They are all running against Asot Jumby! Turner watch out for the Coach Wrench because it could flip your wagon.
Go Green all the way
The Antigua and Barbuda Labour party is the party of choice as always…
Voting for Labour,is voting for everlasting prosperity,and continuous employment opportunities
All I know is that voting for Turner is voting for gaston and that isn’t happening in my book.
Send the labor party and the pm a strong message, vote against them!
Anybody but labor!
They are bleeding antigua dry!
Think my people, think!
They are trying to buy you..
Don’t let them take your vote for granted!
I won’t be surprised if they had asot silenced!
👀
It would’ve been nice if only one of these candidates statement was I will continue where Asot Michael left off knowing Asot had this constituency for a long time and the people believe in him.
‘Voting for Labour, is Voting for everlasting prosperity ‘. Prosperity for whom? The majority of Antiguans is living in squallor and it’s evident especially during an election period. Many parents in St. Peter’s, particularly Parham, will be facing financial difficulties come this new school year because the ALP has created a path to keep them dependent.
I wouldn’t be dare pompous enough to think that I’m a politician,no sah, but one thing I know,is that I speak the truth everytime I speak on this forum. I have spoken for the good and the bad of Antigua,but all was truth, and one thing that I hold fast to, from my many engagement on this forum and with the people of Antigua, is that this present Government that is governing Antigua right now, has squandered the golden years while in office, blatantly misappropriating the opportunities of this beautiful island.
There is no other path for us to be prosperous as a people, other than through true patriotism to ones cause and ones solidarity to its own people.
Trump won the presidency in the US for this very reason, and Vladimir Putin is still in power because of the reasons of that very solidarity.
This present Government in Antigua is a sellout, and have enhanced many more foreigners than it’s very own people. That’s what at the poles people,for this very bi-election and for all upcoming general elections.
So chose a different ideology going forward, because this present ideology by this present Government is not the future.
So there you have it..simple.
