He says the others are totally unfit.

  1. I certainly agree with the PM….. Antigua is a blessed place and from the time Noah built his ark, Antiguans are a proud set of people…. It will be disgraceful & embarrassing to have a slate like that on the international stage representing us….. ANTIGUA NEEDS PROPER REPRESENTATION!! UPP needs to rewind and come again..

    • If you are saying that all the competent people in Antigua are in the labour government, then that would make Antigua a country full of dunce elements. Consider how the USA government operates. They have people with expertise helping to make decisions. I know you wouldn’t accept this concept as you are use to a government patterned after a dictatorship. What one man says goes. A UPP government will never be a one man puppet show.

    • IS THIS FEAR TALKING! THE UPP IS AHEAD IN THE POLLS!

      UPP 12 SEATS
      ABLP 4 SEATS
      BPM 1 SEAT

      THAT IS WHY GASTON IS AFRAID TO CALL THE ELECTION

  2. Prime Minister Hon. Gaston Browne is correct. UPP Candidates are all LOAFERS , CHARLATANS.

    Live in People’s home and not paying the rent

    Went to JAIL for murder

    Writing bounced cheques.

    Spokesperson went to JAIL for molesting a young girl ( PEDOFILE )

    75 % OF UPP CANDIDATES are UNEMPLOYED

    These Candidates should not be ELECTED.

  3. That is the reason for the results for 2023 election.

    LATEST. POLL

    ABLP. 17 SEATS

    UPP. 00 SEAT ( 10 CANDIDATES LOSE DEPOSITS )

    DNA. 00 SEAT ( ALL CANDIDATES LOSE DEPOSITS )

    BARBUDA. 00. SEAT

    LANDSLIDE VICTORY FOR ABLP 2023 Election

    • ERIC THE IDIOT. YOU CONFESSED THAT YOUR POLL WAS CONDUCTED IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR. REPEAT MARCH OF 2022.
      YOUR OWN CONFESSION!

      YET YOU PROUDLY GAVE THE RESULT OF THE POLL THAT YOU CONFESSED WAS DONE IN MARCH 2022 IN NOVEMBER 2021.

      YOU ARE SUCH A FOOL!

      GASTON HAS NOT SHARED THE RESULT OF THE LAST POLL WITH YOU!

      ASK YOURSELF ONE QUESTION:

      WHY IS GASTON AFRAID TO CALL THE ELECTION?

      I AM WAITING FOR YOUR ANSWER! WHAT HAPPEN? WHY THE SILENCE

      • BOUNCE CHECKS bounce baby bounce like the shocks in the Wilmoth Daniel STRIPPER POLE BUS 🚌 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Change dem shocks, change dem locks. Bounce check bounce baby BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE

  4. Why UPP keep putting forward these UNQUALIFIED Persons ? They CANNOT represent ANTIGUA / BARBUDA on the world stage. DEM NO READY YET. UPP have done this for the past elections. AWFUL.

    • LOVELL IS A SPENT FORCE 🎯

      KING LYADD LOVELL LIMPY JOE IMF ROMANTIC RHYTHMS WADADLI POWER CAN’T ABST HOTEL RIPOFF ABIB COLLAPSER is the reason for the MASS EXODUS OF PEOPLE from the scalding “sunshine government” party that bun up Antigua people. NO ONE in their right mind wants to even APPEAR TO BE affiliated with Limpy Joe King Lyadd. The 2 potential leaders the UPP once had have long jumped off that sinking ship 🚢⚓🛳

  5. WHY ARE YOU SO AFRAID OF THE UPP.

    STUDY YOUR OWN SIDE! THE SIDE THAT WILL BE VOTED OUT OF OFFICE

    • CA-CAPA-TI-TAH 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

        No wonder Jonathan Joseph already told us what to do YOU DID IT BEFORE 8 YEARS AGO AND YOU MUST DO IT AGAIN.VOTE ABLP!!!🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🙌🙌🙌🙌

      • SO HAPPY YOU BROUGHT YOUR LIST. I WILL MATCH YOU POINT FOR POINT AND BEAT YOU. HERE GOES:

        1. THE SALE OF SHARES AT WIOC-ANOTHER GREAT UPP IDEA. BUT GASTON BROUGHT IN THE CHINESE CROOK WHO OWNS THE REST OF THE SHARES . THE CROOK THAT WAS KIDNAPPED FROM A HOTEL IN HONG KONG. HE HAS NOT BEEN SEEN SINCE.
        IS HE HIDING UNDER YOUR BED BUDDY BLOKE?

