REAL NEWS: A by-election will be held in the constituency of St. Mary’s South – in
spite of the House Speaker’s refusal to accept the resignation of
former MP Kelvin “Shugy” Simon – says a confident Leon Chaku
Symister, the United Progressive Party’s spokesperson on legal
issues.
It is now just over two weeks since Simon resigned from the House,
and Symister says the clock is ticking and the Party is counting down
the days.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne and his Cabinet have pointed out
that the case to determine Simon’s eligibility to run in the January
18 polls is still pending. In spite of Simon’s resignation, the claimant
has not dropped the case, they note.
To some persons, this suggests that no date for a by-election can be
set before the court matter – due to be heard in July – is concluded.
However, Symister is confident that the by-election will be held in
early October, if not before, since Wednesday, June 21, marked 15
days since the Speaker received Simon’s resignation letter.
Because of the 120-day timeframe allowed for a by-election,
Symister says the Government seems to be playing all kinds of
games. But he says the most critical part of the electoral process is
when the Governor-General issues the Writ of Election.
Meanwhile, following his revelation at a town-hall meeting in St.
Mary’s South on Monday night, attorney Harold Lovell has
confirmed that the judge on the Simon case has recused himself,
allowing the trial to go forward judiciously.

How was the MARCH / PROTEST organized by the UPP last Thursday ( June 22nd 2023 ). Since I did not hear about it. I can conclude that it was a disaster.

Typical Labourite. Carn count. Get out ya ball frame! Still counting Gaston Browne 14 days for the return of water.
Get ready for the buy-election. You go really SYH. Lookah blow in Samantha tail!!!
It is time to remove these OLD FARTS from around the UPP. They have been giving bad advice for years. These OLD FARTS such as CHAKU , LOVELL , CHARLES TABOR , GISEL ISAAC and STUPID BRIXTONIAN are totally responsible for the DEMISE of the UPP.
By the way I love how DAVE LESTER PAYNE of Observer Radio destroyed D GISEL Isaac about sending money to UKRAIN . Dave said “ Sell the Super Yacht and UKRAIN NAR GET ANY MONEY “
Jackie Quinn min too warn larf when Chaku Waku false teeth drop out 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
You should be happy that UPP have old facts around them. That’s not what you want, so why are you complaining? Your party has 4 Old Farts with an accumulated age of 334 years. The 18th Candidate owns 85 of those.
