MP KELVIN SIMON SAID: ABS, many people saw your immature post before you deleted it.<\/p>

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

And as you can see, they were not in favor of the level of unprofessionalism and disrespect displayed by our lone state media, that should be non-partisan in its discourse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is unacceptable and reprehensible for you to include the names of everyone in the picture, except the MP for the area. The people of St. Mary’s South deserve an apology.<\/p>

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

Whether you like it or not, I am the MP for St. Mary’s South. I was elected, just like every other Member of Parliament (including Members on both the governing and opposition side).<\/p>

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

Even the Developer (Ambassador Calvin Ayre) respects that. Your immaturity caused persons on the thread to totally be distracted from the real purpose of being there; to usher in a new development that will be beneficial for the country. This was a significant moment for Antigua and Barbuda!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I take this opportunity to thank the developers: Ambassador Calvin Ayre and the Ayre Group for it’s vision, and CEO of Nikki Beach, Ms. Lucia Penrod and her team, for choosing Antigua and Barbuda as the perfect destination, to add to their distinctive Brand.<\/p>
