They are back at it again.
This time the United Workers Party (UWP) is targeting the Dominican diaspora living in the Northern Caribbean.
Members of the party are set to leave Dominica on Monday for a meeting with Dominicans living in Gaudeloupe on Tuesday.
“We are on our way to Guadeloupe … that is the opening part of the Caribbean tour,” Dr. Thompson Fontaine told Dominica News Online on Monday morning. “The meeting with Dominicans is tomorrow (Tuesday) … so we will engage the Dominicans in Guadeloupe tomorrow night (Tuesday) at 7 o’clock at Baie Mahaul (part of the capital). We will also be meeting with some investors that have some interest in doing business in Dominica tomorrow (Tuesday) morning.”
The team includes Fontaine, political leader Lennox Linton, deputy political leader Claudius Sanford, candidate for Castle Bruce Isaac Baptist, opposition leader Hector John, and Laplaine candidate Ron Green.
They leave on L’espress des Isles at 3:00 pm and will return on Wednesday.
“Then we come back to Dominica and leave on Friday 25th for St. Croix and return on the 30th,” Fontaine explained. “We will do St. Croix, St. Thomas, British Virgin Islands, St. Maarteen and Antigua.”
He stated that many of the islands to be visited are population centers where many Dominicans live.
“We think it is important for us to reach out and to meet Dominicans living in the diaspora to inform them of their rights with regards to voting, and to inform them of the legal process,” Fontaine said.
He stated that the UWP is aware that many people in the diaspora voted in the last general election without full knowledge of the election laws.
“So we are looking to make clear what the laws state with regards to elections, with regards to persons spending time outside Dominica and their eligibility to vote,” he noted.
He also pointed out that the tour is paid for by the UWP’S campaign funds.
Recently the UWP visited the United States of America and Europe in attempts “to educate and engage” Dominicans living there.
Here are the facts:
UWP will win 8 seats at the next election cycle.
There is no way they will win La Plaine because on the ground Ron is MIA. Thomson will lose Grandfond if he continues to neglect his ground work. Castle Bruce is a big Maybe.. They should have encourage Giselle to run and have Urban bring his support to her…..Central Roseau is gone.
For all those who think there isn’t truth in this, go on the ground. That’s where it begins and ends.
Even the horses in the race will admit that.
Wat is MIA? More Involved & Active? Because Ron has never left the “ground”, continues active in organizing sports, & lives in de community unlike others I know. Where do u live?
At it and always at it, eh? Keep this traveling up. You may miss the election. People I know are voting DLP and so would I if I resided in D/ca.
Obviously you do not reside in Dominica…so you don not understand what we are going through. That is why Team Dominica has to carry the message abroad to people like you…
But, lets be real people . This is the dry season in the Caribbean. Kaweem we call it and those fellas still think they in North America man. They flashing still in WINTER COATS> Lord have mercy on all of us supports of the loosing UWP team. Much too cold on your side of the universe. Will and come again guys. Have no work to do. I’m at home flat out with the CHICKUNGUNIA VIRUS. Guada have it too. We do not have room for more.
When you do come to Dominica make sure you first visit Griffin Benjamin. He has what you need. You are a two-fold loose cannon.
UWP i want to know which of the eight seats you gonna win? Remember Roseau Central is gone already..So already u are one behind..’nine to win now’. AND in the nine you must win these are.. COLIHAUT ,MAHAUT, PORTSMOUTH ,PAIX BOUCHE ,COTTAGE, VIELLECASE, SOUFRIERE, GRANDBAY , PETITE SAVANNE. ROSEAU CENTRAL ,ROSEAU SOUTH….so Workers i’m sorry just build your party for the election after this one….i think DLP will lose some seats but not eight.
Fast N Furious I think it is CHIKUNGUNYA. And can you please write comments that make sense? You just sound like one of the followers who just get fooled by the propaganda on kairi fm.
zor ka tour encore ! eh beh enjoyyyyy
@UWP, You said the voters will judge the UWP? Well I can say that I am a voter who has only voted DLP from 1990-2009. However, I am sorry to say that I have judged this new and disguised version of the DLP and whenever elections are called, I will reject them because they have rejected DOMINICA. Concerning the UWP, I falsely accused them, judged them, rejected them and hated them in the name of partisan politics. This I deeply regret, and on behalf of my family I ask DOMINICA to forgive me for the pain and hardship I caused them by supporting a failed DLP that does not care a thing about our beautiful people and nation.
