This mortal sin is obvious to all who still listen to the filth and vitriol spewed from Crusader Radio against anyone who offers any constructive criticism, on any platform. No matter how big your reach or influence, if you question the obvious issues with the UPP leadership in any way, shape or form, you are on the firing line!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all the bloodletting since the last UPP Convention, do Isaac and Pringle truly believe that further disrespect and disunity will strengthen the party they claim to love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Does alienating a key strategist and major contributor make sense ahead of a critical by-election?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answers are obvious to everyone but Isaac, Pringle, and the brain-dead acolytes who give them aid and comfort in resisting positive change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To a majority of supporters, it has already become very clear that Isaac and Pringle have completely lost it. They have zero concern for the prospects of the party: not for its cohesion, not for its reputation, and certainly not for its political viability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We must also ask what kind of &#8220;leader&#8221; would allow Gisele Isaac to continue steering UPP on course of division and destruction. Has the &#8220;UPP safe seat&#8221; Pringle inherited from the late Charlesworth Samuel gone to his head?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As others have already stated, Pringle owes his two victories to party loyalty cultivated by the strong representation of Charlesworth Samuel, not himself! This inheritance has been totally squandered by his ineffective representation and uninspiring leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our nation is calling for leaders who are unifying, strategic and seen to be capable of steering the ship of state, not those hiding behind Women&#8217;s Forum cult members or in the shadow of their predecessor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time is running out, and the final moment where change has a meaningful chance to deliver hope is almost upon us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can no longer tolerate &#8220;me nah move&#8221;, while Rome burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We must reject the gaslighting and pleas for &#8220;Little Black Boy&#8221; sympathy. Countless little black boys and girls have risen to competence and service in our twin-island state, striving for performance, not pity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The time to make the hard decisions to secure meaningful change is now!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over to you, Brother Lovell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tick. Tock. Tick.
