility requirements for the post of Prime Minister in modern day Dominica. How laughable that sounds?
Doesn’t he know that according to the constitution there’s no difference with Dominica 1978 and Dominica 2013? I’m convinced that the gentleman has lost it, and needs some serious help.
Please get help when you read the constitution. I beg you please Sir.
This is for you Mr, Nac Vibes
Once I Greeted Mr, Linton in Roseau and he does not know me, but he was very cold and I felt bad
I met the PM on…
I listened to the presentations of the speakers at Pointe Michel on Sunday, and concluded. (1)The guest speaker from Barbados I believe, was not briefed about the situation in Dominica, the disposition of the government and its ministers, and the quality of the leadership and the ministers. I guess they thought he was just one of them, but I found when he spoke, many things he said, he said under the assumption that the government was an honest and caring government. He was under the assumption that this government was in the mould of the Barbados government. He thought this was a serious government focused on trying to uplift its people. He was definitely not in tuned with what is going on in Dominica and the quality or lack thereof of the men he was campaigning alongside. He was just campaigning for Labor, not for the men on stage with him, because his message was a reproach to them.
Additionally, when the other speakers spoke, one parable was the theme of their speeches; KANAWEE KA DIRE SHODIERE BON DA LE NOIRE.
The saying, in case you obviously have never heard it and for the first time from me, “As many heads there are it is as many opinions there will be.” Always keep this in mind. This goes for you. Some of you are too negative, fault-finders, always searching for flaws which do not exist. Try listening to speakers intently and you will comprehend what is being stated.
If you state that the PM did nothing good for Dominica and nationals, those who especially are in need of, you have told a blatant lie as you and his enemies. God will punish all of you for that.
Yes Justice and Truth they do not listen or read intelligently. Always interpreting in their own way and saying untruths or what they hear others say and they cannot prove anything. I cannot comprehend why those persons are so disrespectful and like so much gossip. As I said, they always finding faults with everything.
Persons who always looking for all faults will never be satisfied. For example they want bins in town. Now there are some small bins infront of various business places and you see them with your own eyes littering the place. A young lady cursed when I pointed out to her that she was littering when there was a green bin just 1 foot away from her. Those negative persons. Lord have mercy.
I like that sir , skerro labour party made the people of st.joe poor by giving them hand-down , he is making them more lazy that is crazy we need to vote him out.
You believe this foolishness? What have you done to enhance the life of anyone in Dominica and even yours? Some of you make unfounded statements. What do you expect UWP to do for them and something concrete/worthwhile? It would be interesting to know.
When you criticize the PM ensure that the opposition is without flaws and will never have flaws. Labourites are hearing, listening and reading. They are taking note.
Brian Alleyne can define leadership and the requirements of a leader. But to recall history, so could Ms Charles. She absolutely knew that Brian Alleyne did not have what it took to be leader of the then mighty Freedom Party and Prime Minister of Dominica. Leaders are humans who can have human emotions. Even Christ had moments of righteous indignation. Even being so pious, he Brian Alleyne did not fit the bill. Ms Charles knew better!
And where is the Freedom Party now? Ms Charles passed the leadership baton Allyne Carbon and what happened?
IF she had passed it on to Sir Brian, I am sure the Freedom Party would be alive and well today.
So I am not sure what you are talking about.
But you forget your history man. Brian Alleyne WAS elected leader of the Dominica Freedom Party. He took the party into the 1995 General Elections and the party lost. Then he resigned and accepted a position at the West Indies Supreme Court. Alleyne Carbon was never leader of the Dominica Freedom Party.
Dear Ben Dover,
Sir Brian was elected leader of the Freedom Party though Dame Eugenia’s first choice was the late Hon Alleyne Carbon. He abandoned the Freedom Party and left to become a judge in St.Vincent.
kawat Roseau
We are just giving likes and dislikes without knowing the facts. The late Alleyne Carbon was never leader of the Freedom party.
I what world are you? Brian Alleyne killed the Freedom Party! He was the leader of the party dispite Ms Charles objection and the party died! Check your facts, whoever you are! If Freedomites had listened to Ms Charles, Freedom would still be around! Some people just talk without checking their facts! SMDH
Since you cannot foresee and predict the future, who knows?