Well, whether you vote for them or not, it is a judgement call you will have to make.
By the way stop with that nonsense about asking for forgiveness. You back to playing the same politics. Every five years you have a right to choose who you thing is best suited to run the country. Dominica rejected UWP three consecutive times. This wasn’t a mistake and untill we can acknowledge that fact, UWP is going no where.
@UWP, I did not vote them for none of the three terms and as I look back, I can tell it was a serious mistake which resulted in the deaths of two of our well loved PM’s while in office, which led to a national whip and hurricane called Skerrit and the elevation of the most DLP hated and betrayed freedomite as president. Those three terms were very costly for Dominica and for this I ask for your forgiveness.
So are u saying that the country has not improved. what more can you get from a country that cant sustain its own economy. This country thrieves on donations and contributions from other country. So low and uneducated.
all these islands Dominicans living in and we have nerve to complain about Haitians?? Really???
Budman, makes you wonder why our people left Dominica in the first place. If it is because the place too hard, then Haiti must be hell because their people coming here and I don’t see any Dominican going to live in that country. Pray God we don’t end up like Haiti with mad rulers living in palaces while their people starving.
So if Dominica is so BAD why is the Haitians doing so great ? ……………………. Farming, Food Vendors, Bus owners & Driver, Bars, BEST Barber shops, Construction Labour & Skilled worker, Security Guard, Security Companies ………… get ready for that one EMPLOYMENT AGENCY …….. YES !! Did they come over here with the JOBS ?
Well we have money papa….bring me on the next one eh.
And they are taking it to buy ‘their’ own travel tickets…
Why are they touring the world? Ain’t it Dominica they are “running for elections”???
No wonder the place is so infected with Chick Un Gunia!
Wonder what’s gonna be next? OMG…
@FASTN FURIOUS, I wonder if the chick UN Gunia you referring to was not imported from Morocow or from one of the many secret trips the PM taking? By the way is he in Dominica now?
@Not Me Alone Well My friend i am sorry to have thought that you were DC. I do agree with you fully On the issue of “Between You and Me”. I have already expressed on this medium that this was the Most Dynamic and most listened to Radio Programme in Dominica, and the Caribbean. It even had a very good international appeal. WOW THIS WAS GREAT STUFF!!!!! BY A GREAT LOCAL MAN! During my days as a Labourite, i could remember labour stalwarts saying to labourites that they should not listen to this programme. Being the type of person that i am,I LAUGHED AND DEFIED THEM. I decided to listen to it one Saturday. On this Saturday Professor Linton gave his audience a comprehensive rundown of who ‘The Villas ” belong to. E-mails after E-mails after E-Mails were read in a chronological order, and i was nore than highly impressed. I kept on listening RELIGIOUSLY every Saturday from then on, until i became one of the most regular listeners to this programme. I liked Lintons command of the english language, he sounds more honest that many of the greedies in the Labour party, and I JUST LOVE THE MAN.
On the issue of Francis, Fontaine and others making more use of Q95 i agree with you fully, AND I HOPE THAT THE PARTY’S HEIRARCHY IS READING THESE BLOGGS.
It is indeed sad that this country is so badly BRUISED, BEATEN AND BROKEN by a gang of greedies who have reduced the majority of the population to beggars. SHAME ON THEM INDEED!
HOW LONG?
NOT LONG!
I voting for Monel Williams in St.Joe come next election. You all should bring a female politicain.
The people who give Team Dominica so much hard time I wonder if they live in Dominica.? Because everyday I hear my people crying for jobs and help.
How can you all in your good minds allow DLP to continue to make my people suffer?
This well selected Team Dominica is the best we have seen in many years to improve the lives of all Dominicans , so give them that chance to do so.
Every day I hear Dominica being praised by international organizations like the ECCB, IMF and world Bank for doing the best among other Caribbean countries during these hard economic times while some of our sister islands in the caribbean like Barbados, Grenada, Antigua and St Lucia continue to decline yet people like you have the nerve to come on dno and talk trash about Dominica. You must be one of the desperate ones who are trying to get into power at all costs or one of their acolytes.
Have you visited any of those islands lately to see their level of progress?…You people just swallow everything you are told without asking questions or doing your own investigation.
UWP is no better. Earl Williams where is he today. Julius where is he today. Really
U mean the same Julius that Skerrit accused of corruption and you mean the same Earl that Skerrit went on his knees for him to join DLP? Ha!
