LETTER TO THE EDITOR: MP Does Not Know What Is Going On In His Constituency: Algernon “Serpent” Watts<\/a>‘ Absenteeism and Lack of Genuine Interest in Potters Exposed<\/strong><\/p>

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

The recent attempts by MP Algernon “Serpent” Watts<\/a> and supporters of the United Progressive Party (UPP) to deceive the public regarding the road construction in Potters have been met with a stern shutdown in parliament. Despite their claims, the road construction, which began around January, is clearly visible to the public. Yet, some members of the opposition have attempted to mislead the people by falsely stating that work only started today, a claim that has been thoroughly debunked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the first lie failed to gain traction, UPP supporters quickly shifted their narrative, now claiming that the road wouldn\u2019t last and wasn\u2019t a priority. These statements appear to be nothing more than desperate attempts to discredit the hard work being done by the government, especially when considering that the construction in Potters represents a significant improvement for the community.<\/p>

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

The situation took a turn when MP Algernon Watts, during the ongoing parliamentary debate, interrupted MP Anthony Smith\u2019s speech. Watts suggested that Smith, in his support of the Minister of Works, Honorable Maria Browne, was acting out of improper motives. Smith had been addressing the importance of road works being carried out in St. George, a constituency that the ABLP did not win in the last election. Smith’s words were clear and focused on the facts, standing behind the progress in infrastructure, even in constituencies where the ABLP did not secure a victory and asked all members of Parliament to play a role in the development of the country\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>

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

However, Watts seemed intent on undermining the conversation. He attempted to cast doubt on the road construction, suggesting that Smith\u2019s support of these projects was politically motivated. In contrast, Smith provided concrete details about the ongoing works, such as the road starting from the Tamarind Tree. His remarks were grounded in the reality of the development, emphasizing that infrastructure is being improved across Antigua and Barbuda, regardless of political affiliations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s more telling is how Watts and the UPP have handled their own constituents\u2019 needs. When discussing his constituency of St. George, Watts was nonchalant, stating that he could do little to help because he wasn\u2019t in power. This attitude betrays his complete disregard for the people he represents and underscores his absence from the community. The fact that Watts was unaware that road construction was underway in St. George speaks volumes about his disengagement from his constituents’ needs.<\/p>

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

This lack of involvement and awareness by Watts stands in stark contrast to the proactive approach being demonstrated by the current government. While the ABLP, through Minister Browne, continues to invest in infrastructure development, even in areas that did not support them in the last election, Watts remains largely uninvolved in his community\u2019s progress. His focus on casting doubt and playing politics with critical infrastructure projects reflects poorly on his priorities, especially when compared to the tangible benefits these projects are bringing to local communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is clear that while the UPP and MP Watts may continue to spread misleading narratives and sow confusion, the people of Antigua and Barbuda can see the roadworks for themselves. They can witness the improvements that are happening, despite the opposition’s attempts to undermine them. The facts are clear: road construction in Potters began months ago, and the ABLP government remains committed to enhancing the country\u2019s infrastructure for the betterment of all.<\/p>

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

Watts and the UPP\u2019s continuous efforts to deceive the public are not only misleading but also demonstrate a lack of concern for the real issues affecting the country. While they focus on petty politics, the ABLP is getting things done\u2014improving roads, building communities, and making Antigua and Barbuda a better place for all its citizens. It\u2019s time for the UPP to stop with the distractions and join in the progress that the nation is clearly moving forward.<\/p>
