Agree that Maureen needs to deliver cogent positions. Yes her *positions are admired* however regarding her position on Cadres poll, arrant nonsense.

I don’t want you to mash my bunions but to brush against my middle foot.
That is when and where the Cutting and Screaming will begin. No need to have machete just some KY and you would see the face of the god that Zoe wants you to worship as you lay spreadeagled and your cat spraddled on the miller’s grinding wheel.

wait miller wuh kind a foot is that?a middle foot! did you buy that off the block and how much did you pay for it. HA! HA! HA! it always knew you were phony as a two dollar bill. just stick to the machete they do a better job.

Can our resident politicos explain the following statement that the Cadres poll was designed to force the PM to call elections before they are constitutionally due?

Holder: Poll designed to force elections

Wednesday, 03 October 2012 12:25

CBC’s political analyst, Maureen Holder, has raised questions with an aspect of the latest Cadres poll which suggests a swing against the ruling Democratic Labour Party.

Ms Holder says some questions in the survey were not well thought out and did not inspire the Barbadian electorate to think.

She suggests the poll is intended to force government to call a general election before it is constitutionally due.

Ms Holder added that the poll is designed to promote an erosion of confidence in the DLP and the leadership of Prime Minister, Freundel Stuart.

For most of this year, Mr. Stuart has been a constant target of harsh criticism from the Director of Cadres, Peter Wickham, both on his radio talk show and in his newspaper column.

Wait, Onions and Miller got something going?

Now it all makes sense!

you would know good about singing for your supper.

@ Carson C. Cadogan | October 3, 2012 at 7:17 PM |

Don’t be envious of Onions, my dear Ass-on . There is enough of the miller’s capital asset to go around. Would try ac like in the old boy days of ‘fowlering’ just for another cackling DLP yardbird scalp on the miller’s elongated gun.
But for you, Ass-on, I don’t do mules. Too steep in shit you are; might just cause my political 12 gauge shotgun to backfire with rotten George St. crap in my face.

@ ac
What is your problem…What onions what…I got my own guppy to feed LOL

ac@onions

onions i should have known better to belive you have a guppy! i figure you were out there sharpening yuh machete,but i tink yuh attacking the wrong fish. she not easy. like you she knows the pen is mightier than the sword BTW when you and miller and the BLP planning to have the FIRE SALE before or after wunna CUT the public sector jobs,.i hear WICKham gonna have he PRIVITIZATION PLACARD ready fuh you and miller by election day. GOOD JOB BLP! WEINERS in every sense of the word!

@ ac & CCC:

Like disingenuous Maureen the moaner continue to attack the Messenger Peter instead of dealing with the content of the message delivered to the DLP ostriches.

The same messenger that delivered the same message in 2007 to OSA and the BLP.
Question to you ac, CCC, and moronic Maureen: Did the poll employ and significantly different techniques as those of 2007?

Is so we will listen to your criticisms. If the techniques are the same then go and do a mooning for Peter to see.

@david.

Wait i have never attack the mans poll why you so quick to drop me in this cesspool of insanity associated with a poll . you referred to his reputation and my opinion is that wickham would be prepared for any and all onslaught and criticism or his he off limits to to criticism i don;t think so . wikileaks being an example Wuh Damn. it is only an opinion. What is there to deal with.

The issue here is the conclusion which Holder arrived at about a poll being done to force a general election. Stay with the discussion if you can.

how she arrived at that conclusion that she could only say. no one can answer that but her,. in any event maybe there might be some inkling of truth. nevertheless the politicians should design a winning strategy taking nothing for granted.

————————————————

I havent read what else was said by Maureen Holder but the above analysis is accurate indeed from a neutral viewpoint it is a reasonable assessment.

oh shut up onions not you one got ears to the ground maureen not a dumb ass . she knows of what she speaks ..just check the timing of “ship a -hoy hoyos article and the poll two peas in a pod. . Timing and planning says a lot.

Classic case was that 50 – 50 nonsense…that even a first year entry Stats student from the Hill would punch hole in…..just what was she thinking? And being recorded on air at that….In the USA she would be fired for that incompetent outburst.

Is Peter Simmons and onion one and the same johnny?

mashup

I really believe that it is peter simmons who is singing for his supper.

