Unless we are all totally blind, the writing is clearly on the wall. the 'xxxxy' is clearly in bed with dogs. Inevitably, he is now flea-infected. He deliberately gave his new canine friends the critical time needed to right the wrongs at the WPP; he openly conspired with this canine friends to poor scorn on us by appointing a Cabinet group to rubberstamp the x.x. corruption allegedly associated with the WPP. He rashly and fully endorsed the appointment of a xxxer as the nation's new Commissioner of Information. In return, finally... finally.... City xxxx now has paved roads!

Tenman,just what is your position on the darn issue,you do or you do not agree that Gaston Browne is protecting criminals? If you say it's illegal to even attempt to bribe a public official,then you must also say it's illegal or criminal for a public official to accept a bribe. And since it was the members of the opposing party(the Antigua Labor Party)who were trying to make the case the engines are old, It's fair to assume that the individual who paid the bribe is a member of the same party and that Gaston also knows who it is,correct? In wilmoth Daniel's story, he did not accept the bribe offered to him ,but there should have been some kind of investigation to get to the bottom of it and,if necessary, punishment should have been meted out.

Fred and tenman,I don't understand why you guys would even try to raise the issue about "paid lobbyist" in this case when the word "lobbyist"refer s to the person who is engaged in the activity of swaying another-not the person who is being swayed.In other words, the person who is offering or paying money to the public officials to gain his influence is the lobbyist.That just destroyed your dumb argument,huh? Gaston Browne's statement carries the sense that these public officials were given money(a bribe)in exchange for a dishonest claim.

SlyThatGuy,
Quote:

when you have the chance look up the definition of a paid lobbyist or a paid consultant for a political party or business. In essence its normal to hear them described as paid mercenaries or **. The conduct described by the ALP chairman at worst is immoral. SlyThatGuy, I need not tell you its illegal to even attempt to bribe a public official.

@SkyThatGuy. A paid mercenary as said my Gaston is not a bribe which is illegal. Anyone could peddle information privately for a fee. It does not include any public officials who were bribed unlike Daniel who said that his colleague tried to bribe him to buy a building using public resources for a kickback. Let us not fool the public.

**SlyThatGuy** » 2012-07-28 09:36

Gaston Browne has done remarkably well in saying at this time he has no interest in challenging for the party's leadership, because based on what I know about him( his willingness to cover up for ALP members he knows took bribes),I would never support his candidacy for Prime Minister nor any other official public duty. The exposure of his cover-up makes him appear as a dishonest person,and that's why I do not consider him as a good candidate for the job. On the other hand,I don't believe that Robin Yearwood is the best candidate for the job for this reason: He does not seem to be the kind of person that would zealously represent the economic interest of the people. So let's just not put him there.

**Jumbee Picknee** » 2012-07-27 23:21

You comment's are pertinent, on point and true to the matter. I doubt very much that you reside permanently in Our Nation.

**Ian Best** » 2012-07-27 19:00

@ Jimmy. Your post is hilarious. Molwyn humble ? A man without xxtegxxxy, an unxxxxxxous man to lead labour party ? Then again, no one should expect better from a dunce like Jimmy.

**Anonymous** » 2012-07-27 18:55

These guys want to lead but have no conviction to lead. You are either running for the leadership or you are not. No comment cannot be a satisfactory answer. If a few months before a convention and Molwyn does not have the integrity to say if he is running then no one should take him seriously. Go Robin.

**Wadadli Blogger** » 2012-07-27 15:40

Well atleast Robin have a set of round things that only men are born with ... While Gaston and Molwyn are still afraid of Lester and his fanatic supporters ... both of them are gonna challenge ... they are just afraid to say so right now ... they are still hoping for Lester's approval.

I will tell them now they better hope for Asot's approval ... because whoever he supports will likely be the one the executives and party members support at the convention!!!

It looks like Lester right now!!!

**Cool Ruler** » 2012-07-27 15:39

Tenman the ALP disbanded their youth group while the UPP ignore theirs. While they both are guilty of not maintaining vibrant youth organizations, the ALP disbanded theirs because the old guard was of the view that the youth were advocating for Brown and while most were not on the delegate list to vote it was a psychological blow to Brown by disbanding a group within the ALP who was advocating for Brown as leader.

One of the highlight that often comes to my attention in this blog room is all of us can read but it appears that some of us have difficulty understanding what we read, or some of us are just in the habbit of character asassination of individual people's character. When this is done, i would really like to know what do you think you have accomplished from this practice?

**fedr** » 2012-07-27 13:54

Look people if you're trying to recoup the good old days by bringing back these old worn out fellas your utopia will continue till you pass. Molwyn, Yearwood, Lester these fellas should have retired four years ago and start the rebuilding of the party. This shows the vision these guys have for the country. What new wil these fellas bring? Where are the new blood, buds of the party. In this high tech age we going back to dinosaurs (no disrespect). This is why I do not support this party. I see too many fellas who handles the government as their private business. Too many who use their office to gather great wealth for their friends and cronies. It is a sad situation all around for the present party cannot has also sunk to that level. Hence my call for these old ideas, hands, feet, eyes, tongues to be put on the side as new fuel is injected to put aright our country's affairs.

