ABLP Puts PR Before Plans: He Believes That We Believe His BS

The ABLP administration has the record for the greatest percentage of failed projects anywhere in the world.

Not necessarily that they are the worst performers in the world, but because of their strategy of putting Public Relations before Plans.

Whereas rational governments include PR as part of their Plans, Gaston Browne begins with PR, as his team scrambles to come up with a workable Plan.

Look at the water situation. Burford actually provides a weekly update on water, or as many would say, “the lack thereof.” And every week, the dates change, the strategies change the plans change. When the PR is more reliable than water supply, it means that we have entered a whole new realm of BS.

We see the same thing playing out with Jolly Beach. Gaston Browne begins with a big announcement that he has to retract because the announcement was premature. Then he repeats it as he scrambles to get a plan in place.

Again, whereas rational governments conduct due diligence before making an announcement, Gaston Browne puts the @cart before the horse” or as young people say @ass-backwards.”

We see a similar situation developing with LIAT, where Gaston Browne is preempting his PM colleagues in making pronouncements about the future of LIAT, before solid plans are in place. Let’s see where this one ends up.

Based on this pattern, it is not surprising that Gaston Browne has had over 15 ground breakings or as the UPP has coined a phrase that I like “ground fakings.”

I truly believe that Gaston Browne believes in the phrase “Fake it Till You Make It.” But my humble advice to Gaston Browne is “Boss, You’ve Already Made it and We Get it.” When Gaston Browne Makes a statement, count to 10, maybe 100 and wait for the next shoe to drop.

Gaston is full of GAS in name and nature. Sadly, he Believes that We Believe His BS.

Humbly,

Sunbeam

  1. An perfect description of Gaston Browne. He talk too much. When the shoe drop he put his foot in his mouth. Too much talk. We want action.

  2. Gaston is grasping at straws. His ship is sinking but he and his crew have cans scooping out the water. Neither Gaston or his team are the wiser that their ship is sinking faster than they come up with new ways to fool the people. The longer they wait to call the elections, the worse it gets.

    • So so true @ Economist and PartyPolice, I couldn’t agree more with both of you … that reminds me, I must get some more popcorn in 🍿 and some bullfoot soup 🍲

  3. Nobody ah study dem. Even their own supporters realize they are a bunch of jokers. A failed Experiment.

  4. Beauford needs to stop. It is creating a negative outlook and defeating the purpose. Almost playing the roll of the opposition. APUA has its own public relation officers. Now ABLess and Mr.Beauford and Auntie Gwen are using the state owned media as a propaganda machine it looks dunce. When Journalist play into the hands of politicians they destroy their reputation. Beauford I have see you trying to explain financial issues. The ministry of finance has trained financial experts and a minister who worked at the world bank. So trying to be the ABLP PR and head of the propaganda machine is self destructive. Stick to your anchor role at the 7pm news. By the way Alahandra and Terry were a better team and more respected. They were like a beautiful television couple. She guided him along so nicely , instead of trying to shot him up for personal advancement.