I cannot recall anyone accusing Sir Brian of dishonesty, and of stealing and cheating.
I cannot recall anyone accusing Sir Brian of being insultive to the people that he served or being arrogant. Can you?
SKERRIT LACKS THE BASIC QUALITIES OF A LEADER. TAKE IT TO THE BANK!
HE SHOULD BE DISCARDED!
Oh yea? What about the issue with GON Emanuel? Remember when Mr Emanuel was magistrate? Remember why he was removed? Ask Brian Alleyne! I m sure he can remember!
And Lennox is better, eh? So much for you. The PM was not ordered by a judge to pay an exorbitant sum of money ($50,000) to anyone for defamation of character/libel.
well he had no time for that, he only passed by once every five years,,,,,,,,,no lie morne georgine I come out!
you are so correct, ACCUSATION,ACCUSATION,ACCUSATION,all coming from Lennox Linton, he has so often been called to provide the evidence up to this…
Please, understand that Roosevelt Skerrit threw out a direct challenge to Sir Brian Alleyne, to which he responded. Harking back to the Freedom Party, of which incidentally Roosevelt Skerrit was a member, is totally irrelevant in this context and only serves as a distraction to the debate at hand.
What’s yur point!
A you so stupid your PM ask Mr.Alleyne for his defination of what is expect of a PM now you have the nerve to attack him how dear you, get your stupid comments in a bottle and let it flow thru the river by the bridge because that’s where you should be washing off your ignorance.
namby you are very insultive person. You misread and all you do is give mepuis and spew hatred. Now you are insulting someone by telling the person that their opinion should be placed in a bottle. I have read your opinion and you have not contributed anything to the forum except hatred but I will not insult you and tell you to put your comment somewhere. Go regroup yourself and put in intelligent comments.
so are you saying everything that miss charles did was right, she could never pass on leadership to brian because she could not controll him, look…
hahahaha… you must be joking…. you shooting yourself in the foot right there!!!! does our current leader have “human” emotions when he speaks…
Hahahahahaha scary must a vex with him self
for saying this. I know he wants to take it back,but too scary hahahahaha lolololol wosh all u killing me ok no more laughing.
I am laughing loud at those hidden due to low comment rating. Allu doh see or hear nothing yet. We are coming in from the cold!
Well, Mr. Skerrit asked for it and he got it! I could not have put it more eloquently myself, even if I tried.
In your face,Skerro. Well said Hon. Alleyne, integrity and honesty are foreign to this administration and this Prime minister. Those guys prefer to thrive on ignorance and dayy-baa. They thrive best in the gutter stuff, I mean one can just listen to the member for the cottage contsituency,the senior ministaaaa, shame, shame, shame….
Dear Change,
Lets be honest…..the PM did not tell ‘Dominicans’ to go to hell as Sir Brian and many others have claimed. His sentence began as follows……Tell Lennox Linton it is not his…..etc. He was responding to Lennox who had been relentless in his questioning of the source of the Labour Party’s campaign funds on his radio programme. I am surprised that Sir Brian repeated this in his statement.
Stop finding excuses for the PM bad ways. Wrong is wrong whoever does it.
True and they have blown this up and make a mountain out of it. It was the New Leader of the UWP he was answering. But they like to remove certain facts and make a lie out of this. Strange that a learned man like Brian would repeat this.
And you know what have me, is how he will come out and attack Sir Brian for giving his honest opinion when he skerrit specifically asked for it. I waiting to hear him rant and rave….lol…lol
Mr.Alleyne did you ever give Dominican an explanation why Eugenia choose Alleyne Carbon over you.Hon.Roosevelt skerrit is the best prime minister dominica ever have he the best ever.
Francis Chicago… All this hating is taking us no where. Why hate a son of the soil like this even to slander him so. God bless this young man. Those persons not encouraging young persons to serve their country with all those things that is happening. No right thinking Dominican would like their son or daughter to be subjected to such harsh treatment. Come on Brio why why. When he asked you, he did it with an open mind but you saw it as a time to castigate. Honorable Roosevelt Skerrit is one of the best PM DA has seen. Are you still bitter that you were not afforded this? Keep being the person you should be. Who knows your time might come again. We never can tell. But be true to yourself.
