Lovell challenges Browne to back up his ‘best leader’ claim with facts and stats

Former Leader of the United Progressive Party in Antigua and Barbuda, Harold Lovell

REAL NEWS – Harold Lovell is challenging Prime Minister Gaston Browne to substantiate – with facts and figures – his claim to be Antigua and Barbuda’s best-performing leader since Independence.

Browne made the declaration last Friday, October 6, during what has been described as a “rant” while campaigning in Bolans.

Lovell says he has never witnessed anything like Browne’s tirade, by any other leader within the Caribbean, and believes that Browne is dealing with some personal issues.

However he is challenging the prime minister to show what he has actually done, apart from announcing projects that have not materialized.

He notes that the Browne Administration has announced over 30 projects that have not gotten off the ground and that one of its biggest boasts, the YIDA Development – has flopped.

Lovell points to the more than half-dozen hotel projects undertaken and completed during his own tenure as tourism minister, as well as the construction of more than 40 small, locally owned hotels.

According to Lovell, the lone hotel development generated by the Browne Administration – the PLH Project on Barbuda – cannot compare to what the United Progressive Party (UPP) achieved while in office.

He notes that, under Browne, no headway has been made in manufacturing.

And within the agriculture sector, all the prime minister has achieved is the destruction of the Cades Bay Pineapple Farm.

  1. Why is a none, never to be leader challenging a back to back to back leader? You should be challenging other tourism ministers instead Prime Ministers.

    • Lovell is a BIG DISGRACE & BURNING SHAME to society!!!

      He studied ROCKS AND DIRT 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
      TRACK RECORD OF LOSING!!!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

      He and the 💄 🐖 🐷 responsible fu de demise of UPP!

      • No one can beat Lovell when it comes to losing elections. But when it comes to women, I think he beats Gaston. He tries to be with every woman he put his eye on. Lovell is a real womanizer. But none of the women, he Lovell had, can beat the PM’s wife in looks. She is the prettiest of them ALL. Hats off to the PM for that.

    • WHAT DID 40 YEARS OF BIRDISM AND BROWNEISM DO FOR THE COUNTRY???

      And you talk about Lovell … you acolytes are not only delusional, but also myopic. Sheesh!

  2. Lester also said that Browne had too much ground faking breaking and Has not materialised. Boasting about best since independence , selling out the country for his personal gain

  3. This calls for a debate between Gaston Browne and Baldwin Spencer….the only opposition Prime Minister to date. Should be interesting…so hopefully Mr. Lovell can extend an invitation to Mr. Spencer to debate their stewardship of their ruling Antigua and Barbuda 🇦🇬.
    Let the battle of Prime Minister performance begin….Antigua and Barbuda are waiting.. remember Baldwin Spencer is still very active…he is on every platform.. at every public meeting held by the U.P.P.

  4. Hands down Lester Bryant Bird is the best Prime Minister that have been elected to office in Antigua and Barbuda since independence. Winston Baldwin Spencer comes in at number 2. Followed by Vere Cornwall Bird(PAPPA BIRD) at number 3. Last and unfortunately because of the hope that we all felt for the transformation of our little 180 square miles of countryside is Gaston Alphonso Brown at number 4.

    The economic transformation under each of these individuals speak boldly all by themselves. No need for “barfing”, huffing and puffing.

    Just my opinion!

    • @Freetownson

  6. Why is Lovell even speaking by right now? He can’t just stay in the background after losing over and over. Let the actual Leader of the Opposition, Jamale Pringle speak on these issues and go chill with your family overseas.

    • Really Lovell should just quit and give up the dream of being PM. Even die hard UPP suppoters said Lovell at the helm was a weakness of the UPP. The 2023 election was all but handed to the UPP on a sliver platter and Lovell not only fail to win his seat but the party still lost. He needs to quit and let someone else shine.

  7. The best leaders will do all they can legally and morally do to help their people succeed. The best leader while in office probably would not make a ton of money.

    The best leader would not lie to his people about not being able to do things the law clearly says can be done by such leader to help to help others help others.

    Making promises of cutting grass, cleaning gutters in the year 2023 when folks should be accustomed to such regular act from leaders are not sign of good leaders.

    Good leaders want their people to determine they are good leaders base on merit, their performance.

    This message was meant for ABLP, UPP, DNA etcetera.

    I like those leaders who already show signs of achievements prior to entering politics. The millions they made occurred prior to entering politics and not when they entered into politics.

    Good leaders do not deny your application because they suggested you should financial contribute to their political campaign and you mentioned in response you are interested in doing so but ended up giving away that $250,000 to locals thinking when you return you would then offer that political candidate the campaign finance that political candidate requested but you were so touched by locals that you priorities giving locals the money than the political candidate, who you actually still considered giving the money they inquired about but just later because you did the Honorable thing and help locals in need.

    And because of this, political candidate decided to ensure you go through the worse experience ever in forming your business.

    Good leaders work extra hard for people no matter what to show that person, see, no matter what, I will work hard for you.

    Good leaders do not focus on just the money but the potential, the intent.

    And yes, I planned on donating to that politician but had unexpected generosity, paying folks rent, helping my and that politician’s constituency survive.

    If I sponsor your constituency football team, I would have to sponsor my village football team also.

    But because of the unexpected expenses, I planned upon doing so on my return because I gave away the $250,000.00 spending money I took with me intended for the first time to splurge on myself.

    Ended up feeling survivors guilt and gave away practically every dime of it and did not even stay at not one of the hotels I books to go hotel to hotel because I thought the Honorable thing to do was that of the $250,000 you saw me with political candidate person. Including those numerous constituents of yours that I gave in your presence.

    I did not spend a dime of that on myself. Never have.

    So, the revenge and punishment is not justified. Especially the fact I had the intent of giving more, including the additional you wanted political candidate.

    Good leaders do not do this to people because they did not get all they wanted but still got some.

  8. Listen you stupid ‘Browne-nosed’ lemmings…Lovell is who he is…he knows it too!
    But you jack-asses have to come to the realization that Gaston Browne is delusional…as witness by his desperate and raging rant! Straight from the Trump playbook, while you, the ABLP ‘illiterate electorate’ will fill you empty heads with his idiotic braying! Get it through your thick skulls…The man is the laughing stock of Caribbean leaders. Nobody there respects him! He is a piss-poor leader, an even worse communicator, and needs to be voted out!

    • “The man is the laughing stock of Caribbean leaders”.

      Bravo @ Really??? 👏🏾 bravo 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
