This move by Skerrit is a gross disrespect to the constituents of Grand Bay. The DLP has not conducted a delegates conference for quite some time, definitely not for the last election, and now to attempt to usurp the people’s rights by assigning them a representative is tantamount to constitutional treason. But Grand Bayrians can fight back. If the truth is that the people of Grand Bay are not happy with being treated as children with no self-will, then Grand Bayrians show your will and do not vote for this hand-picked
charlatan.
He did so in Wesley as well. It’s either his way or the high way. Long time I told you, Dictatorship we have in DA.
If UWP sends up a candidate in Grandbay that would be it for me and my support of UWP. We are already upset about the election reform we didn’t get and Grandbay is labors Moton like Portsmouth that is Skerrit potato garden. So we have nothing to lose. It would be much better for UWP to save their money so they can use it in the Veille case constituency when Skerrit resigns to become president, if the US with help from Vince Henderson does not not pick him up as soon as he resigns
DNO let me once again use space on this very interesting article to echo the warnings of Jesus about Satan , so that they don’t they be very watchful.
John 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and it is your will to practice the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar and the father of lies and half-truths.
1. SATAN IS A MURDERER
Seems strange that in a conversation that’ exposes Satan as a liar, Jesus finds it necessary to start with Satan a murderer. Why? A prolific liar is a murderer because he will kill to get rid of instructions or evidence of his lies
2. There is no truth in Satan
So whenever he opens his mouth we already is to tell a greater lie
3. Lying is his natural language
So Satan understands no other language but a lie
4. He is the father of lies
All that’s in satans…
Another characteristic of Satan Jesus didn’t mention in this verse but it appears in Jan 10:10
The thief comes to STEAL, kill and destroy
1. Murderer
2. A liar
3. A Thief
Villagers of Grandbay and Dominicans on a whole better be on the alert as Satan these days will be busy walking around to see who he can devourer
Why are you so obsessed with what Satan is, such a fetish worship, you said that in a previous comment. You must be careful about repetition, it can convert an action into a habit.
@ Gary, I shall keep saying it until you and all Dominicans stop dealing with Satan. I will keep saying that until you all see Satan for who he is bro. You sounding like you are in bed with someone you know with the same characteristics of Satan and the exposure have you troubled lol
Mr. Skerrit, by handpicking an outsider to be the parliamentary representative of Grand Bay in the upcoming by-election, he has given the electors of GB the middle finger.
Here is the statement I keep hearing from Prime minister Roosevelt Skerrit:
Ladies and gentlemen, as we get ready to celebrate the 43rd anniversary of Dumb-in-a ca, I want you to know that your passport has now made it to the supermarkets around the Middle East. So yes ladies and gentlemen, I hope you have seen the video of our dear CBI citizen as he in the supermarket advertising your passports to just about anyone just as a sales man trying to sell used cars in an auto auction.
Boy you remember that calypso sang by king Dice “A man selling his nation on My Dominicatradehouse.com”? Back then it was Alireaza Monfared that was the salesman for Skerrit. Now Monfared is jailed in Iran for corruption, Skerrit seems to have found a new salesman. So I am waiting King Dicey this time for another Big one on A man selling his nation in a Turkish supermarket .
As Handbag goes on his campaign I hope he Carries some old passports in a handbag together with some groceries from a…
The pasport seller in Iraq is the ALT Group and yes, you will find them in the Govt. records of authorised CBI agents. I do not understand why Matt was trying to make excuses for the P.M. and infer that he may know nothing about this when we know that he has to approve every agent appointment in person. All I can say is that Matt must be very naive and leave it at that.
According to our Govt. records this particular agent is located in Sulaymaniyah, a town in the Kurdish heartland of Iraq, close to the border with Iran, which has also a seizable Kurdish population on its side of the border. It is known that Iranian born Kurds have obtained Dominican citizenship for visa free access to Europe using the services of this, Govt. authorised CBI agent. I’m afraid that Roosevelt Skerrit May be way out of his depth and has put a lot of unwanted attention on our country.
Its a darn shame that the so called leaders in Grand Bay have not reacted to this insult and tell Skerrit take a hike. Pierro, Roosie, Liverpool, ED, Fabien and even Felix Henderson must be turning in their graves seeing what has become of our cultural and revolutionary capital. The leaders have become blind and the young men have all been politically castrated while Vince and Skerro laughs all the way to the bank.