ONthelookout have said said it all.
Those of us who have lived long enough, are realistic and appreciate what is good, will endorse what you stated. Dominica has progressed very well under the leadership of the PM, more so than under any PM. I do believe this is what is eating their hearts out. Hatred and envy are two deadly sins.
And maybe you should think before you speak.
If you are saying that Eugenia chose Mr Carbon over Mr Alleyne because she thought Carbon was better, then I put it to you, that she did not have her party or country at heart when she made her decision, rather she was of the same mind as you, vindictiveness. After all, what did her choice do with her blessing, ruined a once great party. Wheel and come again.
You need to go back to history then you can talk to me for now shortup.
Yeah sit your behind in Chicago and say what’s best for us. IS WHO IN THE FRING PAN FEELING THE HEAT!
@lady,I aint feeling no heat with you nuh because I aint in no “fring” pan
Mr alleyne talking about the current situation in the country has nothing to do with his life in freedom party. Can u not read? He is talking about the qualities of the current prime minister. U all need to read and comprehend , when people talk and stop acting ignorant. If someone tell u go to the market and bring a banana. Would u bring an apple? What are u implying ? That mr alleyne does not have the qualities of leadership. Did u ever think of it, that he may have refused the position. The reality is, mr alleyne is giving his views on the way that the pm is communicating with his people. First of all i never knew the pm told his fellow dominicans ” that is not their damn business and go to hell” if it is true well i am soooo much embarassed . This is more than embarassment. My people we are on the world wide web. What does that say about us? Shame shame…
What qualities Eugenia had to be Prime Minister? What qualities Brian have to be President? The People done disqualify him from being Prime Minister…
Mis Charles chose Carbon so that she could still rule the party even if she was not the leader. many people are intimidated by the intelligence of others and that was the case with Mis Charles. It is because of Mis Charles we are in this mess we are with incompetent government. A wind of change i can feel it.
maybe that is a question best directed at MAMMO herself or her advisers, if one is snubbed its hard to expect them to know exactly why. but in the scheme of things that is not important, the man is simply giving his opinion which seem to be a popular one among the masses.
Well go ask Eugenia yourself nuh??
Don’t you see how much respect Skerrit has for Sir Brian that he asks for his opinion. He is looking up to the man. So he better accept the answer he was given.
I bet you not in Dominica.Chicago
francis chagigo or what ever your name may be you are hungry and poor illertarte stupid i a proud uwp
Go back to school to learn to spell.
Here we go with those who hate and they are so rude and say they support the UWP. rasta vibes did you have to call the man hungry and “poor illertarte stupid”. I think you need to get back to school so you will learn to spell and also get some etiquette. This brings me back to CHS, there was a teacher who used to teach etiquette.
Probably we need to bring this subject back into our schools from preschool level. We are heading into a destructive practice aided and abetted by some wanna be leaders. Teaching their followers to have no respect for authority but It will turn on them when their turn comes. Please take note persons because when you show this disrectfulness openly, then your children will emulate and the first casualty will be yourself. Take note and turn away from disrespecting others especially authority.
functional idiot!!
Go to hell that’s where you belong.
All them Labourite operatives start to redine what a debate is .They finding all kind of reasons why Skeritt should not face Lennox Linton face to face.
chicken!
woiiiiii!!!!!but y allu want the man to face Lennox face to face nuh.lol
Is time that Dominica wake up from that ‘deep sleep’ called Skerrit.
Tit for tat.
It is time that they open their eyes to the opposition and what they are up to. 
you tell your own people TO GO TO HELL, you tell your fellow dominicans NONE OF YOU DAM BUSINESS WHERE I GET MY MONEY FROM,you call a former leader of this great country a BASTARD.Mr Skerrit,these qualitys will serve the person well, if he was applying for the job of a school bully
Oh Roosevelt! Roosevelt! you looking like you taking a dip. Stop following those opportunists who are taking advantage of you for power. What is wrong with you?
