Good going, time for Minister Greene to be given his deserved exposure. It can’t be about one man daily. Chet is also PM material too
Oops that’s bad, to want to further collaborate with your former slave master is adding more volume to their imposed neocolinial agenda, it’s an elongation exercise, that poor ANTIGUA politician is been infantilized and dealt with from a paternalistic supervision manner, when they come back to antigua they get on the radio to talk down to the semiliterate population and not knowing they are included, these white people when they go abroad just sit them down as a child and write up something for them to sign. It’s just performative politics and traveling all over the world on tax payers money.
