M.P. Kelvin Simon Holds ABLP Accountable for Broken Promises and Blatant Lies at Town Hall

On Tuesday night, the Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) team, including Prime Minister Gaston Browne, Minister of Education, Sports and Creative Industries Hon. Daryl Matthew, and Senator Dwayne George, ABLP caretaker for St. Mary’s South, hosted a town hall meeting at the Bolans Play Field.

The event was intended to showcase progress and plans for the constituency, but it quickly turned into a display of deflection and half-truths.

Hon. Kelvin Simon, M.P. for St. Mary’s South, confronted the ABLP leaders, demanding clarity on their unmet promises and slow-moving projects. Chief among his concerns were two significant by-election campaign promises that remain incomplete, much to the frustration of constituents.

Unfinished Stadium Seating at Bolans Playing Field

The ABLP had pledged to build stadium seating at the Bolans Playing Field, issuing a $200,000 cheque in August 2023. However, very little work has been done, leaving residents questioning the delay. “Where the money gone?” Simon asked pointedly, underscoring the lack of accountability and transparency surrounding the project.

Urlings Primary School AC Units: Fact vs. Fiction

Simon also debunked claims made during the town hall about the air conditioning units installed at the Urlings Primary School. While the ABLP representatives insisted that all units were functional, Simon’s visit to the school this morning revealed the truth: only five of the twelve units are operational. This discrepancy further highlights the ABLP’s pattern of misleading constituents.

Standing Up for St. Mary’s South

Simon’s proactive approach of visiting both the Bolans Playing Field and Urlings Primary School demonstrates his commitment to exposing the ABLP’s failures and advocating for the people of St. Mary’s South.

“The people of this constituency deserve better than empty promises and propaganda,” Simon stated firmly. “I will not stand by while my constituents are ignored and misled. The ABLP must be held accountable for their poor performance and lack of delivery on promises.”

A Commitment to Transparency and Progress

Hon. Kelvin Simon continues to shine a spotlight on the government’s inefficiencies, urging them to prioritize the needs of St. Mary’s South. From neglected infrastructure to broken campaign promises, Simon is determined to ensure that his constituents’ voices are heard and their concerns addressed.

St. Mary’s South deserves better, and Simon remains resolute in his mission to fight for tangible progress and honest governance.

  1. One would think after he was showed the town clown, he would hush his mouth. It was shown at the outing that the foolish virgin was a liar. He claimed no AC at the school was working. Not only did the officials call him out for his lies, A parent who had her child attending the session pointed out her child is experiencing the AC’s working at the school

    He points to the 200K cheque. The PM answered him by pointing out this was the mutilation fee and the stand has been purchased from overseas and its way here. Not surprisingly Shuggy decided to play deaf to the response.

  2. The UPP have a team of leaders that will eventually propel them to victory in 2028. Although we have the Most Honourable Jamale Pringle at present, we have more than a handful that can engage Gaston Browne and his unpalatable cohorts.

    Look at this team of leaders within the UPP:

    Richard Lewis
    Gerald ‘Serpent’ Watts
    Pearl Quinn-Williams
    Gisele D Isaacs
    Kelvin ‘Shugy’ Simon

    And let’s not forget the best Prime Minister Antigua has never had (if and when he returns)

    Harold Lovell

    WOW … JUST WOW!

    🟨🟦🟨🟦 Stronger Than Ever ✊🏾

  3. Shugy said on Mr. Knight show that UPP is NOT ready. Too many problems. Therefore the results will be as follows.

    ABLP will win all 17 seats.

  4. Shuggy “Mr Bangkok” went to the town hall meeting simply to cause disruption,it’s a crying shame.He’s very arrogant and definitely have no decorum whatsoever real clownish behavior .🤡🤡🤡🤡