In January 2000 you were a shy little boy who was ending up in hospital during the campaign and hiding every time there was a meeting in your constituency. You remember Pierro coming to Thibaud and you were no where to be seen.
You walked out of Cabinet with a big stupes on how many occassions, you went to Barbados and started negotiations with the Chinese unknowing to Pierro.
You instigated the St. Joseph Labour Party uprising. Now you want to define what a Prime Minister should be. According to the constitution any Dominican who is not a religious minister or not in prison or not certified Mad, can be Prime Minister. If you want to change that you have 18 to 3 you can change it. But if you try that the discarding of Alix Boyd Knight would be child’s play compared to what you’ll get.
One thing I can tell you, Lennox Linton is not Earl, Ron, Edison or Spaggs.
You see how you trembling? Come and talk between He and You for you to BAYGAYYE. Man you are in power for almost 15 years and you bring down a multitude to talk all that crap.
I’m sorry, I once supported you but sadly, your days are numbered because with your vision Dominica will sink.
Whoosh been look it…. But you are absolutely correct
Thanks for reminding us about Skerrit’s early days. He was indeed shy and reserve and had very little. Before he became Prime Minister, he was not known in the Caribbean region. He remains unknown in the wider international community. He undermined Pierre Charles by rebelling in the Cabinet and negotiating with the PRC without the authority and knowledge of Prime Minister Pierre Charles. An act of treason! He was rude towards the leader of the government as you have reminded us. And Skerrit wants to tell us who is of prime ministerial quality and who is not. Serrit, wheel and come again.
Thank you so very much Sir Brain. Respect and Love.
You did not prove me wrong. I expected that sort of response.
The pm in trouble n he has started making hiself look foolish …sadly he seems to somehow be in denial ot that fact.. the people however have is begining to recognize that this is the pm true qualifications.
Very well said Sir Brian Skeritt is no example to our young people who want to enter politics. With all his degree he has gutter type leadership.Lennox will show him qualities of a good leader.
Lennox we are behind you 100% Dominicans deserve respect.
Skerrit could be referred to as Dominica’s modern day Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. While speaking to Dominicans at a Delegate Conference, he told us a Prime Minister must be competent, experienced, trained, visionary, must inspire people, must be respected regionally and internationally. He drinks some water, he changes and he tells us Mr. Linton is an errand boy, he is a novice and some European Colonizer is prepared to spend approximately $3 million to fund the UWP election bid. However, they had no interest in Mr. James, they needed a younger and vibrant person, subsequently, Mr. Lennox Linton was chosen instead of Mr. Claudius Sanford who has a University education. I believe, the man needs psychiatrist help.
but you forget one part he drinks water again and then continues referring to Mr. James and Mr. Linton as “those bastards went to St. Kitts…..”
what a thing contradicting all what he said about the kind of leader Dominica needs now – I am in agreement he needs help!! very convinced.
Well said Sir Brian!!
Mr. Skerrit’s reference to qualifications of a Prime Minister was an attempt to talk about Lennox’s qualifications and his insistence on wanting to hear from Sir Brian was a veiled attempt to mepuisez the Learned Judge because Sir Brian does not possess a University law degree (LLB).
But Sir Brian’s intelligent answer shows how far behind Skerrit is from learned and intelligent leaders like Sir Brian and Lennox.
You asked for a response and the one you received could not be more appropriate. Let’s see if you will embarass yourself like this again.
mr. skerrit asked for your opinion sir out of respect for you but you responded like someone with a chip on his shoulder. where is your unbiased professionalism sir? couldn’t you at least mention one quality he has as prime minister? grind your axe sir and in so doing you have lost some respect.
Yes even keel. One has to be objective when commenting. Grinding axes causes some of us to lose our integrity and respect! True say!