        2 BY ABOLISHING PERSONAL INCOME TAX HE MADE LIFE DIFFICULT FOR THOSE WHO SIT AT THE LOWER END OF THE ECONOMIC SPECTRUM.
        THE DAWG CHOKED ENTREPEUNEURSHIP BY BRINGING IN A TAX FOR THOSE WISHING TO START A BUSINESS. IT WAS THEREFORE BETTER TO GET A JOB THAN TO CREATE A JOB. WHY DID GASTON DO THAT?
        FURTHERMORE, GASTON HID THE TAX BY KEEPING GAS PRICES HIGH EVEN WHEN THE PRICE OF GAS WAS LOW ( WICKED MAN) SO EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE NOT PAYING INCOME TAX, YOU WERE STILL PAYING A TAX. A TAX IS A TAX IS A TAX-WHATEVER YOU CALL IT

        3. PROVIDED UPSCALE HOMES THAT COST TWICE AS MUCH AS THEY ARE WORTH. REMEMBER WHAT WESTON SAID: THEY BURNING MONEY
        BUDDY BLOKE – CAN YOU DENY THIS
        FURTHER MORE, WAS THIS PART OF THE 500 HOUSES IN 500 DAYS ( SHALL I SAY MORE)
        HOW MANY TIMES YOU HEAR PEOPLE ON THE RADIO BAWLING: ” I PAY MY MONEY AND I AM PAYING BACK THE BANK, BUT I DON’T GET MY HOUSE

        4PHL BARBUDA- PROMOTING ANOTHER FORM OF APARTHIED. BUFFER ZONES. GASTON BROWNE DON’T LIKE BLACK PEOPLE

        5 BOOBY ALLEY: WHERE MYSTERIES FIRES OCCUR ALMOST EVERY WEEKEND. IS IT A STRATEGY TO GET POOR BLACK OUT BY ANY MEANS POSSIBLE.
        WE ARE ALL SO SORRY TO HEAR THAT A POOR BLACK MAN LOST HIS LIFE IN ONE OF THESE FIRES. HMMMMM IS THIS SUSPICIOUS

        6 BUDDY BLOKE: YOU FORGOT POINT SIX . IS THIS ABLP MATHS!

        . 7 WHEN RENOVATING GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS, WAS A TENDERING PROCESS IMPLEMENTED OR WAS IT ONLY “COMRADES NEED APPLY.”
        WHAT ABOUT THE COST OVERUNS!
        THE NUGENT AVE. HOSPITAL : $ 20 MILLION SPENT ON THIS. WHO BENEFITTED? DID YOU BUDDY BLOKE? DID JUST ASKING OR SMH OR HMMM

        8, EXTENDED AND CREATED A ONE STOP AT PORT WHILE GIVING AWAY OUR PORT FOR 40 YEARS

        9 RELIEVED ALL CUSTOMERS OF ARREARS FOR APUA JUST BEFORE THE ELECTION. STRATEGY TAKEN FROM THE ABLP DIRTY BOOK OF TRICKS
        ” FOR YOUR EYES ONLY”

        10 IMPROVED ABS PROGRAMMING WHILE A RAPID TURNOVER OF STAFF TOOK PLACE
        HEY DIDN’T THE WORKERS STAGE A STRIKE LAST WEEK.
        TYPICAL ABLP: HATE WORKERS. ALWAYS TRYING TO SHAFT BLACK PEOPLE

        11 SERVES TRASH TO PEOPLE’S CHILDREN. THE MEALS ARE NOW FIT FOR DOGS ONLY. UNDER UPP IT WAS NUTRITIONAL FOR LEARNING. NOW UNDER ABLP – TRASH BIN LINERS

        12PAID THE IMF OFF IN FULL BY GETTING A HIGH INTEREST LOAN. EXPLAIN THE LOGIC IN THAT.

