Chairman of the Antigua Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) E P Chet Greene says the ABLP is the victor in in the Court’s latest decision regarding the election petition against the former parliamentary representative for St Mary’s South is no real victory
“We are the ones who won.
The Court’s decision actually upholds the thinking of the Labour Party from day one, that Shugy was illegally nominated and therefore ought not to be in the House of Representatives.
How can they claim victory when Shugy is out of the House, as we say, and the matter is going back to the people as we had suggested?”
The election petition against the opposition United Progressive Party’s Kelvin “Shugy” Simon was dismissed by the High Court yesterday after Justice Jan Drysdale ruled that, based on the current situation, the dispute in the matter had disappeared, and there was no live issue for the Court to resolve.
Simon, who was the representative for St Mary’s South until he resigned on June 7, had been facing an election petition which argued that his nomination was invalid because he was still a civil servant at the time.
Greene said that the ABLP is confident that their candidate, Samantha Marshall — who Simon defeated by 199 votes in the January 18 general elections — will be victorious at the polls this time around.
In less than 120 days, St Mary’s South constituents are expected to return to the polls in a by-election.
Greene said that the ABLP has already started the groundwork to ensure victory.

The person who have a chance of winning after losing is the winner. Another opportunity can be great.
The opportunity to show your competence in a debate is also a great opportunity, it should not be ignored.
First I heard the ALP minion SUKIE say that they won the case. I found that astounding. However, to now hear the same crazy and ridiculous position coming from the Chairman of the ALP, Chet Greene, it is absolutely mind boggling. All I can conclude is that the ALP are the greatest spinners on this Earth. Not even Donald Trump comes close.
@Tabor:What did you really expect him to say? Do you know his relationship with that ABLP Candidate? Plus Gaston would kick his ugly faced arse,if he said anything differently. All I would be saying at this time in regards to the Bye Election. Shuggy is going to beat her this time around like a drummer beat his drums. The people of Bolans,Crabbe Hill,Johnsons Point and Urlings cannot be bought. They are a very independent grouping in those Towns.
@ CHIT ‘Football GREEN
You guys are so corrupt. You remind me of Donald Trump when he once told Americans that what they see and hear is not reality. It just shows the type of control you people think you have over the Antiguan public that you can convince us that YOU WON THE CASE WHEN IN FACT YOU LOST IT.
You do NOTHING but patronise us, that even your TANNY ROSE IS SO MAD WITH Y’ALL for fooling him and now you have the AUDACITY to tell us that YOU WON.
As much as stealing the election and feeling no remorse for doing so as your PM admitted to transferring voters in constituencies to help his colleagues.
Paul Chet ‘Delusional’ Greene says ABLP is the victor:
“We are the ones that won …”
NURSE!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Antigua & Barbuda, overseen by clowns 🤡🤡🤡, overlooked by clowns 🤡🤡🤡 and run by a bunch of clowns 🤡🤡🤡
WHAT ARE THESE ABLP POLITICAL NUTCRACKERS TAKING???
May I remind you that you lost Chetty!
Furthermore Chetty, then using your OWN logic, does this mean that UPP won the last General Election even though they LOST?
NO WONDER THE COUNTRY THAT I LOVE AND ADORE IS IN A RIGHT POLITICAL AND FINANCIAL MESS.
LORD SHOW MERCY ON THESE POLI(TRICK)IANS!
Huh?
What?
Did I miss something here?
What did I miss?
I think “Chameleon_Lizard” Greene is in need of a #Colonic, a hydro_colonic delivered by a Fire House with full pressure(1000psi), to flush all this shit he’s spewing from his mouth. It would exit his body even faster, than those he got on the Hydro_Colonic Colon Flush at ANAMEC!
The report then from the tech Gail, that’s a dirty man, physically, mentally, spiritually. I don’t want him as a client. Man Chet, we know you’re full of shit long time now.
Can we get an enquiry into Antigua Airways and see who are the winners(the People) and #who’re the losers(the ABLP’s charlatans).
The Reverse psychology which you’re trying is exactly the science behind giving one a COLONIC.

SOAR LOSERS
Reverse psychology at its finest. Comedy at its weakest. How can you be the victor when the judge threw out the case that you brought?
@Clarke… 😂. My son have the same response when he hear someone talking crap like this guy green.
He goes, huh? What? and then through his hands in the air.. 😂. I swear he cracks me up all the time when he does that imitation 😂.
These people are laughable, and quite frankly people are getting tired of their foolishness, for real!!!
*throw*
“Greene said that the ABLP has already started the groundwork to ensure victory.”
That statement is fully loaded.
Watch out : it may suggest that the ABLP will be pulling out all the shenanigans and skullduggery to ensure that its candidate gets into the house of representatives.
The opposition MUST watch this space with EYES WIDE OPEN AND VIGILANCE BEYOND VIGILANCE.
We know what these criminals are capable of doing; in the most sinister ways.
It is win at any means necessary. They will throw their cards at the devil just to secure a victory. It is a corrupt and evil cult.
They have their spin doctors working on the airways….and their demonic forces working underground in clandestine circumstances to pull off a win.
They have no fear for God and have forgotten that one day…and very soon…they will have to stand before the judgement seat of the Universe and give account for ALL their ways.
Woe be unto the evil ones…for they shall fall in a flash with much lamentation.