Hog wash.
he was very unbiased, if he was biased he would have kiss Skerrit *** and praise him to high heaven, which would be very deceitful since he deserves NO praise
Really! What qualities and experience did Skerrit have when he hijacked the leadership of the DLP. Now that he has some work experience, he thinks that’s all. No my friend, he grossly lacks in the qualities he talks about like integrity, honesty etc. Any blind man can see where he is heading to. Self praise will not do the trick. And by the way, I forgot about the qualities of a Dictator. Think for a moment, he is beating his chest, I I I and I alone. Dominica was never willed to him. Well said Sir Brian. Wish the puppet masters would say it like it is.
Skerrit is nothing but an ‘Accidental Prime Minister’. He was at the right place at the right time and has held on to power. He is not and has never been a leader……
Well Jill for PM! Dominicans Jill for PM! You won’t be an Accidental PM. Way papa all you have hatred and jealousy spewing from inside of you all!
Sir,is it because Skerrit did not nominate you as President your response seem to be so vague?Same old BS of Lennoxx and the rest of the UWP supporters you spewing.
Vague?. go check the meaning. Maybe you will be ONE WORKD SMARTER!
Maybe you should revisit a dictionary for the definition of vague.
you sure you not dead
No where in the PM speech has he made reference to the quality for a Prime Minister as being some with INTEGRITY AND HONESTY!
As these words don’t exist in his vocabulary.
What a SHAME!
If you don’t have these quality it translate into what make the people poor and hungry….which is the level the majority of our population is today.
Sorry Brio, you will never be President of Dominica…Alas
He didn’t say he wanted to be president.
you don’t know that
Did he say he wanted to be?
You can’t be too sure about that, there’s a wind of change that’s blowing and you will soon see what it brings along with it
lennox is aman wit a plan in his hand
And YOU know that? if you have no relevant comments to make under this topic there is always “DEAR BELLA” go and find something to do. The man was…
i think he should have not been so cocky and just stuck to the facts. sensitive times ppl…these guys (both blue and red) need to be most humble and begin to act and not talk.
Mr skerrit should realize Dominicans fed up of his gutter politics and lack of vision its not working. Hang it up, call it the day!! like what any honorable leader would do. great response by sir Brian u asked for media to comment they did “calling for a debate” lets here what the churches and private sector has to say.
change will come
Well said MR Brian. He ask for it and he got it just like that.
I have always said that I left the Labour Party after the stooges in the Labour Party gave the mantle of leadership to Skerrit,after Pierro died. I supported him a minister of education, but his arrogance was such that I never saw him as being more than an ordinary minister. HE SIMPLY DOES NOT HAVE THE QUALITIES. Today I have seen that I was dead wrong.HIGHLY VINDICATED!
It’s only in Dominica a PRIME MINISTER CAN INSULT THE PEOPLE IN THE MANNER THAT SKERRIT HAS UNLEASHED IT ON DOMINICANS, AND STILL BE IN OFFICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pierro would not do it, Roosie would not, Mike would not and the others likewise.
Arrognat,lazy and incompetent Skerrit will tell the people ” Go to Hell! Go To Hell! Go To Hell”… IT’S NOT NONE OF YOUR DAM BUSINESS! MAN TO MAN WE WILL MARSH THEM UP! YOU CANNOT BUY A GALLON OF PAINT TO PAINT YOUR HOTEL! THIS COUNTRY IS TOO FREE! and others….REAL GUTTER INSULTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was one of those who held your hands Skerrit and took you into politics, you were living at Madrelle then, (Hope you know who i am),and I will be one of those to work hard to REMOVE YOU through the ballot. You don’t cut it, AND I AM NOT A LABOUR PARTY ZEALOT. I AM AN OBJECTIVE DOMINICAN.
Don’t worry the electorate will soon DISCARD THIS LAZY WICKED EVIL REGIME led by Skerrit posing as a government
On the quality of HONESTY AND INTEGRITY, my answer is “””WAY PAPA”””! 0%……!
So it’s not by accident that this man has turned the country into a failed state. His handlers have observed his weaknesses and have taken full advantage of his obvious weaknesses.He is even unable to deliver a proper speech if it is not written by a handler.
SHAME ON THES LABOUR PARTY LED BY SKERRIT!
DISCARD THEM
DISCARD THEM
DISCARD THEM
FROM CAPTAIN TO COOK
THEY ARE A BUNCH OF NO GOODS
UNFIT LEADERS!
