  1. Congratulations Bro!
    Antigua and Barbuda is proud of you.
    Put God first in all you do, without him you can’t do anything.
    Stay humble, God will lift you up.

  2. BANK ROBBERS DON’T ANNOUNCE THEY ARE ABOUT TO ROB ANOTHER BANK BEFORE THEY DO SO

    Most times academic achievements are to be recognized. In your case it calls a number of issues into question.

    Behind these glorifications of your achievements, are a number of issues Mr. Beazer should not be pushing out in public; but giving an account of how you intends to address your past.

    Mr. Beazer, it’s time to make use of your training and knowledge “in accountability and transparency in government”.

    So you went to UWI and at whose cost? Where is the give back.

    So you sat on the Barbuda Council. What is the history of your time on the Barbuda Council?

    Were you or close relatives on the Barbuda Council at the time when Access Beach was handed over to your Brother (ENOCH)?. To this day, MP Watts (Serpent) and his crew don’t understand why they were prevented from using the bathrooms at Access Beach.

    I can write about that too. It would be to your benefit if you were send back a statement explaining the situation.

    How about accounting for your time on The Barbuda Council when you and others hand over “Beach House” hotel at Palmetto Point, to a British ex-con.
    It’s time for you to explain how the ex-con did what? Conned Barbuda into turning over the Beach House then turn around and sold it for USD$10 million to PLH now famously named “The Barbuda Beach Club”

    Then you went to Adelphi at whose cost? Where is the thank you to Gaston Browne and Ron Saunders to bail you out when you got into a spat with the police?

    You have ran to the UK after Adelphi went he was to ashamed to return home.

    Currently, you are the founder and Director of the Barbuda Now Foundation. Is this another (I don’t want to say Scam) but what is it?

    What happened to NGO you started after Irma that was suppose to clean up Codrington and build bathrooms at the Ferry Dock? When does it stop?

    Now you are broadcasting MSc in Sustainable Urban Development at the University of Oxford Department for Continuing Education.

    Barbuda has two road with no signage. As I travel from River to Codrington I did not see any light rails. Cross street with traffic signs. No buses or trains, just speeding vehicles. Neither do I see any From Codrington to Two Foot Bay.

    So you are now going to Oxford to study urban planning; not Town planning but urban planning. Antigua could use some Town Planning. Saint Johns is like a ghetto.

    Where on Barbuda or Antigua are the cluster of multiple dwellings, commercial structures and mass transit?

    Urban Planning Kendra! This is not Jamaica where your pay is based on your degrees you collect.

    And Kendra aren’t you aware that another NEPO Baby was a Rhodes Scholar, and an alumni of Univ. of Oxford.

    Do your homework, and you owe us a lot of answers. I’m sure you do not want other to be providing the answers for you.

    • CHIMPY-LIKE REPLY: …READING IS BELIEVING: …BITTER AND GRUMPY CHIMP?

      Aint inviting neither trouble, nor argument.

      It has been said: ‘…Seeing is Believing.’

      So too, is ‘…Reading.’

      Never like this ‘Page.’

      Too many ‘…IDIOTIC COMMENTS.’

      Yes! Standing firmly. Who don’t like it, could ‘…Smoke it.’

      This darn ‘Reply’ sounds ‘…CHIMPY-LIKE.’

      Once heard ‘…One Comment’ just like this before.

      Said to have been posted on ‘Social Media’ by a ‘…Bitter and Grumpy Chimpanzee.’

      Your Dad and Mom- ‘…Tyrone and Sonie’ must be very proud parents.

      Both are well know to me.

      Of course, when assigned on ‘…Law Enforcement Duties’ on the ‘Sister Island.

      All Barbudans, at home and in the ‘Diaspora,’ especially the ‘Leicester County.’

      CONGRATULATIONS ‘…Oxford Scholar.’

      Let no ‘Chimp,’ cause distractions or dissuade you from your educational endeavors.

    • Only your own people try to pull you
      do and that is why the black race is not progressing as it should. Just simply congratulate the young man on his achievements.

  6. Not True. My dad, Olva W. Flax, OBE, former PS for External Affairs and Defense and in charge of the passport office graduated from Oxford, circa 1966.

  8. I hope these prestigious institution are not just trying to harvest his brains as a potential new leader for Barbuda to control the future narrative of the country, there educational system teaches us to be responsible handler of power, to allow the white real estate domination, to democratize you, wherein capitalism the slave master and democracy is the whip on a plantation style economy.
