Hey, UPP, who’s minding the store?
The Chairman has dropped everything and gone on a pilgrimage to Ghana to bond with her ancestors. The past political leader is away lecturing to meet his needs. And the incumbent is somewhere about minding his own personal business.

So the question is asked again, who’s minding the UPP store?
It does not appear that the Deputy Leader is interested in party matters, so he is not raising his head, especially knowing that he really does not know much about the UPP, and also there is a cloud over his star that does not make it shine nationally. Many also have a sneaky suspicion that he is amenable to crawling over the fence.
So the job seems to be left to the other three MPs. Lewis is no revolutionary and does not seem to be interested in striking a blow for ascendancy to the throne. At least, not yet. Serpent seems to be slithering his way out of a hole that even with a mike and a voice he cannot keep harmonious and habitable; and Shugy is fighting a David and Goliath battle that has no army standing by to raise his hand in triumph.
So if not them, then who is minding the UPP store?
Can’t be Zizzy. He is heaping brimstone and fire on the ALP, mainly Gaston Browne’s head, on Progressive radio every morning. He has the facts and he is expounding these, but words sometimes fail him to deliver the knockout punch. And he has other problems. He seems to be mortally afraid to confront his party, especially his chairman, with the things he knows are going wrong in the ranks. More bruising, Progressive has a very minimal listenership and reaches perhaps 10 per cent of the population. This is a problem the UPP failed to fix with 10 years in power.
So much of his investigative hard work seems to be falling like rain water into the sea. Besides, his time on radio at 8am is not the best for the listening public. He tries with his stint at Observer in the Snake Pit, but Observer listeners only want a snake in a snake pit, and listeners wander away when only he and Spence are holding down the fort.
This time slot also discounts the new producer ‘Juicy Joan’ who should have stayed around at Observer a bit longer to learn a thing or two more before taking up the role of major early morning mouth piece.
So once again, who is minding the UPP store?
But it can’t be Knight at Night?
He has sworn to be the nemesis of the UPP until there is change in its leadership. He is a fervent opponent of Gaston Browne who he calls the Brown Darg, but he is unhappy with the UPP and slashes them with barb wire words every time he speaks into a microphone.
Long story short, he wants the UPP to do good. He thinks the Brown Darg is destroying his beloved country and must be replaced.

maybe it’s the RAG-TAG-Clown minding the upp store! She vowed to be fair n balanced like Fox news, but everyday the nastiness in her heart gets exposed by each word she utters
“The Chairman has dropped everything and gone on a pilgrimage to Ghana to bond with her ancestors.”
REALLY? And hate richard JAMAICAN wife so? way de JAMAICAN ANCESTORS COME FROM? Nigeria? Different slave ship?
BRUTUS the ASSASSIN were you involved in the planned ASSASSINATION of Asot Michael to cover Emperor Caesars ass? Is it your mouth that you use to cover your Emperor’s Brown ass?
As far as I know the Political Leader Jamale Pringle, the General Secretary Shawn Nicholas and the Deputy Chair Jason Mannix are on island. Can none of them manage the slowly sinking ship? In fact the Political Leader alone should be able to steer the ship safely. Is he that incompetent and needs the puppet Master present?
Shawn Nicholas is done with the UPP. Youy know like when a woman “done” with a man and he ain’t know it? Yeah. Just lakka dat!
Dont ever write off BRIXTONIAN. He has politicsl ambition but too afraid to show his face in the public arena. Brixy boy, you cannot run a campaign from the pages of ANR. Which constituency you are interested in again?
the people will REJECT that clown!!!!
Oh please….where is the writer from Mars?
The UPP STORE only open for business every five years. There will be some opening hours in St.Peters to be announced. Otherwise check back in 2028.
The UPP doesn’t seem to understand when someone leaves the party and crawl into the bosom of Labour they take some supporters with them, it might be relatives, personal friends, or sympathizers, be it 10, 20, or whatever it can make a difference a seat was won by 6 votes even though I have my suspicion about that one. UPP get your damn act together or stay in the politely wilderness
perhaps it’s the CONVICTED PEDOPHILE, IAN “MAGIC” HUGHES left in charge until Chaos Demon retunrs!!!
How Ironic this letter and then this just happened today:

Lawd: Wow! A coo yah! A coo dey. Heaven must be missing a righteous angel, right about now. Gutter politics 101 at its best, from ghetto scavengers all in need of nightsoil disposal to be septic clean. A wank ‘e haffu be so? Both the shit and the fart stinks from the digestive consumption.
What!!! Another recommendation for Brixtonian to go into the political spectrum? Thanks D’Onally 👍🏾
Wow, I must saying the right things!
I’ll admit that if ever I was so inclined, I would ensure that my fellow Antiguans would paid well (and on time), and I wouldn’t make manifesto promises that I couldn’t keep; I would reopen the Holberton Hospital, so that the country has two main hospitals running; financial transparency would be a must, so that every penny cent would be accounted for.
The police and army would be well equipped with 24 hour policing, and our borders secured.
Critical thinking Antiguans would welcome this.
Brixtonian would clean up Antigua easily, but sadly, the country isn’t ready for HONEST and TRANSPARENT politics … so I’ll stick to business – I love it!
Oh please, @Brixtonian.
You think it’s that simple? I guess it’s humor for you. This sounds like comic relief from a novice.