As absti says a coming down to talk to you Round South a coming to talk to you
People don’t be fooled by the Alp. We need a change. I am sick and fed up of the shit that’s taking place in Antigua. Up to now the Prime Minister havent addressed the crime situation in Antigua(robberies). All now. Samantha Marshall can talk for herself. Why Gaston and Chet pushing the big talk? Is wha? She will get blow 100 times more that. If y’all watch the votes most of upp candidates didn’t lose by plenty except for 1. That to show you guys(Alp) that y’all had failed the people of this Country and y’all felt the votes. God nar sleep.
Please,please,please,Chet Greene,call the damn Election now.I cannot wait for the 120 days.
I am fully convinced that Antigua and Barbuda is being run by an administration of crack heads. Shugy did the right thing by resigning, which ALP’s geriatric ultimately accepted as being “automatic.”
The frail gentleman accepted the letter of resignation after coming close to causing political confusion within the Caribbean Basin. Now, their chairman is claiming that Shugy was dismissed from the House. Did the bi election occurred without the nation being aware?
It is customary for ALP to carry out their mischief in the very early hours of the morning like they did with Gaston’s migrants. ALP is like the thief that cometh in the early hours of the morning.
St Mary’s South should campaign outside the electoral registar’s office demanding to see the name of candidstes eligible to vote, as no doubt ALP will illegally be infilling people including Gaston’s migrants to vote. What has become of them? Have they been sneak into Barbuda?
UPP supporters we need support St Mary’s South because ALP corrupt administration will be devising their campaign to support Marshall.
I would suggests that Round South keep Carnival in the South, avoid Town and concentrate on keeping Round South Blue. Keep eyes wide open, monitor every entrance in and out of the South.
Has to be a upside down world. UPP reminds of Trump’s alternate reality. When Suggy ran they were warned. People like his lawyer tabor came to the public and lied. They claimed he did not need to resign from his public service job until after the election. A few days later (weeks before the election but after nomination day) he quickly tries to resign. Now watch him now resign from the office he was wrongly elected, yet try to claim victory. His lawyers initially went to court and argued this matter was not for the court, the court pointed out they were wrong and set a trail date. Suggy then blinked and resigned. Suggy reminds of the biblical foolish virgins who had no oil. Watch them now go back to the electorate, This time they know he is ill prepared to do the job he claimed he could do.
I don’t mean to be pedantic as an ardent lover of words @ tenman, but I noted that the FIRST line of your address says:
“Has to be a upside …”
When it should read:
“Has to be [an] upside …”
Just trying to help a fellow Antiguan boss man 👍🏾
Furthermore (as I’ve also mentioned to your buddy @ FromTheSideline), if you want to make what you are saying more readable and on point, try breaking up what you are saying into bit sized sentences, paragraphs and particular one-liners to give your writing some oomph!
You have copied me in the past, why not do it again?
Enjoy your day tenny 👍🏾
TENMAN Cornel Hughes you are really a confounded liar. Only a liar like you would claim that I or any sensible person would argue that a public servant who wants to run in an election should only tender his resignation after the election. That claim by you is so absurd, l believe that something is wrong with your brain. You are as crazy and ridiculous like your fellow minion SUKIE and Chet Greene who claim that the ALP won the election petition case.
@Tabor I take it back. You wrongly stated he had up to do so just before election day (not nomination day). Yet your clients resigned long before that and by his actions conceded the deadline is actually nomination day. Suggested to you in the past that you read the Ros Skettit case in DM re second citizenship for the cutoff day. Was telling watching your side wrongly argue this was not a matter for the court which the judge disagreed. Now that you have won one (with great assistance) will your rates increase to near (deceased)Ralph Francis (lawyers whose clients normally lose ) rates? Hopefully you will learn from this and start offering clients properly grounded advice
“Charles Tabor December 30, 2022 At 6:46 am
Nomination and disqualification for being a member of Parliament are two different things. Section 39 (1) (g) of the Constitution deals with disqualification and one being a public officer. Once Mr. Simon resigns his employment in the Civil before election day 18 January, 2022 he is fine. As the ABEC has rightfully declared all 53 candidates for the general elections have been duly nominated. The requirements for Nomination are provided by the Representation of the People Act. You and Gaston would be well advised to read it.”
TENMAN I maintain my position because no one in Antigua, not even your legal icon Sir Gerald, can cite any law to me in Antigua that speaks to nomination for a general election and the period for resignation prior to nomination if you are a public servant. Section 38 of the Constitution deals with qualification for election and Section 39 deals with disqualification. Read both carefully and you will see that once a person is qualified prior to the date of the election he/she is fine. The Election Act of many countries speak to the time of qualification prior to nomination if you are a public servant. Please do some reading and tell me where in our law you will find such provision. All the Civil Service Act and the Constitution say is that you cannot contest a general election if you are a public servant.
Clearly your client is not buying your argument 1. He rushed (even placed the wrong date) to send in that letter right after nomination day 2. His decision to stop the court matter by resigning due to his fear of the decision. Why then would you think the PM with better advisors would heed you? Last time I saw you a few days ago (3rd ), unlike most lawyers you were running down a client at the magistrate court.
You need to worry where my client is now in the public domain and where he will be after the by-election in St. Mary’s South. I want the PM to continue to heed the advice of his advisors like Sir Gerald so that they can push the country into constitutional crisis, which will cause Antiguans to finally wake up and get rid of the aberration that assumed state power in 2014. The sooner the country gets rid of this unfortunate aberration the better.