Let me tell you who you are…one of those greedy so called labourites that thought the PM was a little boy you all could spin around but when you all realize that this little boy from Vieille Case will not be a pawn in the hands of people like you and so many disgruntled so called supporters you all turned blue and even blue vex too….take that and run with it
you lie you never labour
Sir Brian that is the same low blow. Attaching the man’s character. Every one has faults including you Sir so he who have no sin cast the first stone.
We all can remember the Social Security building that was sold to a local company, The full scholarship given to a sibling just to name a few. By the when did Skerrit started to display those Characteristics. You could not have been lobbying him for anything or post.
Well said mr alleyne cause I see none of those qualities in my prime minister
AMEN !
All those with no sins let them cast the first stone. Maybe so Brian Alleyne., But a Prime Minister is also human and get have an off day. No one is perfect.
NO SWEETY!! no no no no….a Leader don’t take off days. Its a job requirement that u be on a pedestal indefinitely. sooo if it is that our Leader…
Skerrit forget that when he became prime minister no one knew him. He was a school teacher who became a minister in a popular die hard seat. So what is this talk of novice? Barack Obama was a novice, Eugenia Charles was a novice, Ronald Regan was novice (an actor at that) and served very well. So please save that gabbage for all the blind mice that support you.
Prime Ministers have to show Respect, Discipline and Patience at all times…..you give no respect you do not get respect….
It does not exclude you even though you are not a politician.
So Sir Alleyne u should also tell that to mamo when she was PM
Wash yur mouth..
maybe he did, that could explain why he was overlooked for leader
Mamo never asked for it!!
i am shocked that the PM used the word “experienced” given that at age 31 when he became the youngest PM in our region, he had none.
You are not smart. People were not born with experience. Everyone had no experience. It is attained on the job. Consider his terms in office. He has learned a lot. This goes for others who may be in office as PM that long. Experience is a good teacher. Learn from that.
Mr Alleyne you forgot “no law no constitution can stop me Roosvelt Skerrit”
what about the fire bombing investigation that they interfere in?
what about documents that were sent to ipo and so concerning the payments made on behalf of the p.m
what about the long lines people form from 6 a.m to go beg the red clinic
what about the wedding he never invite his people
what about the fact that he still believe that ABK is the best person for president
what about calling people bastards
what about paying passage for all kinda people who away for years to come vote
what about not wanting to clean up the voters list
what about the fertilizer bobol
You sound like a broken record which continue to play over and over again with all its cracks and croaks which bore others.
Sir, Brian you are dam right this PM need to Check a Doctor for help be for its to late . Sir , Brian please come back in politics to lead Dominica forward
Be careful what you ask for, Be careful what you wish for! hahahahahahaha
Yes Sir Brian tell him like it is.
Sir Brian Alleyne you could have not said it better than that . You are true patriot, tell him how it is’ you are a Dominican especially when he said, “Is not none of our dam business where he get money” . You are in Dominica to us the law FREE OF CHARGE.
as if he would win….. stupes
We know he won’t win. He has a speech defect, and he would insult Linton in the middle of the debate. HE NEEDS HELP! Linton would treat him like a little boy.
You wanted the views of Sir Brian Alleyne , well you got it. What a witty answer. Garcon, Skerro, do not play with the judge! He is competent, experienced, trained, and visionary
Good for you Sir Brian. He asked so you gave him the truth without sugar coating.
But by the way….. Skerrit did not advise his comrade Hugo before his passing against having a bus driver to be his successor? One who seems to be working on setting a record for most gaffs by a leader in public office…. Hmmm
Brian Alleyne know hwonder Eugenia didnt see you fit to fit in h er shoes…you certainly did not have all the qualities you are claiming. You were passed over for Alleyen Carbon……
Brian Alleyne looking for President but a this president would be supporting crime of the highest degree in the land….No what I mean.
