Michael Browne says residents can sleep with their doors open

38

Antigua Barbuda Labour Party candidate for All Saints West Michael Browne has said that the country is so safe that residents can sleep with their doors open at nights.

“But when you look at Antigua and Barbuda compared to our neighbours you can sleep with your door open…you can walk down the road in peace,” he said adding that there has only been one murder for the year.

Browne who is education minister was speaking on his party’s performance in the area of crime at a public meeting in Thwaites Corner last night.

He said despite there being an alleged serial killer on the loose “he soon done.”

Browne told supporters that crime is much less now than it was a few years ago.

“There was a time in Antigua and Barbuda you couldn’t even come out your house. Women were afraid to stay in their homes by themselves (because) all kinda mask man ah walk up and down the place.”

He said the public safety minister Steadroy Cutie Benjamin must be given credit for equipping the police with the necessary tools to fight crime.

Benjamin also spoke to the issue of crime during the same campaign event echoing the sentiments of his colleague.

“We have now brought Antigua and Barbuda to a safe place,” Benjamin said.

Antigua and Barbuda’s murder rate soared to 20 last year, an occurrence blamed on turf wars, drugs, and gangs.

He said the so-called vampire killer will be recaptured.

  1. Where does he live? Sleep with your door open?? A mad man is on the loose and there are so many unsolved crimes, yet these people just stick to bullshitting Antiguans and Barbudans. They really believe that we are stupid and don’t deserve better.

  2. Why he doesn’t. Crime is down but more are being burglarized. I thought that was his responsibility. While he chatting. OCS was being burglarized. Gimme a damn break

  3. When your house is surrounded by wires and high walls with broken bottles at the top, plus security lights and cameras covering 360 degree, plus security guards 24/7 well yes indeed sleep with the doors open. What are you wearing anyways a tights. Is that a muscle or fat shirt. Last time I blogged i wrote CB. I thought sit was a mistake calling you Clair but by that look, it seems appropriate. Can you tell us you’ve accomplished Over the four years? How did OUR education accomplishment compare to the rest of the Caribbean? Tell us the facts, show us the stats….CB!

  4. Lol lol lol lol why dont mrs brown dont sleep with his door open everynight all he doing talk what have he done in allsaint west nothing at all and were benjamin get that story from is he real gosh he think these are the year when u can fool people last year alone antigua have 20 murder that so high so pls someone tell benjamin he is insane

  5. Oh my goodness are these people for Real? Well u right send the fools a little further in the bushes..the red coolaide fools cause them will still say yeeeeees..darm idiot them..

  6. Depends on where you live. I live in a violence-free community. I have on many occasions pulled my door in without locking it. Came back home and as expected no one broke in. I wouldn’t say the same for grays green tho.

  7. Last year we had 21 murders. Let me repeat. Last year we had 21 murders. Home invasions were very high. I remember the case of the senior citizen who lives on Fort Road whose door was kicked in while he was at home. He was robbed. Among the items was his Church Collection. The thieves came back for his car. Yes, Michael Browne we are very safe. Tell that to the relatives of the grand mother who was gunned down after returning from Church. Finally tell that to the victims of Delano Forbes. You are not only out of touch, Michael Browne. You are very insensitive.

  8. Pm gave Alternative facts . Now for the true- under the Alp administration Antigua has had the highest muder rate in it history, not to mention a serial killer is running free. With facts like those not even his car the pm leave on locked.

  9. this man is a fish fat belly fish waste of tax payers money, out 4 years alp in power this man out of the country for 3 and a half he was voted in the represent the people but he a try get a paper to say doctereth …he can stay in Antigua and get that lol them people take people for fool. …hope the people realize who these people are

  10. He’s an embarrassment for a representative. Buckleys have no road and the poor excuse for an attempt at road works at this late stage should be enough reason to confine him to the proverbial dust bin.

  11. The vampire killer will be recaptured? As far as I can see there’s been zero effort to find this guy besides offering a reward. Cops still sitting in their air conditioned stations doing nothing. The only way he will be recaptured is if he walks into a police station. Its like the 27 people charged for driving offences last month, the police “caught” them when they had the accident and the car was stuck on side of road. ABP need a new abbreviation, WOFTAM, waste of .. time and money.

  12. Michael Browne you so full of s…t.
    You to think all Antiguans are retards right?
    Where in Antigua safe …really?
    Not even Buckley’s where I am from is safe.
    Delano Forbes was seen down by Willy dam and also by Christina.
    He knows the area really well.
    Still probably hiding out there.
    Some men were shooted up couple years ago not too far from Dan’s Bar.
    Shots were fired after an attempted robbery at Parpy house in Aberdeen.
    Some Buckey people till fool nf because they know what they getting.
    But not me!
    Me a beg you please.
    There is two serial rapists out there plus a serial killer…omg!!!

  13. People wake up these people take us for fools, dont vote ABLP. Vote UPP or DNA.
    Enough is Enough with Gaston n dem

  14. this fish has been out of Antigua so much that he is lost, don’t know how he beat chandler but there was a swing to the alp so even a gold fish could win or a rabbit in a hat thus does nothing but speaks rubbish and take photos and a be tie ,he know the reason you he want people to sleep with their doors open especially men ….time to vote this he adds no value to this country what has he done for all Saints west but travel every day. ….anyway do as your boss say enriched your self creatively

  15. What else do you expect from him, he spend most of his time out of Antigua, he need some catching up to do, then he can talk. Only who knows it feels it

    Whey give us a sense of safety, when you know dam well know you a lie. As for Cutie Benjamin he should have never been appointed Attorney General, another Gaston Browne do as he like policy.
    The clock is ticking for all of them , they got to go.

  16. Time to go drink up me rum…. I’ll be back on the 20th, then drink some more on the 22nd, then say me sick until the 30th

  17. I don’t thing the two B’s (Brown and Benjamin) were in their right mind when they got up on a political platform. With all that went on last year and still going on they talking ’bout sleeping with door open? But then again, one don’t live here. People wise up for this election.

  18. Wise up?? In this beggy beggy society all they care about is who can give them some money and small favours once every 5 years. The politicians are quite right to deal with people the way they do. Labour Party doesn’t have to do any real work, just secure funds to pay for votes and they’re back in power.

  19. A vote for ABLP is for a continuation of left-wing “entrepreneural socialism” and social justice for all. A vote for UPP is for right-wing conservatism. UPP is middle-of-the-road. ABLP speaks for the common man. Forward Ever! Backward Never! The spirit of V.C. Bird is alive and well, and among us.

  20. Mr. Brown spends too much time outside of Antigua…guess he is just out of touch. I hope the former PM and his boss (G. Brown) gives him a reality pill. “Just saying”

  21. @amnesia o my your name nearly gave amnesia trying to spell it but nice name thou, you must behave the problem is he us still in school trying to become a doctor y would a fish want to be come a doctor so he can be called Dr fish where are Pl the papers to show he graduated, thus course he was talking could have been down from home it is like a sba research and write lol these guys go to much school

  22. hey this auto correct is making me look retarded a bet me just vote for the alp to full fill that feeling. ….going supermarket today to buy some red coolaid because I am so confused y people vote for the alp but last night up in pares i saw y the people in that area are beggi beggi u should see the truck loads how can people stoop so low it should be stopped it should be fair game ……

  23. I think that Gaston brown and his gang of thieves are taking advantage of people of Antigua and Barbuda and if we don’t do something about it. it continues first is his wife he throw on the people then it will be his son next people am warning you don’t let it happen please.
