Subject: UPP’s Leadership Crisis: A Call for Urgent Change

Dear Editor,

As we advance through 2024, a year marked by rapid global change and innovation, it is both disappointing and alarming to observe the state of leadership within the United Progressive Party (UPP).

The recent articles, “UPP Things Fall Apart: The Center Cannot Hold” and “Letter: Who is the Dictator? D Gisele Coming for Richard” from Antigua Newsroom reveal a party entrenched in chaos and devoid of effective leadership.

The UPP has a wealth of strong candidates and capable members of Parliament who possess the potential to bring about meaningful change. However, this potential is squandered by the glaring absence of competent leadership.

If the UPP genuinely believes that they can unseat Gaston Browne and the ALP administration with Jamal Pringle and Gisele Isaac at the helm, they are woefully mistaken and seemingly stuck in the dark ages.

The internal conflicts, lack of direction, and power struggles highlighted in these articles underscore the UPP’s inability to present a united and visionary front.

This is 2024, a time when Antigua and Barbuda require strong, forward-thinking leadership to rebuild the government and navigate the complexities of the modern world.

The current state of the UPP, characterized by disarray and ineffective leadership, only serves to weaken the party’s position and leave our nation vulnerable to the ALP’s continued dominance.

The UPP must recognize the urgent need for dynamic leaders who can unite the party, inspire confidence, and articulate a clear, progressive agenda.

The party’s talented candidates and members of Parliament are being let down by a leadership structure that is out of touch with the demands of contemporary governance.

Without a transformative change in leadership, the dream of a UPP-led government will remain an unattainable illusion. It is time for the UPP to rise to the occasion, embrace modernity, and present a cohesive, forward-looking vision for the future of Antigua and Barbuda.

Sincerely,

Joseph Stevens

  1. TO THE WRITER OF ALL THE ARTICLES:

    WHY DON’T YOU GIVE UP U JUST CHATTING CRAP CONSTANTLY.

    THE ANTHONY ISSUE IS ALL ABOUT MONEY: SIMPLE AS ABC. HE SOLD HIS SOUL AND THOSE OF HIS CONSTITUENTS. HOW CAN U REAP SCORN ON THE UPP AND ITS LEADERSHIP WHEN THEY PRACTICALLY WON THE LAST GENERAL ELECTION AND WHICH WAS STOLEN BY GASTON AS CLEARLY STATED OUT OF HIS MOUTH ON POINT FM.
    EVEN WITH THE DEEP POCKETS BY THE MONIED CLASS, THE UPP WAS ON TOP OF THE ABLP AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE CURRENT GOVERNMENT IF NOT FOR THE THEFT OF THE ABLP.
    GIVE UP TRYING TO SOW DISCORD WHOEVER YOU ARE. U SOUND SO INSIPID.

  2. Fellow UPP supporters never forget what Deuteronomy 31:6 says:

    “BE strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for its the Lord your God who goes with you …”

    REMEMBER, THE DEVIL IS A LIAR …

    Thee UPP “practically” win the last general elections? Do you mean like the “The greatest Prime Minister that never was”? Get real, my fellow man.

    The ABLP had many challenges going into the elections: The pandemic lock-down, the teargassing exercise, water saboteurs added to our water woes, the unfortunate African migrants disembarkation at an inopportune point, and they were still able to pull through a victory.

    So; your “practical winning” means nothing. Since then, the Labour Party is growing exponentially with many youth people signing up.

    Continue to be angry or join the ABLP church. If not you will be angry for many years to come.
    We welcome new members every day.
    Long live the Labour Party. 🚩

  4. Until Giselle realize she is a soar foot to the UPP , The patty will go down the drain. Once people challenge certain position in the UPP during a convention their days are over