Check your backyard Brian alleyne…..
aw shoot. you beat me to it. I was just about to say that this bit of insight from the Sir sounds like that of mamo, no wonder she chose Alleyne C. and not B. Alleyne. she got the name right.
he gave his opinion skerrit asked for, you fool
mamo passed him over for Alleyen Carbon because she could control him, she could not control Sir Brain, don’t join the one they tie in the savannah and give them load to carry!!!
his background has nothing to do with his opinion. As a Dominican i believe i have all right to say we are a backwards society.
You are generalizing. Not everyone in this society is backward. Therefore, do not judge everyone. some are more educated and intelligent than…
yah clearly lets be real, you would know.. He was actually acting Prime Minister when she was out of state soo get your facts.
This is a very foolish and coward statement by you.Remember the manner in which Miss Charles led the Freedom Party, is was done in a dictatorial way. It was all about her and no one else,please take a good look at Eugenia leadership style and this present Prime Minister style no difference.
Also if he had vision the people of Dominica would have been in better Economic Situation.
I just want you to know where there is a lack of vision the people perish.This present Government has no vision to grow the country.
Finally it takes a man with vision to develop himself that’s Sir Brian Allyne.
kindly ask the former judge what about the old building from social security?
kindly ask the former judge what about the old building from social security? do not talk about honesty and integrity.
Let’s be real. If you have testinal fortitude firstly state your REAL name. Just because SIR Brian Alleyne does not imbibe the venom sprewed by Mr. Skerrit and his rouge government you want to discredit him. I know Mr. Alleyne in a personal and professional setting and I will tell you one thing about him he is not a man who is easily swayed and he calls it out as he sees it and for your information Dame Mary Eugenia Charles did not favor him for this simple reason deceased Alleyne Carbon was preferred over him. Get your FACTS straight before you sprew venom like your leader Roosevelt Skerrit. Mr. Alleyne is impartial and it’s unfortunate that you would say otherwise.
Judith, you surely meant “testical” fortitude!Thanks anyway.
did you get a cut from the sale of the building?
And tell me, how great Alleyne made the Freedom party. He took it from how many seats in Parliament to to how many?, none did I hear you say?, oh what a great choice he was.
Your retort is of an angry man who is lost in his anger, that of a child who has lost his toy.
May god bless u u need it.
Like Leader so will his followers be…….Angry disgruntled little children!! the political game is too big for you all. Hon PM asked for the Sir’s…
And leaders should not call their political oponents “bastard”. Those are words for the rum shop. So Skerrit has no leadership skills. By the way, of all the speakers who spoke yesterday, none refered to Skerrit as Honorable Skerrit. The refered to him as Skerrit and Roosevelt skerrit. Is that because they know he is not Honorable?
Very Good observation!!
is not him, its the office
and Linton don’t call people names. That all you people do. Look at yourself before saying things about another. You guys the BIGEST MA LOOK there is.
Lennox Linton was born of Parents in wedlock so calling him that is erroneous!
Mr. Skeritt on the other hand the same cannot be said!
We are in an upside down world !
Kanawee a ka dee chaudier la bondai nweh!
Sir Brien as a jurist you forgot to mention one expectaion of a Prime Minister and that is the interpretation of the constitution and the manner in which this Honourable Prime Minister bypass the constitution to make important constitutional oppointments, all these are clear before our very eyes, never in the administration of this country a president is before the courts for the manner in which he was appointed, where is the decency that has to be visible in the governance of our beloved country??
Totally Agree
Mr. Skeritt made the appointment of the President seem so important when Mr. Williams was chosen . Now that He discarded His nominee He and His operatives are saying the Presidency is largely ceremonial and Mr Astaphan is saying the President cant cause Dominicans to lose their rights
Whey Papa
Lennox frequently plays the calypso that goes “careful what you ask for, careful what you wish for” Well skerrit you ask for it from Sir Brian and you got it. YOU ARE NOT A LEADER. Quoting skerrit re a leader “He must demonstrate the capacity to inspire people, unite this country on national issues and motivate us all to do what is right including sacrifices when necessary in the interest of Dominica,” Well if we are to take your word skerrit then Sir Brian is even more correct,YOU ARE NOT A LEADER. The prime minister also said the candidate should be known and respected regionally and internationally, must be held in high esteem by colleague prime ministers. My question to skerrit then is why is it that you use to duck attending Caricom meetings? Wikeleaks reported that you were like a fish out of water among your Caricom colleagues.
you are a fish out of water among your caricom colleagues ? are you for real? you people must stop spreading rubbish and WHO say so Wikeleaks ? oh boy, there is not one, yes I said there is not none of his caricom colleagues will attest to that rubbish you are spreading show me evidence on that Ma Look.
