UPP and BPM team up for ‘Relief and Recovery Rally’ at historic Thwaites Corner

10

REAL NEWS: The hype is coming to a climax for the United Progressive Party’s “Relief and Recovery” Rally slated for tonight, November 17, at the famous Thwaites Corner.

George Wehner, UPP Mobilization Officer, is inviting residents to come out to the traditional political stomping ground and hear the Candidates expound on the Party’s plans to move the country forward.

He says the rally will begin promptly at 8 p.m.; however, as is the norm, there will be a pre-show.

In addition to the UPP Candidates, Wehner says that representatives of the Barbuda People’s Movement (BPM) will be on the platform, since there are many issues affecting the sister-island.

Accordingly, he says this rally is not one to be missed.

In the meantime, the Mobilization Officer says that traffic along the lower section of All Saints Road, and the junctions at Thwaites Corner, will be closed this afternoon to accommodate setting up for the meeting.

Therefore, drivers are advised to plan their route to get back home this evening, since there will be traffic disruptions in that area.

Wehner says the rally will be broadcast via a wide cross-section of the Party’s social-media platforms, as well as on Progressive FM and Observer Radio.

  1. Not dem dey agen….Tarl Antigua kip far from the #UPPNEARGA and dem pie in the sky promises.

    I heard one of them criticising the increase in wages. I then asked that what sort of increase a UPP administration would have given. He became speechless. These people will say anything to try and pretending that they are offering hope but they very well know it cant. After you vote them in you have no chose but to stick with them for five years like a woman in an abusive relationship that cant leave because of wanting save face.

    ST. JOHN’S, Antigua, Dec. 24 — A magistrate on Wednesday charged an opposition legislator with murder in connection with a scuffle that led to the shooting death of a woman, the legislator’s lawyer said.

    The legislator, Sherfield Bowen, was formally charged with murdering Tessa Barthley, said his lawyer, Dane Hamilton. Mr. Bowen was not required to enter a plea.

    Ms. Barthley, 22, was shot in the neck on Dec. 16 at Mr. Bowen’s office. The police said Mr. Bowen’s gun went off during a scuffle. Ms. Barthley was put on life support but died Tuesday of a heart attack, hospital officials said.

    Mr. Bowen was a member of Parliament and a former member of Antigua’s governing party.

  6. Ref: INDIVIDUAL ON OBSERVER per Wilmoth Daniel

    “During the election, during the campaign coming up to the election, that particular individual did a wonderful job in promoting the UPP, so I was involved in terms of raising campaign funds. I gave that individual, because I felt he has done a wonderful job, $10,000. After the election he called me on the phone and he said that he is living in the east end. The house he’s living in is not in a good condition – leaking and everything. He wants to go to the bank as it were to borrow money to purchase a house and so on. So if I can help him with a similar amount. The individual is one who CAME TO MY HOME and I GAVE HIM ANOTHER $10,000 that I draw off a me bank book with my wife joint account and gave it to him. After months in the election, you know I’m involved in the real estate business, the individual asked me if I could let him get into the business. I said yes but the funny thing about it is that the banks would not turn over that kind of business to the individual. So I JOURNEYED TO THE BANK WITH THE INDIVIDUAL AND I OPENED AN ACCOUNT WITH $1,000 IN BOTH MY NAME AND THE INDIVIDUAL NAME so that he can start the real estate business. And you cant understand that YOU HAVE BEEN SO GOOD TO PEOPLE and people can get there TEARING YOU DOWN. You have done them nothing!But they just decide that they are going to deestroy Daniel and they are going to make sure that Daniel is not returned to St. Phillips South seat, but they are not God. God in heaven is the only one who can remove me and the people….

  7. Q: What really went wrong if you had such a relationship that you can even tun over business to this individual that you can give $10,000

    A: “…The behaviour of this person marvels me and THROUGHOUT MY WHOLE LIFE I HAVE NEVER MET A MORE EVIL, DECEITFUL and DISHONEST PERSON. I’ve never met a person like this person ***ALGERNON WATT***. I’ve never met a person like that. It’s the most DISHONEST, DECEIFTUL PERSON I’ve ever met in my whole life”

  8. “The ministers and high officials in Antigua and Barbuda implicated in the Ng/Ashe bribery scandal are said to be former prime minister and current MP, Baldwin Spencer, and former finance minister, Harold Lovell, now Political Leader of the Opposition United Progressive Party (UPP) opposition

    Included in the statements made by the FBI were references to at least three occasions on which Ashe was involved in the passage of large sums of money to Antigua politicians, including then Prime Minister Balwin Spencer and then Minister of Finance Harold Lovell. Those reference date back to June 26, 2012 and continued to July 26, 2014.

    The FBI agent testified that during that period there were at least two payments – US$100,000 and US$170,000 – to Spencer, and indication of an attempt to or a payment to Lovell, whom Ashe described as “a high school classmate of mine,” who “would facilitate establishment of offshore banks.”

    Antigua people afraid to sleep at night. A lot of Antiguans don’t have jobs. A Lot of Antiguans are making minimum wages and cannot afford to buy food and pay rent. Consider these.
    Who at this point cares about deceased Ashe? No Antiguan assets were involved. Get a life.
