    • ANR is very popular @ I see, simply because they allow all sides of arguments and debates to be aired.

      If you don’t like balanced viewpoints then stick with government mouthpieces like ABS and the Gaston Browne radio show.

      MORE INDEPENDENT POWER TO ONE AND ALL AT ANTIGUA NEWSROOM 👍

        Have you ever heard of a government in past providing physiotherapy at a private institution for its inmates free of cost.
        That is the Gaston Browne government you so hate. They show compassion to even a convicted criminal. I just hope he can walk again one day

    • @sideline
      We have therapy bills from NSA this wasn’t paid for by the state so please stop misleading the crowd you imbecile

  2. By the way the state provides Physiotherapy treatment at NSA Medical Central for him every week. A luxury that was not provided before. 1735 is a place where criminals meet criminals and yes, they are trying to prove to one another who’s the toughest. Well, this is one of the results of that. If you can’t do the time don’t do the crime.
