UPP cancels Thursday night’s rally in Bolans

due to weather conditions ahead of storm

 

Tonight’s Rally at the Bolans Playing Field, hosted by the United Progressive Party (UPP), has been canceled due to the already inclement weather ahead of Tropical Storm Tammy.

 

The Party’s Leadership and its candidate for St. Mary’s South, Kelvin “Shugy” Simon, have agreed that safety must be the priority, and therefore have cancelled their much-anticipated final public meeting before next Tuesday’s by-election.

 

After the storm, the UPP will assess the situation and advise supporters of any plans for public gatherings ahead of the October 24 poll.

 

Meanwhile, it is possible that, by the time Tammy reaches Antigua and Barbuda tomorrow, Friday, October 20, the storm could have been upgraded to hurricane status.

 

Therefore, the UPP is encouraging all residents to use today, Thursday, October 19, to make preparations for the safety and security of their families, homes, and businesses – while electricity and, possibly, water services are still available.

 

The Party also encourages those persons who live in low-lying and flood-prone areas to secure their properties as far as possible and make plans for possible evacuation. This appeal is especially aimed at families living in the West Palm Beach area of Bolans; the Upper Fort Road and Yorks communities; Bendals and Bathlodge; Perry Bay; and other vulnerable neighbourhoods in the Rural West and Rural South constituencies.

 

In the meantime, the Party exhorts all residents to be careful, to be safe, to stay off the roads during the storm, and to follow the instructions of the agencies in charge of operations.

  1. please let the STROKE VICTIM rest! Stop using him for CHEAP POLITICAL PAPPYSHOW theatrics!

    • Like HOW GASTON MADE LESTER REST IN HIS BED AND HIDE AWAY TO ENABLE HIM TO WIN HIS SEAT.

      NO SAR, STROKE PATIENTS ARE TO BE KEPT ACTIVE. POOR YOU, YOU LACK (like all other minions) THE BASICS 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

      • Sir Lester Bird didn’t suffer from any stroke! The COMEBACK KID was certainly out in public campaigning with his trusted driver in his BLACK JEEP.

        Dragging Hilson Baptiste from his SICK STROKE BED to “endorse” a LIAR, FRAUD, DISHONEST, FREQUENT FLYER, PARTY ANIMAL is a low-life move!!

        Not even the seasoned rice fella who uttered threatening words against Judge BLENMAN can help the preacherman turned CARNIVAL MASCOT FETE PIMP!

        Blood on UPP hands ✋️ for that inhumane use and abuse of a STROKE PATIENT!

        • The sad thing about you useless idiots/ nincompoops is that YOU WILL HEAR PM GASTON BROWN OUT OF HIS OWN MOUTH SAY THINGS LIKE HE ASKED JOEY JOHN TO HIDE LESTER BIRD SO THAT HIS ILLNESS IS NOT KNOWN, HE SAID OUT OF HIS MOUTH THAT HE TRANSFERRED VOTERS IN VARIOUS CONSTITUENCIES TO ENABLE HIS COLLEAGUES TO WIN THEIR SEATS, i.e. TO STEAL THE ELECTION SO THAT UPP WHO WAS EXPECTED TO WIN DIDNT!!!!
          YOU GUYS DEFEND THE INDEFENSIBLE, even IN THE FACE OF FACTS.
          YOU IGNORANT USELESS IDIOTS.