        13 WHERE: SHOW ME

        14 TRANSFORM ST JOHN’S HARBOUR: REALLY, BY CONTINUOUSLY DREDGING SEAWATER FOR EIGHT YEARS.
        TELL ME, WHO OWNS THE DREDGING COMPANY. PLEASE ANSWER THE QUESTION. IS IT THE CANINE WHO BOASTS ABOUT HOW RICH HE IS!
        ALSO, WITH ALL THE DREDGING, THE OASIS LINE HAD TO GO TO ST. KITTS BECAUSE THERE WAS A BIG STONE IN THE SEA

        15 STOLE A SECONDARY SCHOOL FROM AN AREA IN NEED OF A SECONDARY SCHOOL. LOOK AT THE CDB REPORT IT IS WRITTEN CLEAR AS DAY.

        THE UNIVERSITY COULD HAVE BEEN PLACED AT THE BASE- IN THE AREA WHERE THE INSTITUTES OF HIGHER EDUCATION ARE LOCATED. EG AUA, HOSPITALITY TRAINING INSTITUTE, ABIT. NO FORSIGHT BY THIS GOVERNMENT

        16 PITY THOSE VEHICLES HAVE TO DRIVE ON ROADS THAT ARE FULL OF POT HOLES

        17 TIME TO BUILD A NEW JAIL: NEW HOME OF THE ABLP CROOKS

        18 IMPROVED WATER SYSTEM. YOU ARE DELUSIONAL. TURN ON THE RADIO AND PEOPLE STILL BAWLING FOR WATER.
        BTW, WEREN’T WE SUPPOSE TO HAVE WATER RUNNING THROUGH THE PIPES IN 14 DAYS AFTER THE ELECTION IN 2014.

        19 TRENDSETTER TO MANAGE COVID.
        PERHAPS IF THEY HAD NOT TAKEN $ 20 PLUS MILLION FROM THE MBS
        ( THE MONEY THAT THE VISIONARY UPP HAD SAVED TO BE USED IN THE EVENT OF A PANDEMIC ) THEN PROPER MECHANISMS MIGHT HAVE BEEN PUT IN PLACE TO PREVENT THE DEATHS THAT HAD OCCURED

        20. THANK GOD THE UPP HAD OBTAINED THE LOAN FOR THAT SCHOOL. LET ME REFRESH YOUR MEMORY, THE UPP HAD OBTAINED MONEY FROM THE CDB FOR TWO SCHOOLS: THE 5 ISLANDS SCHOOL AND A SCHOOL IN POTTERS ( NOW THE NOVELLE RICHARDS SCHOOL) SO SORRY THE ABLP CANNOT CLAIM CREDIT

        21 THANK GOD THAT THE UPP BUILT THE STADIUM. PERHAPS YOU ARE NOT AWARE BUT THE PITCH ( ON WHICH THE RECENT MATCHES WERE PLAYED) HAS BEEN HEAVILY CRITIZED BY THE INTERNATIONAL MEDIA ( HOW EMBARRASSING)

        22 AND THE BANK CHARGES ARE EVEN HIGHER. OUR CORRESPONDING BANKING RELATIONSHIP IS NOW IN QUESTION
        WHAT IMPACT WILL THIS HAVE ON OUR ECONOMY. HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT OF THAT?

