The United Workers Party (UWP) is expected to meet visiting and returning Dominicans at the Public Service Union Hall on Tuesday from 10:00 am
This follows the recent overseas visits, where Team Dominica met with Dominicans in Washington, New York, New Jersey, Miami, Atlanta, and Huston in the US, as well as Dominicans in Paris and London.
“The United Workers Party Team Dominica is very interested in the matters affecting all our Dominicans overseas, as well as our returnees,” MP for Roseau Central, Norris Prevost, said. “We therefore invite visiting Dominicans and returned Dominicans of all Political and religious views to attend this very important meeting.”
According to Prevost, “UWP Team Dominica recognizes the tremendous contribution our people abroad are making to their families here at home, and to Dominica’s development as a whole. We also recognizes that our Dominicans living overseas and returnees as well, have their own concerns that UWP Team Dominica, as the incoming Government must understand, and commit ourselves to address.”
He said the meeting will be a ‘two-way conversation.’
“The format of this UWP Team Dominica meeting with visiting Dominicans and returnees will be a two-way conversation between Team Dominica and our visiting and returned Dominicans,” he noted. “We will not just come and talk to our visiting Dominicans, and don’t allow them to ask us questions. The leaders of the UWP Team Dominica will update visitors and answer questions on the plans and policies it intends to implement in Government. Team Dominica will share with them, some of the important actions they and us together, as Dominicans who love our Country, can take to strengthen and protect our Democracy and our freedoms, and help rescue our Dominica”.
Expected to be present at the meeting will be Political leader of UWP, Lennox Linton; Leader of the Parliamentary Opposition, Hector John; former Prime Minister of Dominica and MP for Marigot, Edison James; former Minister of Tourism and MP for Roseau Central, Norris Prevost; former Minister of Education, Ron. Green; Danny Lugay, UWP candidate for Roseau North; Ronnie Isidore, UWP candidate for Mahaut; Senator Ezekiel Bazil, President of UWP and candidate for Wesley; former Senator Claudius Sanford, Deputy Political Leader and UWP candidate for Kalinago Territory; Urban Baron, former DLP Member of Parliament and now UWP candidate for Petite Savanne, and other UWP Team Dominica candidates.
Some comments take forever to get posted or are not posted at all.
imagine that Dominican said during the last election it doh have an opposition all those fellars doing is going after skerrit, they should come and tell us what they can do to make domninica better, now the opposition have capable men and can outline a clear message of hope Dominicans saying de opposition not do what they should do by putting pressure on skerrit for the children hospital…
how can you please a people who get on like they are illiterate.
I say fellars lets work to win the election and then we start to make them payback inback HARD LABAR..
WHO HAVE VILLAS, APARTMENT, AND MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE,
WHO BUILDING MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE CASH IN THE VALLEY
WHO BUYING LAND AND BUILDING HOUSING IN TOUCARRI… MUST PAY
but where Hector Sprags John na in all this I thought he is the “LEADER” of something wiii in the party.
Well at least these men got the opportunity to travel , and they did not have to pay for it , would live to know how many dominicans live in Paris?
I am happy and impressed with the manner in which UWP Team Dominica has presented themselves to Dominica and demonstrated that Dominica comes first and are prepared to served this beautiful island with dignity, honesty and transparency. NO BOBOL.
I trust our visiting Dominicans will listen and learn and understand and support the task ahead.
Dominica needs decency in our governance and it is time for change..
CHANGE IS A MUST…TEAM DOMINICA
Team Dominica ? ha ha ha
Dr Fountain has already said he is willing to make public his “PRIVATE” banking records so rather than trying to score cheap political points while seeming to be concerned about honesty and accountability is a red herring which betrays you as a dishonest person.
Had you also called for skerrit to reveal his bank accounts you might just sound believable.
You are even accused of unrelates crimes.
He can’t and he will not under any circumstance or he might present statements that raises as many questions as the DAAS statements. An audit is not out of the question.
The issue of Fontaine transfering funds from the DAAS acct to his personal acct has nothing to do with Skeritt. One can request that Skeritt make his financial information available, if he does he will only give the information that was submitted to the IPO information which the UWP based on public utterances is not satisfied with. So Mr. Fontaine has been given an opportunity to come clean on the DAAS issue by making public his finances, if he has spoken the truth and has nothing to hide he should do better than Skeritt and make public his true statement of accounts.
Honesty is tha best policy. Taking something that was’nt yours is no mistake, once, twice three times your have sticky hands a person like this should not be trusted.
Tell that to skerrit.
@tin That’s exactly why i do not support this corrupt Labour Party. But it’s just a matter of time.
LOVE YOU ALL FONTAINE AND COMPANY IN TEAM DOMINICA.
@tin, give Fontaine a break, he was just guilty of and error in judgement
@YOU LIE, just continue your love affair with Fontaine and company,you will soon realize the error of your ways. 
Me and all my London crew will be there.
See you soon Puss
This Yankee fan will will be there to listen to new plans to push Dominica forward.
