PM Browne Criticizes UPP Chairman for Continued Use of Revoked ‘Dame’ Title
Prime Minister Gaston Browne has openly criticized United Progressive Party (UPP) Chairman D. Gisele Isaac for continuing to use the honorific “Dame” despite its official revocation.
The criticism arose after Isaac was referred to as “Dame” during a UPP awards dinner held in celebration of Antigua’s Independence.
Speaking on Pointe FM over the weekend Browne stated, “Up to this day the woman has no dameship, remember that it was revoked.”
“Up to this day, she’s so brazen ‘she ah cal she self dame”.
Browne was referring to the controversial knighting of Isaac in 2014 by former Governor General Dame Louise Lake Tack.
The new Browne administration said the honors given to her and others were revoked.
Isaac previously served as Speaker of the House of Representatives and held several positions in the UPP administration and now serves as the party chairman.

GREEDY , PUPPET MASTER. PRIME MINISTER you are correct She does not like anyone. I shall vote ABLP because how you have exposed the MAN COW. Awful woman.
I am a UPP supporter and never referred to her as Dame because I know it was not right since it was revoked. It is down right deceitful and fradulent. Make no sense. No sane and right thinking person would allow such nonsense to continue. Only in Antigua as the saying gied

Boy she broke stick off in he a** (lol).
If he thinks as much about his wife as he thinks about Dame Gisele Isaac, his wife is/would be a happy woman.
Keep PROSPERING Dame Gisele Isaac.
Why was her Dameship revoked? Usual badmindedness? Ok! Once the govt changes there is a lot of knighthood revocations to do. Just wait.
Oh please..
PM Gatson Browne,for the record, your so-called knighted AG’s tittle needs to be revoked as well, because this man is a total waste..so while you are busy throwing stones, mine that the glass house you live in do not explode by one of those returning boulders you like to pelt at people.
And for the record, I cannot wait for the people of Antigua to revoke your tittle as PM as well, because you are as useless as they come.
And yes, a me islanman26 say dat..so come for me now with your big big mouth.
All talk and no actions from this PM.
Mr. Knight will expose MAN COW tonight. Hope the Blue fly wing is healed.
For years I hear about the effect of the red kool aid but there is also the blue kool aid and it looks to me as if the blue kool aid is more powerful since UPP people cannot see the sins and wrongs of D. Gisele Isaac. If she has so much balls and intelligence she should realize that falsely using the title Dame is improper. It no look good.
Mr. Knight ….Did SERPENT , SHUGY and RICHARD LEWIS attended the banquet ?
He will not answer that question.
He is too busy dreaming about Gisele. Hate will always consume him.
just call her what Damani Tabor referred to her as: CHAOS DEMON!!!
didn’t the UPP-appointed HORSE VOICE gg also give knighthood to her son and gardener? wht a scandal and corruption!
CHAOS DEMON is the best title!
@Hate will consume….my thoughts exactly about Mr Knight. Hey, he is free to criticize whoever he wants but the viciousness and consistency with which he goes after Giselle, I am also wondering if there isn’t something personal there, like he still desiring something that he could not get.
C’mon Knight. Whether we like the leadership or not is really UPPs business. We can either vote UPP not but this constant haranguing
I thought the “D”stood for dumb but I guess it really means Dame? DEAD WITH LAUGH…..
MOST INTERESTING NEWS: …CLARITY FOR INDIVIDUAL AND NATIONAL UNDERSTANDING
ONLY BY THE CURRENT GOVERNOR GENERAL
For various reasons, this bit of ‘…NEWS appears ‘…MOST INTERESTING.’
FOCUSES
Since it ‘FOCUSES’ upon:
(a) ‘…Apparent ‘…QUESTIONABLE BESTOWAL:
(b) …OFFICIAL REVOCATION: and
(c) …CONTINUED USAGE,’ the public interest and public knowledge demand:
(i) ‘…CLARITY FOR INDIVIDUAL AND NATIONAL UNDERSTANDING
NATIONAL UNDERSTANDING.’
REPORTED FACTS
1. ‘…In whatever ‘FAITH,’ the ‘…NATIONAL HONOR’ was reportedly bestowed upon the ‘…FORMER HOUSE SPEAKER, D. GISELE ISAAC,’ by then duly appointed ‘…Monarchial Representative of ‘…HER MAJESTY, QUEEN ELIZABETH THE SECOND,’ and serving ‘…GOVERNOR GENERAL, DAME LOUISE LAKE-TACK.’
2. …Principle dictates that she may not have ‘…UNDONE’ that which she had seemingly conscientiously ‘…DONE.’
3. …Logic dictates that anyone to have ‘…REVOKED THE BESTOWAL,’ then it had to be ‘…DAME LOUISE’S SUCCESSOR,’ the currently serving ‘…Governor General, SIR RODNEY.’
QUESTIONS
(i) ‘…Did ‘Sir Rodney,’ so decreed?
(ii) …Did he so caused the ‘…REVOCATIONS’ to be published in the ‘…OFFICIAL GAZETTE’
for public information?’
(iii) …Now a ‘…Royal Representative of ‘…HIS MAJESTY, KING CHARLES,’ could he, and
should he so act on ‘…HIS MAJESTY’S BEHALF?’
Clearly, the authority and the knowledge seem to reside only with the ‘…GOVERNOR GENERAL.’
*****
REVOCATION POWER/AUTHORITY
Even as some are as brave as a ‘…TIGRESS,’ some are ‘…Chicken-hearted.’
Suffice to say, every ‘…Governor General,’ enjoys a ‘…DISCRETIONARY POWER.’
As it had been the tenure of ‘…DAME LOUISE,’ so it is for ‘…SIR RODNEY.’
*****
NOW
In view of the ‘…Legal Position’ of the ‘…NATIONAL HONORS COMITTEE,’ whether or not it had so recommended to the ‘…REMOVED GOVERNOR GENERAL,’ no ‘…REVOCATION POWER or AUTHORITY,’ resides in the ‘…EXECUTIVE,’ or ‘…LEGISLATURE.’
NOTE WELL
It shall be ‘…WELL NOTED,’ that the issue with ‘…DAME GISELE,’ appears far removed from the case of the ‘…DISGRACED ALLEN STANFORD.’
Hence, there may be a problem for some ‘…COMMITTEE’ and perhaps, some ‘…GOVERNOR GENERAL’ as well.