@Tell it like it is: Can you deny the fact that he use to duck Caricom meetings? Do you even remember he use to send charles savarin and others to represent him? As usual you blinded red supporters never will and even if you do you will conveniently and shamelessly deny it. I guess you will never remember the wikileaks report too since your mind probably can’t think back. Well here is homework for you. EXERCISE YOUR BRAIN AND GO DO YOUR RESEARCH to educate yourself because the information is out there
Well Mr. Alleyne i don’t think it was fair to say that the pm has not demonstrated any qualities of a pm of Dominica. However, I believe one of the main qualities of a Dominican Prime minister should be the ability to lift people out of poverty. A quality the pm has deliberately allowed to elude him. His strategy of keeping the people poor by giving hand me downs is working for him.
Sir Brian, I find your response to the prime Minister’s call is empty with all due respect, you only focus on the same issues which are public opinions about PM from those who are against him, no comparison on other leaders indicating if they meet the requirement such as Linton, Micheal or Lenard papy Baptist. Be objective and Maintain your name as “SIR”give a respectable reply.
talk to skerrit about respect
you didnt read the question the PM asked, if you did you wouldnt of commented.. Try again
You head is empty like a —–. What do you expect!
What as***** you talking? Brian Alleyne is a Dominican living on island so he quite aware of what happens. He knows all the evils of skerritt so pull ur *** with that nonsense.
Sir Brian was NOT asked for his opinion of other persons
Superk what a very objective comment but they will thumbs you down because nowadays everyone thriving on gossip and slander. That is what our people like and gossip and slander develops hatred. Not many are objective but is like everyone spreading the bad they hear. Since we are all sinners not perfect, persons not even looking for even if is a fraction of good things you may have done but that is ok. For reward is not of this world. So one has to do what one has to do and do not expect anything in return. The Lord is the ultimate Judge not man!
What are you talking about?, None of the other persons whose name you mentioned above asked Sir Brian the question, it was you prince so he answered him, why should he mention anyone else.
In any case his answered were for who ever wanted to be in public service.
I think Sir Brian Alleyne is right on the money.
I support you Mr. Alleyne. The PM actions should inspire people to dream more, learn more, do more and become more. But with the gutter politics that I stayed on my porch and listened too yesterday at Pointe Michel,this is not what a leader quality is about
Mr Brian is abdolutely correct . Compares to prime ministers and other heads of state etc, skerritt has no respect for Dominica and the Dominican people. Instead he displays favoritism. In my opinion he should not be prime minister
Well said Sir Brian
skerrit is still a kid needs to grow up,and the poor handouts that support him,bunch of beggere and a fool like peter that picks up after him.
MA LOOK go get work to do
Well Skerit… you asked for it. lol
absolutely love that comeback.
take that. in ur face!
Well laborites checking is not them he talking to when he said mind your damn business, because they know they sot and ain’t asking no questions, so they cool with it.
Hahaha just give them d money and they cast their vote.
What money, $20 and a few plywood
man you need to get a life!
yah skerrit need to get a life
I can’t understand Labourites. You ask for the man’s opinion and when he gives it, you telling him to get a life. You can walk down the street and tell a Labourite… Always begging you for something. You all should get a life or make papa skerrit give you one.
Don’t you see what precedes his name? SIR. Do you know what that means? Do you know what it takes to get one of those? You are the one who needs to get a life.
Ebeh Skerrit, you asked to hear from Sir Brian Alleyne? Well he gave it to you.
If I might add Sir Brian gave it to him nice and proper
This is for you Mr, Nac Vibes
I met the PM on many occasions at his office in Roseau where he told me he likes what I am doing with a big smile,…
I like that