        23 IS THE GENTLEMAN STILL HIDING UNDER THE DESK? THE MAN RESPONSIBLE FOR DISPERSING THE MONEY .TEARS AND PLEAS FROM ANGRY DISTRAUGHT PARENTS WHO SOMETIMES HAVE TO REMORTGAGE THEIR HOMES TO KEEP THEIR CHILDREN IN SCHOOL BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT PAYING.
        REMEMBER THE DEBACLE WITH THE MARITIME UNIVERSITY

        24 IF YOU ARE GOING TO COPY, COPY PROPERLY.
        THE UPP HAD THE ” YES” PROGRAMME- THE YOUTH ENTREPRENEURIAL SCHEME.
        THE ABLP SCHEME IS A FAILURE? HOW MANY PROPLE HAVE ACTUALLY GOTTEN LOANS
        BY THE WAY, WHAT ABOUT THE SHARE CHARITY? ANY NEWS, PLEASE TELL

        25. HAS THE HAPI PROGRAMME HELPED ANY OF THE VICTIMS OF THE RECENT FIRES? I THINK NOT? THESE POOR VICTIMS HAVE TO RELY ON FRIENDS AND FAMILY. WHERE ART THOU, HAPI PROGRAMME

        BUDDY BLOKE, I HAVE DEMOLISHED ALL OF YOUR POINTS.
        WHEEL AND COME AGAIN

  7. What does Pearl “FOOTS” Quinn do for a living? Why did she leave the little bank job? Tell us FOOTS

  9. As qualified as the ABLP Candidates are WTH I can’t get no damn water for over a week. I am so disgusted with this water situation. This PM need to talk less and do more. Disgusting!!

    • Talk to the 🐍and ask him to give you the water he has stored on his 26 acres of wasted farmland. At least you sound like you would put it to good use.

      Imagine a wannabe Agriculture Minister who has water stored up and 26 acres of land and CAN’T PRODUCE anything!!!!!

  10. Mr. G-R-E-A-T-F-U-L left the “great” US of A to work for minimum wage at a radio station where a 🐍 is in charge and CENSORS and BANN people who have a different viewpoint.

    Decades in 🇺🇸 and come back to lap up crumbs and 🐍skin at a radio station with another freshwater yankee. Both OUT OF TOUCH WITH THE ANTIGUAN REALITY.

    • HAH ! OBSERVER GOT THE LAST LAUGH.
      MELFORD AND DARRELL GAVE AN INTERVIEWS TO OBSERVER OVER THE WEEKEND!
      YET- HURST HAS NOT BEEN GIVEN BACK HIS PRIME TIME SPOT.

      OBSERVER WON

  13. Sherfield Bowen is a lawyer, but does he still have the gun that he used to snuff out TESSA BARTHLEY? 🤔 De man so “bear fierce” dat he a run in de constituency way TESSA BARTHLEY R.I.P was born and raised. She is missed everyday, but in particular each time the anniversary of her death comes around, her birthday comes around, the funeral date comes around, her family and loved ones relive the nightmare caused by SHERFIELD BOWEN.

    1). BIRTHDAY
    2). DEATH anniversary

    A mother’s womb crying out for the child she carried 9 months and brought into this world…..taken out by married lawyer Bowen.

  15. Mr MP your party will win the election put I need you to start fixing the water problem on weekends households must have water on during the week.The little house problem you have with your people fix it please it does not look good on your behalf you ask for backing from your team you that is true but remember when you talk it also affect them as well

  16. Alister Thomas is the shadow minister of housing. Does he OWN a house? Where is the title deed for the house he currently lives in?

    • It certainly is not with old man Warner. His first wife got the land and a wooden house as part of the divorce settlement. She built the present house on the land. Would she have given her ex husband the house when she died when she had a daughter and grandson? You people should just buzz off. You are bunch of charlatans and lying fools. What else are you lying about.

      • Nope! You got it wrong. Tell your puppeteer to loosen your string 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

        All Alister Thomas needs to do is PRESENT PROOF OF HIS TITLE DEED🎯

        • Why should he? You want to confirm ownership, you go to the land registry office and stop peddling lies. Go get a life and stop being Gaston’s paid stooge.

          • Because he is running for office as Shadow Housing Minister, but does he actually OWN a house??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    • THE PM GAVE AWAY CONCESSIONS SO THAT HE COULD GET HIS HOUSE RENTED.
      TALK ABOUT CREATIVE ENRICHMENT