Ask the Haitians where the JOBS are cause they seems to be doing a great job getting and finding work ask the one who is building the BIG HOUSE not to far from, that is in Mahuat how is he doing it. Ask the ones with the BEST BARBER SHOPS, ask the ones doing the FARMING all over the Island, ask the FOOD VENDORS in Roseau & Portsmouth MARKET, ask the SKILL LABORERS in the construction industry, ask the HAIR SALONS, ask the BARS, ask the SECURITY GURADS.
I was in da this year, and I so want UWP to win for my people to go international in every way. The infrastructure has a lot of room for improvement. The DLP has no intentions of moving Dominica forward.
So UWP certainly has my vote this time.
I doubt you actually believe what you saying.
They are looking for campaign money.
To the people who think that their money would be better spent campaigning in DA, you have a point. However. don’t forget that a number of constituencies were lost due to the influence of the diaspora. Therefore this move may be a good one.
All the best to you all guys. Change is around the corner. Enough of Skerrit’s Labar Party
the change has begun. Skerrit is transforming Dominica. Every one who has come to Dominica over the past 5 years are very impressed with what they see happening
all of all u that saying labour will loose the election,all u still cannot tell me what seats labour loosing
Last time they went they brought back..CHICK UN GUNIA..
Wonder what they will bring back this time?
Man, if that is your idea of a joke it is sick. I pity you.
But@Fastnfurious, we all know those guys were in the USA and Great Britain and we never heard of anyone from the USA or England having CHICK UN GUNIA so it could not be brought down by the UWP. That’s the good thing about UWP they usually tell us when and where they going to so if needs be, we can always trace them. On the other hand, the name Chickubgunia sounds like a name associated with the Middle East or Bangladesh. Since our PM never tells us when and where he going and is always on a secret trip I am wondering if he is not the one guilty of bringing chickubgunia in his briefcase.
When are u guys coming to Antigua waiting patiently for u guys good effort great team
April 29
Are they aware of the fact that there are many Dominicans in Anguilla as well . It’s very easy to hop across from St. Maarten so I hope they put us on the list.
DNO can you please change that picture? You mean they going Guada and the rest in these coats? Tell them it hot as hells, no snow down here.
What can I say, but do as you like and by your works you shall be judge. They way you run/conduct your campaign will show what leadership qualities that you have and how you intend to run our beautiful Dominica. Remember, you will be judge by we the voters.
@UWP Well i have judged them already, AND they have my vote FOR SURE, and that of three addiditional members of my family. GIVEN LIFE, THIS IS A CERTAINTY.
Well thats good, making use of your democratic rights. There are thousands of Dominicans to vote and who will also exercise their democratic rights. They may not choose as you did.
Its funny that those guys never wanted the diasporas to come down to vote and after leave us in our misery. So why all the force of goin all over the world to educate and ask them to come back to vote, after all they will still leave us in our misery .It doesn’t matter who win the election
my friend the misery you call on your self and the rest people like you will live with you all your days of your life get up and work for want you want and start thinking for your self then you will see how the next life can b for you and your family
Perhaps you are overlooking one thing. Our people overseas are more numerous than those at home and are a potential source of investment capital. I suspect that many Dominicans overseas would invest back home if the economic climate were to improve and create the right incentives. It is not just about direct votes but also the influence that can be brought to bear on voters in Dominica, who depend on assistance from family and friends overseas.
Because you do not understand what they are doing. I can see you are not a listener of Q95, when you listen to the other radio stations you end up in the situation you are now. They are going to the diaspora to say what they have always been saying, which is “IT IS OK TO COME DOWN TO YOUR COUNTRY TO VOTE BUT VOTE ACCORDING TO THE CONSTITUTION” the people never once said do not come down to vote and leave us in misery, we Dominicans on the ground are the ones who are saying that. Right now all kinds of names are appearing on the voters list, Haitians who just enter the country are on the list, names of person who are in the diaspora and is overseas for more than 5 years are being registered. For example, I saw a name on the list, of a child who just turned 18 in January because she was born on the same day with my son, but have not been in the country within 5 years. Her aunt is the one registering persons and she is on the list. So God knows how many others are doing that. This is wrong!!!.
because they know that once you carry a Dominica passport that gives you the right to vote in any ellection ln dominica it is your right the only thing is that you cant go up as a candidate onless you been leaving in the country for 6 months ok so thy know why because I came down and voted for the in 2005
but never again
Hope they bring their bathing trunks, and sun–Tan Lotion? to enjoy the Caribbean waters. “SMFH” Man Elections cost lots of$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ why waste the little you all have traveling to Educate the people”. We know the Laws as regards to voting. The way things are going the date for the next elections will be announced during one of those trips. Mark my words”! Enough said.