**JP Farnsworth** » 2012-07-27 12:52

I want to throw my hat in the ring too! Why the heck not? If they can do it so can I. Actually I'm going to keep my hat on and run as independent.
It's the same tired old faces year after year.

**Jimmy** » 2012-07-27 12:31

It seems to me that you are true to your name "Miss taken"! Robin posted his intention on FACEBOOK of all places! Just a question, you think Robin meant it to be a secret? You guys need to raise your IQ before looking to embar** yourselves with these kinds of posts!

Instead of this post, you should have called Robin and suggested he make his posting official, instead of posting and hiding! I personally think that it's Lester he hiding from!

Poor (not literally) Robin! You think he spent to much time with the goats?

**Bishop Receipt** » 2012-07-27 12:16

Gaston did speak for himself...he said he's not interested to run for leader at this time. It's Maulwyn who says "no comment"!

Then poor Robin hiding from comment? What a big joke! How can you put yourself forward for Leadership, then hide when asked to comment?

Typical Robin...when he's in front of Lester he is all praise for Lester - then behind Lester's back, he xxxing him to everybody! Same thing he doing with Asot...all nice in front of his face then xxxng Asot behind his back!

By the way, if you want to find Robin, check his goat pen behind his house!

**Miss Taken** » 2012-07-27 11:44

This is another attempt of Gaston to stay relevant. Why would Gaston jump the broom and make an "official" announcement of a Senior Member of the ALP without there approval? Gaston, did Mr. Yearwood ask you to announce this? Were you given his permission to do so to the media outlets? Another, way for Gaston to get his loony mug in the paper.

**Anu** » 2012-07-27 10:53

If Yearwood wants to challenge the leadership at the next convention, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. That's democracy. The only problem i have is when Gaston continue to make speculative statements about other ALP representative in reference to leadership. No part in the article stated that Molwyn Joseph told the party or executive of his intentions. Gaston keeps bringing second hand information to the media and this in my opinion is not right. It only stirs up confussion. Molwyn is capable of speaking for himself if he so desire to challenge the leadership. Gaston needs to stop his nonsense and speak for himself.

**tenman** » 2012-07-27 10:10

Cool Ruler, help me understand, what impact would the youth arm have if they were not disbanded? Do not recall them being very large in number. We tend to have a problem with getting persons to participate. My memory of even the UPP youth arm was that you did not have to be a member of the party and we were considered insignificant by the party itself since up to the time I was there (just prior to the 1999 elections) they did not have more than twenty members. I recall attending meetings at the latter stage when only about six persons would show up. Is it even still in existence?

**marco polo** » 2012-07-27 09:05

Doomed to rot in the fetid squalor of your corrupt past.... All of you....

**Ian Best** » 2012-07-27 08:31

Why no comment. Molwyn is either running or he is not. This shows how xexexxixe the boy is. He is the most focal on all issues but he is too afraid or dxx to confirm his leadership intentions. He could never get my support.

Robin all the way..Molwyn never, never, never. Robin is real but Molwyn is a big fake, a xxx. Take off Molwyn's mask and you will see all the nastiness.

**Tomas** » 2012-07-27 07:47

The ALP leadership race is turning out to be an exercise in real democracy. It is inportant that the next government in 2014, which will be the ALP, show that it has an open and transparent approach towards leadership selection. I am comfortable with this kind of competition, since it only strengthen the present ALP which is the government in waiting. Should the Hon lester Bird decide to bow out gracefully, then I am confident that Robin Yearwood has the political maturity, experience and confidence to lead his party to victory, and return economic growth and prosperity to Antigua & Barbuda.

**Cool Ruler** » 2012-07-27 07:39

Is Brown making a strategic move, or is it one bitten twice shy? He knows what was done to him during the last convention when the youth arm was disbanded and he never saw the list of delegates until the morning of the event. Everyone knows that the same tricks will be played on Robin by the geriatric albatross that was used on both St. Luce and Gaston. The difference this time is Gaston will be waiting in the wings hoping the old fox honors his agreement with him to pass the baton over to him without a fight just merely rubberstamped with the Foxes blessing.

**Jimmy** » 2012-07-27 07:39

Robin needs to lose weight! Maulwyn has my support! Lester would be my choice, but he is clearly out of it!

Maulwyn is a People's Person...just ask any of his constituents! A humble man...that's Maulwyn!

**Percy** » 2012-07-27 07:00

I think that Robin is best to lead the ALP!

I think he needs to come to the Media and confirm that!

In the mean time Lester should have been contacted for a comment!

When your closest ally (Robin) challenges you, it is sending a signal that those closest to you have lost confidence in you...time for you to go!

**Hmmmm** » 2012-07-27 06:26

No comment??? I have to think twice and wonder what the is going? are these persons being truthful...when persons who are ususally soo vocal has "NO COMMENT".
