REAL NEWS: Prime Minister Gaston Browne appears to have an obsession with
the United Progressive Party (UPP) candidate for St. Mary’s South, Kelvin “Shugy” Simon, and some critics say they find it to be sick and peculiar.
On Saturday, September 23, the prime minister posted on his Facebook page about seven photos of Simon at various locations in Antigua and overseas.
In his caption, Browne accused the former MP of entering politics to promote himself, and claimed “that Simon immediately after winning the seat in January prioritized braffing and flossing, abandoning the people.”
Browne was also critical of the UPP candidate’s resignation, saying, “To add insult to injury, he abandoned his parliamentary seat by resigning.”
During the UPP rally in Urlings last Thursday, September 21, Simon referred to Browne’s allegations and noted that this is not the first time he is making such accusations.
In setting the record straight, Simon told his audience that the salary of an opposition MP is $4,500 a month plus traveling and constituency allowances – all taxable income.
Simon says that his earnings before politics were well above what he is now making, so the prime minister’s claims are ludicrous.
He notes that no one can get rich from being in politics alone; and those who enter do so either for the love of country and people – or to engage in side deals to become rich, like Browne has admonished his ministers to do.
Meanwhile, Browne’s critics say he would be better off concentrating on his work – including providing regular pipe-borne water – than continuing his unhealthy obsession with Simon’s appearance and activities and ranting on social media.

Don’t worry about the insults from the ABLP. You should wear them like a BADGE of honour.
Their insults your Honourable Kelvin Shugy Simon should bounce off you. The government knows and understands that you are a REAL threat to retaining St Mary’s South again.
Treat the ABLP insults like a food that nourishes, strengthens and makes you more determined to win once more.
SHUGY SHUGY SHUGY …
@BRIXTONIAN
Hope you will not hide after the election results in October 2023
My latest polling in St.Mary’s South …DWAYNE GEORGE is leading SHUGY by 12 points.
BRIXTONIAN this will be a BLOW OUT / LANDSLIDE victory for DWAYNE GEORGE and ABLP.
A man’s personal lifestyle is his business not my concern,but for Shuggy to suggest politics can make you rich 🤑 is ridiculous,Brown paper bag,kick backs,Bribes and the list goes on,entering politics for the love of people and to serve,you man what have you been smoking,just enjoy the ride and stop pretending you don’t know how it works 😀
” politics can make you rich ” Is this why Shugy resigned bcuz of wrong doings and then decided to re-enter??
@ Bluddy Bloke, just ask Gaston Browne about politics ‘making you rich’. Especially after his first two terms of office.
No other politician has made more money than the current incumbent.
Have you been living under a rock, or on Mars in the last 8 years … seems so to me!
@BRIXTONIAN
If this was about anyone from ABLP. You would be running your stupid mouth. Tell SHUGY to repent and go back to His Family. How can you leave your wife with the baby because She put on weight after child birth.
BRIXTONIAN is the BIGGEST HYPOCRITE in Antigua. UPP does not trust you because you jumped ship. Continue singing for your supper.
Always remember @ GILES:
“He that is without ‘sin’, caste the first stone …”
Me never know that you so perfect boss!
Brixtonian taking on the GASTONITES, the ACOLYTES and the ABLP WORSHIPPERS each and every day.
Where in that piece that you read did Mr. Simon say that politics can make you rich? You are really indoctrinated by Birdism. That’s just what is done on ABS and any of their controlled media. Dishonesty to the core.
Isn’t the Carnival Committee sending people to Miami Carnival using taxpayers money?
Didn’t Shugy spend his own money to go to St. Kitts?
Isn’t Darryl Matthew a part of Mist?
Dont we promote Carnival as a country? So we promote a product and lifestyle and then criticise people for patronizing and embodying the product. What’s wrong if Shugy went to St. Kitts for the Music Festival? The Prime Minister and his goons are just a bunch of desperate hypocrites.
Gaston Browne, bark all you want, A Shugy, Shugy Shugy- all the way on Election Day.
Bring out the pooper scoopers the tawp dog is shitting in his pants.
Voting Kelvin Shugy Simon.
St. Marys South for Shugy , Shugy , Shugy UPP , you got this!!