Go on the trip. This is a super good idea. Let’s get the greedies out of office.
I know UWPites will give me thumbs down but as a person who will be voting UWP come next election, I don’t like their winning strategy. On Vision to move Dominica forward, I give them A+. On quality of candidates I also give them A+. But on winning strategy I give them C-. now is not time to waste time and money travelling. It’s time to use plenty time and resources in Dominica, particularly in constituencies where they have a good chance of winning. They should leave the Caribbean for Q95, since most Dominicans residing abroad listen to Q95 than those leaving in Dominica. In fact Lennox needs to go back or spend more time on “Between you and me” which was once upon a time a very powerful 4 hour class and has now been reduced to 2 hrs with a host that is not as effective as Lennox.
It was “Between You and me” that made lennox popular to the point where he was able to resurrect a UWP party that was not too appealing. So Lennox needs to make use of that a little both on Saturdays and Sundays to educate those leaving abroad, while they spend more time and resources in constituencies like Wesley, Salybia, Grand Fond, Castle Bruce, Laplane, Roseau Valley, Roseau central, Roseau North, Roseau South, St. Joseph, along with Marigot and Salsbury. I feel they have a good chance in Colihault and Soufriere. The election is theirs to lose and they just need to come up with a winning strategy to cement it for all Dominicans.
@Not Me Alone So you are the same person as DC?
UWP knows exactly what to do. Go to your bed and sleep, you are sounding tired. Stop stressing yourself, we in the UWP NEED YOUR VOTE. They (UWP) would have been in power already HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE OVERSEAS VOTERS! So it is a dam good thing that they are doing.
The elections is DLP’s own to win.
check we off when it comes dominican living abroad listening to q95..only people who love roro,gossip,lies and hate for our prime minister listen to Q95
@possie in usa Y ou sound like one of the desperate Labourites. Were you one of those posting 18-3, 18-3. 18-3? Can you please tell the world where has this gone to? Dominicans have decided that evil reulers shall not rule their land.
thats right we dont have tme for roro we just want to know that our famaly is ok in da and when the uwp is trying to take your right from us you all think we want to listen to the uwp please get real
@possi in usa, Is people like you that killed possi and Dominica and you run to the usa?. No wonder Skerrit gave birth to his son in the usa, just as his lead attorney who bought his mansion in the US as well and spends most of his time there too. I will not kill and run like all you because I cannot run.
@% My vote for UWP is sure this year God’s willing. I am just missing the Lennox Linton Version of “between you and me.” Please understand that I was a freedomite all my life until 2000, 2005 and 2009 when I voted DLP. It was the truth and education I got from teacher Lennox every Saturday evening that drew me to UWP. Do I miss him? You bet!. I am not saying he should resign from UWP to continue the program. I am simply saying that he should spend more time hosting that program and that UWP should make more use of Q95 to reach those of us residing outside. I think we need to hear people like Dr. Fontane, Joshua Francis, Isaac more often. As far as being like DC, you have grately offended me because that DC person is just a…you know.
@Not Me Alone Well My friend i am sorry to have thought that you were DC. On the issue of “Between You and Me”, i have already expressed on this medium that this was the Most Dynamic and most listened to Radio Programme in Dominica from its discovery. During my days as a Labourite, i could remember labour stalwarts saying to labourites that they should not listen to this programme. Being the type of person that i am, i decided to listen to it one Saturday. On this Saturday Professor Linton gave his audience a comprehensive rundown of who ‘The Villas ” belong to.

On the issue of Francis, Fontaine and others making more use of Q95 i agree with you fully, AND I HOPE THAT THEY ARE READING THESE BLOGGS.
It is indeed sad that this country is so badly led by a gang of greedies who have reduced the majority of the population to beggars. SHAME ON THEM INDEED!
HOW LONG?
NOT LONG!
Welcome to Guadeloupe team Dominica,at the end of the day those of us in gwada will be more informed about the pressing issues affecting Dominica.Son temps pour le changement,le changement est un must pas une option.
You rely on the UWP to “inform” you about what is happening in Dominica? Lol! You eh serious.
