\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

It is moral, ethical and legal for any candidate elected under a party to become independent and work with who ever and which ever party in their view is considered to be in their best interest (political career) and the people they represent (wrongfully or rightfully)<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is legal for smith to work with ABLP as that is what the constitution and statutes allow (see my previous comments, as this is my way of helping).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let us talk about the moral and ethical part of it, it is moral and ethical because the people MP Smith represents is on constructive notice that any person they elect have the right to take actions that he (subjectively or objectively or smartly or stupidly) believes is in the best-interest of his constituency and the country. So, you are on notice (you are aware and gave such power to the candidate you vote for, once you vote). When a candidate wins, you handed him such rights, him exercising such rights you gave cannot be immoral, as you, the public gave him the legal and moral right to make these decisions while he is in office. He is in office.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Please be aware of the rights you are giving the Ministers of government you vote for. You gave him the right to become independent and still keep his office (please see Antigua and Barbuda constitution). He accepted and utilized this right that you gave when you voted.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You gave him the right to work with anyone (the devil or God) for what he believes is for the betterment of you? He accepted and used it, the right you gave him when you voted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, I am not saying I agree with his decision, and I am not a supporter of ABLP (not anymore) but what MP Smith did cannot be considered to be immoral or unethical or illegal as you gave him the right to make these decisions and act (objective and or subjectively) and you know my way of helping is about telling you the truth, especially about politicians who loves saying I cannot help you to folks trying to make a major difference but then helping themself and their family.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The decision he was allowed to do, he did not waive such constitutional rights when he was running, and I am not sure this kind of constitutional right can be waived. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MP decision cannot be made immoral, illegal and unethical in this case. I am sorry for those who do not want to hear this, but this is the truth.  I am not ABLP, and I am not UPP, but I am for the people of the United Islands of Antigua and Barbuda. <\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Know your rights so your decision can be made voluntarily and knowingly (let me see if I remember the Tort Law defense Latin phrase, Volenti Non-fit injuria). Volenti Non-fit Injuria, is that you assume the risk inherent to the action you take. You cannot penalize someone when you voluntarily took a risk that you know or should know exist. I am writing this from memory, so pardon me if any part of this Latin term is wrong. Law school days were years ago.<\/p>