APOSTLE SHUGY SIMON OF THE NAZARENE CHURCH is a FETE BOY. Turned his back on God. Gone from being a shepherd to a wolf.
Half-naked Jamming wid insane carnival. Seen in St. Kitts wit 3 guys that talk like “Pinocchio”
APOSTLE SHUGY have no time fu God, no time fu people. All SHUGY SIMON kay bout FETE FETE FETE FETE FETE FETE FETE
That’s what the First Lady likes to see and the husband just cannot stand it. If he look way too lang,he a wan dead man. The guy has the appeal that she craves and I believe that the the husband has it too; remember what is said about him.
Shugs how much uno spend on the young women in your constituency for pum pum?
The mindset and out and out IGNORANCE of the ABLP acolytes just astounds and amazes me. BTW @ Neighbourhood Watch, I like to think that I have some sort of intelligence, but what is a ‘pum pum?
IS IT SOME KIND OF FRUIT, DRINK OR ABLP CHASING GAME? 😁
@BRIXTONIAN

Are you telling us that Gaston doesn’t trust the likes of Colin Browne straight through to Dwayne George? Gaston himself, said it. They quickly realized that there were no joy rides in the UPP so they made the leap to the lawless organization.
Evidently mr. simon needs the mp salary to keep up his PARTY LIFESTYLE! 6 months of nothing but partying from him. only now he is scrambling to “appear” interested in the constituency. shame on him!!
” Research has revealed that an apparent ‘Divine Call’ to be ‘an Apostle of God,’ has seen ‘Kelvin ‘Shugy’ Simon,’ attending an overseas ‘Seminary.’ Reportedly a ‘Student of Theology,’”
Well atleast we know what Shuggy is about. Glaston Browne what about you and your many kip woman dem some of which are rewarded with tax payers money with you placing them on boards. Give me a break.
He left he wife because she got fat after she had his child
Where is Samantha’s husband? Is it the fat that prevented her from getting one?
push back is right. dats all shoogy do during carnival in a piece a shorts and no shirt…..de boy whine and grind behind every soca band. english harbour or henessy instead a water.

@Brixtonian Girl do you know that Kelvin Simon flew all the way to Canda for his sister wedding? You think is CONSTITUENCY ALLOWANCE paid for that? After all, the people have NOT received any benefit from the $2,000 MONTHLY CONSTITUENCY ALLOWANCE.
6 months x $2,000= $12,000.00.
What has Mr. Simon used that $12,000.00 for in the consituency for the 6 months he sat his tiny ass in parliament??
Why fly to Canda to support an overseas marriage when he ignore his own MARRIAGE VOWS here in Antigua??? Can’t u see the little boy is a hypocrite???
It’s no longer til death do us part. right now it’s til FETE do us part…..for Mr. Simon. People saying lovell told him to move back in with his wife during the campaign and he did so. but as soon as election over, Mr. Simon moved back out. What you think about such CHARACTER trait?
As a Bible believer Mr. Simon please remember that….
“The Lord God of Israel says, “I hate divorce. And I hate people who do cruel things as easily as they put on clothes,” says the Lord” Malachi 2:16
Nice try at OBFUSCATION @ Really, now do the same sort of research pursuing Prime Minister Gaston Browne, and you’ll find a list that not only go back months, but for TWO terms in office.
STOP BEING SELECTIVE ABOUT THE HONOURABLE KELVIN SHUGY SIMON AND DIG DEEP INTO GASTON BROWNE’S DEALINGS.
No, I didn’t think so!
You’ll find a lot worse on Gaston you MYOPIC MANCHILD!
Shuggy transparent with what he does. Glaston Clown and his ALP men al have a set a kip women that they keep under wraps but they pretend to be all men with the virtues our hypocritical society wants. Who knows maybe Shuggy unknowingly wine up pon one ah Glaston Clown keepers during carnival and that to has him bex ah r##s.
Shuggy is entitled to his PRIVATE life, his marriage and personal time is his own business, some of these comments are just not worth an opinion. Ask yourselves why someone is passionate about making right and looking after the people and country.. can you do better? Party all you like Kelvin – the P.m is not exactly professional is he.. what a joke trying to attempt to discredit you..
WOOOW Antigua nasty bad when it comes too Politics what all the Degrade for all of us are ANTIGUANS .DAMN you People need too STOP IT.
This will only stop when there’s accountability, transparency and honesty returns into our political system.
Antiguans fed up with the lack of care and good governance @ Miss labour – can you NOT see this?
Would u want your daughter husband to ABANDON her if she put on some post partum weight????
What about your sister? Should your father have left your mother after she had you and gained some weight???
Shugy is SHALLOW and SELFISH ARROGANT PRICK!!! Only cares about himself.