Because DLP PRO Philbert Aaron said on the public record that UWP under the leadership of Lennox Linton believes in the politics of truth, he went on to say that truth has no place in politics. That is why we rely on the factual and unchallenged information about the state of the economy put out by the UWP. Skerrit and the DLP have been trapped lying so many times on Q95 that we have lost count. So we can understand the reason for the deep ignorance of those who don’t make it their duty to listen to Q95. I pity you.
But DNO Guada doh have snow. why you have dem fellas in picture with big winter coat nah.I do not like this i really dont.
Hmm I Like this No.. I really like this.This is what campaigning suppose to be like. Now labor can go all dreamy and rainbow
The more i read of this brilliant team of men/women, the more i am impressed. This is building on the highly successful tour of the USA AND EUROPE, which had Skerrit and his acolytes going loco. Make sure you all inform them of the corruption, extremely high levels of unemployment, the number of beggars Skerrit has created on island, the squandering of the country’s resources, the insultive nature of Skerrit and the poverty which has visited thousands of Dominica.
GOOD MOVE GUYS, AND I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST.!!!!
The more nails you all drill in Skerrit’s political coffin the better!
HOW LONG?
NOT L;ONG!
From what i’m hearing the USA tour did not sway many voters.
Did you hear that from your Mama?
And dno posted that yet they playing politics and not posting other posts that are no where as bad. Wouldn’t it be nice dno if you could stop playing party politics?
DC You are sooo right, why not use these resources at home where the voters are to be won? instead of going to people who according to u w p cannot vote, well this looks like the world upside down, these guys are out of touch with reality, therefore cannot and are not ready to lead the country, although i don,t agree with the Labour party and might not vote them but u w p are just not ready yet maybe in 2018 general election
think again befor u talk u dont live in DA how much box of
educate who/what?? st marten have carnival so they have good excuse to travel….what-a fing
If this isn’t foresight and effective solid organization, I don’t know what this is. Dominicans should encourage country development by voting back the United Worker’s Party.
I am one that will vote them in for sure. Dr Fontaine ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!
YEAH BABY! WORKERSSSSSSS FORRRRRR SUREEEEEEEEEE
Keep dreaming and wishing!
I never see people more desperate.
like your PM and his rest school boys right after 14 years don’t you think he want help to take him to the doors
landslide victory for uwp in possie. hahahahahahahahaahaha
The UWP JOKERS out again looking, to see where they can fool smart people that know their rights to VOTE IN DOMINICA? Did the jokers say ‘ educating Dominicans abroad?’ Men get your facts right, and don’t insult DominicanS by your statement. All you went to America it was on all talk show then to England as quiet as a lamb now all you get voice again to talk about Caribbean tour I will hear about all you. MAN LABOUR ALL THE WAY. WE LOVE OUR PRIME MINISTER.
so mr or madam citizen for change,who tell u skerrit leaving?where is he going? well get ready to accept the fact that he will be staying for another five years.if u are so sure that he is leaving tell me the eight seats he will be loosing at the next election.and by the way include roseau central as another one in the bag so just say he has 19 seats now.i am waiting for your answer
@LON You lie. He will be staying for another 50 years. HE WILLL NEVER EVER LIVE OFFICE. Y ou obviously thought all Dominicans were lazy and paro like you.
I can tell you that he lost Wesley Woodfordhill Yuri oh can take that to the bank
I hope after election lenox an his crew get work to do..I feel so bad to see how grown men hav there selves,an day want people to vote dem ,,how u can tink uwp hav a chance in dat election..uwp can an will never get more than five seats.I try to wonder wat uwp do to turn skeritt supporters around I cant see yet,138 new jobs a month for d next 5 yrs,,wat kinda nonesence dat,,
@me dat I can tell you UWP will have a lot of work to do, in order to repair the mess in which they will find this country. But because of their brilliance, i still believe that they will do a good job at it. OH HOW I LOVE THIS UWP PARTY, AND TEAM DOMINICA. Skerrit is getting heart attack, poor pity, but i do not feel sorry for you Skerro. Your arrogance and insult have come back to haunt you. TAKE WHAT YOU GET. YOU SLLEEP ACCORDING TO HOW YOU MAKE YOUR BED.
I agree with you, they need to find work to do. But you know what? They will, because it is a huge job to turn the economy of Dominica around and bring back sanity to this country. So fear no more, change is a must.
After elections, Linton will accuse the DLP of stealing the victory and he and his team will spend the first 3 of their next 5 years in opposition stirring up daybah, fighting in court, boycotting, spewing venom on everyone and everything remotely linked to the DLP…Wait awhile, it seems that we already have been receiving all this from them. Sigh!
