    They were just giving the novice a tour of Dominica. Some area they pass straight. Made little or no sense. They are very disappointed , don’t let them fool you. The impact and the reaction towards them was cold. People hardly noticed them. Their expectation of crowd response was high, but it was quite the opposite. They cannot fool us. WE have eyes and ears. We seeing and we hearing. Who fool all you>>>>>> Get real people. YOU ARE ALLREADY DEFEATED.SO WHAT IS THE NEXT MOVE. LAST NIGHT AT POTTERSVILLE WAS DISAPPOINTING TOO.

    Alas the man did not know Dominica. So he decided to become a tourist.

    Didn’t he say because he is on a radio people think he know them and they him? Well he let people know I do not know you nor do I want to know you, so I will not say hello to you. That went down very badly.

    So they decided some PR make over was needed and quickly to be done to try and create an image and he should get to know people so he went on a 21 in 25 thinking we would forget.

    You can bet that this was Thomson Fontaine’s idea to use this american style road tour as they did in Obama and the others campaign in the US.

      Change was President Obama’s and the Democrats

      Another phrase was from Freedom Party

      500 new jobs was from the DLP they added an extra Zero for their fantasy.

      Working with the DLP friends and partners after heavily criticizing everyone of them now they want too in case they form the government – not good enough. Our partners may not want to work with them because they went beyond politics.

      What exactly is their own initiative? I am waiting still, did anyone get a job after that exercise? I meant the Labour and the Freedom Party and the UWP I would think have traveled the country during election campaign, so that is not new. Most of us do that as a rule.

    Why don’t you people see the good that is being done. Instead your eyes are closed to the high level of corruption that is being done by your government. Don’t you see they are making you poorer. Don’t you see how they are becoming richer. They are fooling you all. Right before your eyes, they are doing corruption and you are happy about it. God is a God of justice and I have no fear. He will do what has to be done in His time.

      @ OBSERVER.. The trouble is with you all, and the inability to get candidates of credible character. You thought the people didn’t know what was going on in this regime that you grovel to.Are you not ashamed that honest and respectable people do not want to be associated with your party?

      Have you seen lennox resume, why is it u have to be a parrot
      Like everyone else.
      The level of ignorance in this country is at an all time high.
      You don’t spread propaganda because u don’t like someone.
      Look in the mirror, most of you who criticize never work a day yet living in your parents house get a life!

    Big joke!!! From all reports the top brass are very disappointed in the level of response on the ground and are actually confused as to the next move. They will continue to put out a public face to to try and convince people that it has been going well.

    They went to Petite Savanne and acknowledged that all those present were under the age of consent much less the voting age!

    They came Canefield yesterday and they were greeted by red in the Bena Ravine area…don’t you guys get the pic??? Leave Petite Savanne out of you all nonsense! We standing 100% behind our Doctor

      @ T-SAVANNE This Doctor is an absolute and total waste of time. This is probably the constituency’s biggest failure. The man is incapable of doing anything significant to uplift and impact the lives of his constituents.Instead he has them like beggars in the same way that Skerrit has most of his poor and indigent labourites. SHAME ON HIM,AND SHAME ON YOU…………….because I really thought that he would have made a difference. Surely I won’t vote him, since he is a total waste.

      That’s your democratic right and I respect that, Dominica is still a free democratic country and any Dominican can travel where they choose, when they want freely, you can’t stop that.

    This is a very good strategy. Uwp is subconsciously roping in the undecided and dissatisfied voter. Physical interaction has
    Been proven to produce positive results

      @Toronto – Is either you pretending you’re blind or maybe your distance in Toronto puts you too far away from the scene. Hence your ‘visibility’ seems to be affected.

        They obviously see this as a better way forward that sitting in Parliament and debating real issues. When the tyres on the tour bus wears out then perhaps they will head to Parliament and stop wasting their supporters time!