Where are all the graduates that call Grand Bay Home? Anyway, Dr, Hand Bag will daykarlay Vince if the ballot boxes have not been stuffed.
Is it not a damn shame to elect an uneducated man who is a bus driver to Parliament? Handbag is nothing but another capasa. Would you send Handbag to the United Nations to meet Susan Rice? You should be ashamed of yourself. They should be turning in their grave when they see an unpolished, uneducated, passenger bus driver be their replacement.
@ds…Pres. Maduro from Venezuela is actually a bus driver by profession and the president of Indonesia was a street monger turned businessman and then president. After the election I will remind you that the said Handbag is now Hon. Handbag.
Remember that Hon.Romanus Bannis, the uneducated farmer from Castle Bruce beat two doctors (Dr.John Jno.Finn and Dr.Magdaline Darroux) in a general election. He died boasting that was his greatest achievement and hence today it remains his greatest legacy. When mouth will open you will hear about promises made to the same Handbag if he would back out and NOT run. Watch this space…..
You are plain silly DS and shortsighted. Would you call Reginald Austrie educated.? He calls himself a Rottweiler and says he is educated in the jungle and most of us would say he is vulgar, at least his language is. But the thing is the people of Cottage voted for him which is their democratic right to do. The people choose their representative and not the PM. That is not democracy but dictatorship.
So Skerrit has his salesman advertising our our passports in a supermarket as if it’s an old unpopular bottle of rum and to distract Dominicans from taking about the video that’s going viral the con artist running to talk about by election? Boy it’s so damn embarrassing to watch that video as a Dominican that I don’t even want people to know I from Dominica. And the hurtful thing is when we are preparing to celebrate our 43rd independence instead of advertising Dominica is damn old Turkish salesman telling the world how they can buy a Dominica passport right in a supermarket?shameful boy
Almost 2 month since Ed passed and they dragged their feet with his funeral. Now, all of a sudden, Mister is in a hurry. This man is a very cunning old fox that doesn’t deserve to be PM of this country. I wonder which impartial agency is going to watch over these elections. I suspect notice is just too short. That’s how that so called PM operates and deceives the people. He can’t be trusted.
Randy all you like to say what you want. The family was the one who waited so long because his loving sisters, dad, and other relatives were away.
Stop saying just what you want to hear in your head.
Stop this!
Don’t you know bye-elections are governed by an act and must be done within a time frame? You will use anything to say something about the PM. Why hate? Someone has to become a new Parl Rep and yes within a time frame. Go do some homework.
No law and constitution… is my answer to all you. I hope you enjoy the content of the envelope.
@RandX, get out of here you don’t know anything about the commonwealth of Dominica politics, the trouble with you lots from Ugly Lenny, down you all are much too arrogant to learn, please read the government websites and educate yourself about Grand Bay by-election and how many days between or the passing of Ed is 90 days. I suspected by the way that you write you no longer leaves in Dominica but USA. Don’t forget to collect your free food tickets for your next meal!!!
Randyx section 55 of the constitution of the Commonwealth of Dominica states that an election must be called within 90 days. So before you make statements you would make yourself knowledgeable about what you want to talk about. The Minister died 01st September 2021. 90 days after this falls on or about 30th November so the election date is within the 90 days. Check your calendar.
All the other statement you make is null and void including the dragging of feet on the funeral. Do you know that most of his relatives including his loving sister and dad live out of Dominica? They would not have missed a man like Ed’s funeral for nothing covid or no covid. So quit trying to make a point about the PM. Your conscience should sear.
They have gotten so low that they support an uneducated bus driver to be the next candidate for Grandbay’s bye-election. If only the Democrats and Republicans in America were to see the picture of our next candidate for Grandbay, they would be ridiculing us and laughing at us. That is how low %, IBO FRANCE, Jonathan and company have gotten. What a shame and disgrace. These guys still have that Christopher Columbus mentality, 1493. They claim to be educated but, it is just a claim.
Randy X, why are you comparing the PM to a cunning fox? That’s an insult and a colossal embarrassment to all foxes.
Ibo, point taken.
I just killed a fox the other day. Was that an embarrassment, an insult? Voting a bus driver to Parliament, isn’t that an embarrassment and an insult to the very fabric of our society, of our Parliament? Or are you just voting a donkey in just to spite Skerrit? There can be no comparison between Skerrit and a fox. You would hope to see and meet Skerrit in Parliament but not a fox.