Team Dominica.
yankee my foot.go push your three four jobs in the US to make ends meet.
Jealous are you? You sure come across that way.
We have a dedicated team of intellectuals who are capable of repairing the damages inflicted on us by the Laborrats. The RED CLINIC will be the first to go because it an infectious Government dependency that deprives people of the opportunity to be financially independent.
Intellectuals including Urban Baron????
Dedicated team of intellectuals , what about a dedicated team of honest humble individuals who are I nterested in improving the lives of people in Dominica.
To all you scared negro’s in Dominica,it is time you remove the vail from out your eyes.You have only your self to blame,looking up to so call leaders.I see great leadership in Mr. Linton and the rest of the party.The true leader is a different sort;he seek’s effective activity which has a truly beneficial purpose.He inspires others to follow in his wake and holding aloof the torch of wisdom,leads the way for society to realize it’s genuinely great aspirations..Peace.
Now we know that transparency, good governance and accountability was meant to fool Dominicans. A good leader leads by example. Linton needs to follow the advice he has been trying to give to the PM. Uwp supporters keep burying your head in the sand.
GOOD MOVE…..I IN DAT! I support any party that is ready and willing to democratically get rid of this evil, wicked, develish regime lead by Skerrit.
FONTAINE ALL THE WAY.
Another strategic move by the UWP…We lead and the others follow….Change is a Must, Not an Option!!!
I hope you all show Dominicans from the diaspora that you all are finally willing to lead by example. Start the change you all want for Dominica with yourselves. I am speaking about good governance, accountability and transparency. Do the right thing with the Thomson Fontaine case. We Dominicans are waiting and watching.
@Anonymous Which we Dominicans? ARE YOU MAD LIKE SKERRIT? You should have said i as a Skerrit lazy lapdog am waiting. You seem to be taking Skerrits demise more deeply than anyone else. Were you one of the GREEDIES taking from the needy? I will talk to Fontaine and the eloquent Linton to give you a job.
Meeting visiting Dominicans around independence and carnival is nothing new both government and opposition is involved in this practice.
ther was the time that iwould completly not listen to pollitics but since this team has taken it to the next LEVEL!! i am back on. this is the next (level) with all my respect keep on my brothers i willbe there to support this change is a must.
@Anonymous I share your sentiments. I had already given up on Dominica. but with Linton in the ring with team, i am prepared to get back into the struggle. I LOVE THIS TEAM.
Dear DNO,
Thanks for bringing this News item.
However, you forgot to mention the time.
The meeting starts at 10.00am in the morning of this Tuesday 25th, and the address of the Public Service Union hallo, is Valley Rd, just opposite the Botanic Gardens gate.
Team Dominica looks forward to welcoming all visiting and returned Dominicans of all political and religious views.
Hon. Norris Prevost
Is there an ‘a.m’ in the evening?
works i will be there dressed in blue.. look out..i’m coming
DNO, last time I checked Claudius Sanford is still a Senator, not a former one
WAY TO GO TEAM DOMINICA!! Now these are inspirational leaders!
I applaud your effective leadership. You are able to articulate a shared vision in a way that inspires not only a chosen few but all Dominicans.
Thank you
I’m still trying to see the effective leadership you talk about. Your team cannot show basic leadership by taking care of a simple matter which concerns accountability and transparency which are the qualities you all claim you were promoting in your political campaign. I’m talking about the Thomson Fontaine affair. It it plain to see by all that some form of wrongdoing was committed. Be advised, it can only get worse as new information continues to surface.
It is not that they are my team….IT IS THAT I FEEL INCLUDED IN THE PROCESS!!
@Anonymous. For the past 13 years the Dominican public have been asking for transparency from your Laborrats leadership but to no avail. Let me remind you of some of the words your leader used when asked for transparency: It’s none of your damn business: Go to hell: No law no constitution can prevent me from doing as i please. Sounds familiar?
Dr. Fontaine has clearly offered to release all his bank records providing that your incompetent leader accepts his challenge to debate the issues. If you want to see the Bank records, tell your Dimples to come and show us how inept he is.
@fact
So what are you saying? You all don’t have to be transparent because the DLP are not. I believe that was you all’s claim that is why you all chose to run on a platform of good governance, accountability and transparency. Now is time for you all to practice what you preach.
After all, you all are not even in government yet and already you all are failing to execute a basic function. What can we expect if you all get into government? We need to see you all lead by example.
Keep braying, someone might listen.
By the way we are still waiting for an affirmative
the your god skerrit will present his bank accounts to the nation. Just saying as you are on the subject of accountability.
You heard of Thompson’s coruption but you never heard of all the coruption Skirret is involved in? why dont you question Skirret on these matters.please answer us ANONYMOUS
@ Nac vibes
If you stop responding then I might believe you are not listening.
You all are not doing Thomson Fontaine any favors. The more you all resist and bury your heads in the sand. The more Thomson gets exposed. He might be exposed to criminal prosecution. You all might want to think about that.
Great leadership Linton. Keep it up.