After elections, nothing much would have changed.
And according to Philbert Aaron since Lennox believe in truth, the only way DLP can win elections in Dominica is how they did it for the past 2 election, by stealing. Skerrit has never won elections in Dominica. Ask Tony Astaphan about that. You don’t listen to Q95 so you will definitely not understand what I am talking about. DLP is making you live a lie. You need to wake up for your own good. Show me that you are not afraid of truth, listen to Q95. You can only honestly criticize Q95 after you have listened to them for yourself, not listening to what other people tell you about Q95. Listen for youself so that you can come to an honest conclusion. Stop making others think for you.
This is a good contiuation of what UWP started last year. I wil suport you guys all the way because I want to see Dominica and its people in better living standard.
On the so-called Animal Show on Saturday, Tony told the Dominica Labor Party Supporters, there are two reasons why the UWP wanted Skeritt to call the Election so badly. First, they were burnt out with all the travelling and bankrupted of new ideas. Second, they had no more campaign funds. Once again, Mr. Linton has caught the jokers napping. Remember, the famous declaration, “I am a novice in politics,” today them fellers cannot find a solution to Linton’s wizardry. Remember the famous words of Skeritt,” why doesn’t he leave the radio microphone and enter the political ring,” today, guest who is asking him to go back to his radio program.
Typo: guess
well well well I wounder what is their interpretation of the law because last election I came down to vote for them but I think I can never do that againe they are just hungry for power but I dont think dominican are so dum to vote out a gorvernment that is woking
ill love to know where in d/a that you call Miami do you know by now some d/a people are not Dom.in.cans like some of you you need to say where you a in d/a don’t put Miami I know of lots of Dom.in.cans that live in Miami that don’t work and praying for the PM to send ticket so that can come and see familys
You damn lie
The St. Croix meeting will take place at the Jam Time Sports Bar, near Mountain Gas Station at 7:00 pm. There is a level of publicity taking place. We welcome your visit to St. Croix
@Marcellin Lockhart give me a break they are not welcome in st.croix we are waiting to boo at them
Santa Cruz belong to you? Don’t you see how civilized campaigns are in the VI ? Take a page from that and stop the caveman thinking,let it remain where it belongs, in a heap of rubbish.
Next stop is Rock City and Tola, you want to come boo there also?
I hope Thompson explaine his honest mistake.
There is so much unemploy in St. Croix is worst than Dominica.
Marcellin you did not win in Paix Bouche what help can you give them in St. Croix . St. Croix is catching hell do your homework.
I hope that UWP with all their business men will start with the investors they meeting right now even while they in opposition and doh do like Fontaine who is waiting when he wins to begin planting things for the essential oils he talking about. Then I can say yes 5000 jobs in 3 years.
Oh, oh I see Skerrit office panicking again and Charlie Jong’s team of phantom bloggers at work again. That is so pityful.
My question is – Why visit these places for potentials votes when the UWP party are against the diaspora taking part in general elections?
Is this just a mere double standard.
Go listen to Q95 to get educated. You are missing out on information.
Well, I would really like to know how Thomson Fontaine acquired DAAS’ land.
BIG JOKE
What can UWP teach or educate diaspora about, their voting rights? UWP should be the last on earth to talk to overseas people about that. after the 2009 election this very UWP took these diaspora people to court and lost. They are the ones that should be taught about the diaspora’s right to vote. Oh Ye hypocrites….
Who are the people they need to educate aint it the people in teh constituencies in Da nah?
Recently, Tony said the alleged $1 million, UWP Team Dominica had received from the Polisario Front were all used up, that is why Mr. Linton and the UWP Dominica A team were pressing for General Election. According to an Ambassador, ” them fellers can lie.”
What a waste, they taking veep.
@fam But at the same time you seem to be getting HEART ATTACK, HYPERTENSION AND DIARRHOEA.
How Long?
Not Long!
five more years.
DNO: “He also pointed out that the tour is paid for by the UWP’S campaign funds.”
Well, this is a goldmine of a declaration. In this one sentence, we have so much information. Thanks, DNO. Stay tuned!!
It is none of your darm business where we get our funds from.
@Roy Williams,……….We know where the money is coming from. You joined the new uwp team in their campaign promoting transparency ,like you they do not practice what they preach. Would you like me to print how ASC the biggest company in Dominica went under, who squeezed it dry.
The same attitude is observed in the DAAS with landgate , annual rafflegate and DAASgate. That is how they finance their campaign. There is more according to word on the street. You seem a very good fit for that company. You knew how to finance your vree lifestyle.
Dominicans are finding out that those new uwp teamers are . They are idle but can produce 10, 000 jobs, BUT cannot produce ONE for themselves. Talk about corruption. There are 3 type of lies. (1) LIES , ( 2) dam lies ,and (3)whatever you and the new uwp team say.
Dominicans are beginning to see through this smoke screen of the uwp false alligations and double talk that passes for a political campaign.
@False Bogoroy And at the same time it is none of your dam business where it is coming from either. According to Skerrit “Go To Hell”, “Go To Hell”, “Go To Hell”.
thought you guys were claiming to be different from Skerrit, more transparent?
Where they getting the money to travel so nah? I wonder which of the accounts, We the People????? Which one???
Why didn’t you ask Skerrit where he took the money to build the Villas in Savanne Paille?
@Patriotic Dominican I LIKE THAT ANSWER.
Same question i was going to ask! Good answer
‘Them Fellas just like to waste time.. Gonna education people about the election laws..Really!! That must be a joke!’
Is that jealousy or envy? You decide !!!
Copy catter kill a rater. Thats all I have to say.
Workers have a very good team, a very good vision to rebuild Dominica but a very poor strategy in winning the next election. I feel they need to place more emphasis on winning in constituencies they stand a very good chance of winning and then do what they need to do later to cement the win. They need to make sure that they take back Wesley, Salybia, Castlebruce, Grandfond, Laplaine, Roseau North, Roseau Valley and St. Joseph along with keeping Roseau Central, Salsbury and Marigot. If they win these seat, they form the next election. They also have a good chance in Colihault, Roseau South and Soufriere. Going all over the Caribbean and the world is just wasting resources they need to win the above constituencies. They need to come with a good winning strategy to get their message in every hole in Dominica, knowing that laborites don’t listen to Q95 and both DBS and Kairi that most laborites listen to are anti UWP. This election is their’s to lose and they better come up with a gooooooood winning strategy.
dreaming ?
I do agree with you in some cases but I believe in our people they want change and even you will be voting TEAM D’ICA UWP because like all of us you had enough, the people of D’ica a following the team whereever they go but they also have to reach out to those outside D’ica remember those where the folks who came and voted in this present Govt so it’s good to know that we will be waiting for them this time around., as for the other Radio stations things are going to change for the better how long not long, at least your vision is clear
You can’t get enough of a good thing.
Do not put Colihaut in your mess
@ Real Colihaut Man Anybody ginng up in Colihaut will be in opposition even if he/she wins, because Labour will obviously lose the election.
On the night of the election when the results are in, I will be reading DNO to read what you guys will have to say. Then again you guys will be wondering what went wrong and won’t be in the frame of mind to post anything.
So what about Anguilla? You all are not coming to Anguilla, not all of us can take the boat and come over to Sxm u know!!
What about St Kitts .A Dominican became Prime Minister of St Kitts. People would really want to know. I cant talk about it because I may be sued.
Emile; the late Paul Southwell born in the Village of Castle Bruce, a former police office during the colonial era served in St. Kitts. He then turned politician, and was deputy Chief Minister to Robert Bradshaw.
When the West Indies Federation was formed, and Bradshaw took up his post in Trinidad which was selected as Capital of the West Indies, Paul Southwell became Chief Minister of St. Kitts, after the collapsed of the Federation Robert Bradshaw returned to St. Kitts, and took over his old position as Chief minister.
After Independence, Bradshaw died while in power, Southwell again became Prime Minister, and eventually died in office while he was on official governmental business; I am not sure if it was in Trinidad, or Barbados he expired, that was in the late 1960’s early 1970’s.
By the way Paul Southwell was born in Dominica to Antiguan parents, who were from the village of Sea View Farm in Antigua, they migrated to Dominica in the 1920’s, remember in the 1920’s and even in the late 1940’s people immigrated from Guyana, Barbados, Antigua, Montserrat, St, Kitts, and Nevis, and a few Anguilans.
We must not forget also that Perceval, and also Jerald Watts who served in government on the island of Antigua are born to Dominica parents, and the man who along with old man V. C. Bird who formed the Antigua Trade and Labor Union, the Levi Joseph was Dominica born also, a village boy born in Thibou.

Team Dominica education the people. Great Job. Don’t allow the Labour party to pull the wool over you eyes fellow Dominican.
Lazy guys jus loitering around instead of being productive then say they want to get into government. sorry workers no place for loiterers in government we have a working government they will stay.
Which working government? Seriously? Every Wednesday people line up like flies below ministry……………… please stop being a menace. You are just using oxygen and leaving unnecessary carbon foot prints. Go hide your self.
@Chupes,………., The Socialist, Nationalist and Democratic government. The Dominica Labour Party led by a young man who has a vision to modernize his country.
The Administration of the Hon Roosevelt Skerrit who will be building a modern airport and a modern hospital soon. Who is importing modern technology for renewable
energy
Next term we shall see the implementation of plans to boost Agriculture and Tourism as a combined industry for sustainable development.
I hope this answers your question. And I hope you like it.
Do you know what is work? Please don’t refer to DLP practice of corruption and deception as work. You clearly don’t know what is work as far as government is concerned. You sound like a little robot programed by Tony Astaphan.
Team Dominica is back at it again! Why does UWP find it critical to visit the many islands according to them that have a heavy concentrated area of Dominicans living? What rights that UWP are going inform the Dominican Diaspora off when it was said over and over that Dominicans residing overseas have no right to vote in Dominica’s general election? This political party is interesting to say the least.
Oh dear! Such a confused bunch! They brag about credentials, however, their actions contradict their claims. They don’t have the slightest clue about winning an Election. Lennox was on the radio this morning predicting that election date will be announced soon, however, they have embarked on a journey to satisfy their selfish needs, rather than focus on the people on the ground. UWP will continue to learn by observation of the DLP, since they have yet to achieve more than a D. The UWP have not proven their ability to lead, therefore, they will face defeat at the next election which they so desperately want. Needless to say, they are not ready. DLP, all the way!
No more hand out for you my friend but before Skerrit leaves make sure you have something to show for the 14years of service to him
Well if it’s DLP all the way y seat and waist time making comments? Are u afraid ? Seat back and watch the UWP do there thing, if u so confedent don’t speak ,,,oh plz whith u labourights ,,,
@ DC…..contrary to what you seem to have convinced yourself about the DLPs ability to lead; this is just you blowing hot air. The real reality is that they can’t. They don’t have the slightest inclination on how to reengage our growth engines. The education started right here at home with the coast to coast in 25 where all the communities were visited; small and large alike…we’re too forgetful here. All Dominicans deserve to be a part of our nation building. Great team, great vision, great initiative….DLP is too ashamed to do this even if they want to….
WE LEAD AND THE OTHERS FOLLOW
Have you been following Caribbean politics lately? Most Caribbean Islands are following in Dominica’s footsteps, why is that?
Do you realize how shallow and empty you DLP supporters are. Since we are all Dominicans, that is so embarrassing, for fellow Dominicans like myself to be displaying that high level of chronic ignorance on the internet. You need to do better because you can do better. The choice is yours.
More loitering and sightseeing…
how you know that have you been loitering?
its looking like your free food and money soon stop but don’t CRY god will take care of you and the rest people like you that don’t want to work to eat
Jergens, I guess your comments tells me that you do not understand the dynamics of the politics of the 21st century where the message has to be brought to the people, maybe you need now to look and learn instead of making a nuisance of your self by your comment.
Lol, CIA on the Watch! Ever heard of the expression “modern 21st technology”? Google it.
After you have done so, tell us which other party in the world goes on a world tour to “bring” the message to the people. I tell you, CIA on the Watch, you support a very confused and lost pressure group that is struggling to be relevant as a political party. Struggling! Trying hard, even too hard.
CIA you got a good point but Bogoroy crash you. Hit you for six. Election fever. Who will win? Your guess is as good as mine. look commedy
Baie-Mahault is a town in Guadeloupe which hosts the largest Industrial Zone of Europe (Guadeloupe being an integral part of France).
It is not however a part of the chief admistrative town of Basse-Terre. Guadeloupe is not a country but a region/department of France and consequently does not have a capital.
Graham, your are strictly speaking correct. Basse Terre is a regional capital but I think you are splitting hairs. As for Baie-Mahaut being the largest Industrial Zone in Europe I beg to differ. That title in my estimation goes to Trafford Park (Manchester, U.K.), which covers 1,300 acres.
Hummmn hummn hummmmn
Them Fellas just like to waste time.. Gonna education people about the election laws..Really!! That must be a joke!