Outside of Government these people are really unemployable. So they are smelling hell right now that the Barbados Labour Party is in opposition.

A lot of them are lawyers and not even good lawyers at that. If they represent you in Court you are sure to get lock to hell up.

A pack of buffoons.

@ David
It amazes me that you can describe Miss Holder’s comments on the Wickham poll as “arrant Nonsense ” when all she did was to state her views on an unscientific poll . As miss Holder and Anthony Wiggins a caller to her programme validly stated, there were several flaws in the methodology. That is a view they are entitled to hold . Indeed the analysis carried out by Miss Tamar Jordan lends support to their view that there are flaws .
Mr Wickham will find that his own credibility as a pollster is taking a hammering because the transparency of his agenda is clearly shown up in his role as a moderator . It cannot be a mere coincidence that many of the biases he expresses find similar expression in the results of his recent poll. Wickham has been on a virtual witch hunt of Prime Minister Mr Freundel Stuart for in excess of FOUR years, ie from the time he was Attorney General . it cannot be mere coincidence that his poll reflects the same kind of sentiment. Another example of the way he has used the poll to push his own agenda is presented in the Alexandra School response . Wickham has been a vocal opponent of the Commission Of Inquiry . Caswell Franklin says that he too is opposed to it but like a responsible commentator he took the time out to visit the Commission hearings and was therefore well qualified to comment on proceedings . I have never read anywhere or heard Wickham say that he either attended the hearings or read a transcript . Yet he is qualified to comment and provide the Nation with material for pushing its open anti – Government agenda. So it would seem that Wickham cannot be criticised; in fact it was quite puerile of him to begin his programme yesterday by belly aching like a child over the fact that he received criticism on the CBC call-in programme earlier in the morning . As a final comment i would recommend that Wickham conduct a poll on a single question : WHEN IS IT LIKELY THAT PM STUART WILL REPLY TO ANY OF THE PERSONAL ATTACKS HE MAKES AGAINST HIM ?

Folkes just remember the if the BLP is reelected they are going to cut the Health budget.

They will be a hefty charge for every visit to the Queen Elizibeth Hospital. Every piece of plaster they use in that institution will come with an invoice. Every piece of guage likewise, every trip by Ambulance to the Hospital will cost $150.00

Almost every service at the Hospital and Polyclinic will come with a hefty invoice.

If you vote for the BLP that is what you are voting for. A word to the wise is enough.

Does anyone recall that Wickham/Cadres was equally as vocal leading up to the last general election against Arthur and the BLP? In fact he was the butt of many jokes on the political platform Arthur, Lynch et al. Does any one recall how DLPites on this blog in 2007 were vigorously defending him when the Chapo/Boxill poll challenged his prediction of a 20:10 DLP victory? Unlike Wickham BU will not respond to the attacks coming from the DLP side. Wickham’s polls confirm what we sense from moving around Barbados. It appears Minister Donville Inniss is of the same mind as well based on his statement to the St. Peter Branch meeting last week.

the Cadres poll is questioned by a joker in Ms. Holder and that give way to all these jackass comments.

@watching
“It amazes me that you can describe Miss Holder’s comments on the Wickham poll as “arrant Nonsense ” when all she did was to state her views on an unscientific poll”

you would be right if it was me or you but Ms. Holder is passing herself off as a political analyst. so, it is “arrant Nonsense ” base on the fact that history has shown the polls by Cadres in Barbados to be spot on.

i like you do believe Mr. Wickham has been attacking the PM more so of late and while one can question the Wickham, you can’t question his polls and you can’t question his polls if you are a political nobody like Ms. Holder.

i understand she has to sing for her place at the table but if you going to allow persons to call you a political analyst, do so with facts. for God’s sake this woman said on national radio that poll are not scientific but the company carry out a poll in the last election with the same methodology and nailed the results but she come with nothing but her feelings as a political analyst and think someone should follow her shite talk. give me a break.

@ ac
…ears to the ground is not empirical evidence…more like conjecture.
ac @ onions
LOLwuh dats the same evidence you espoused over the last months on BU in many of your comments as proof or rationale

@watching

You are muddying the issue. In one instance we have a pollster who published his methodology of polls conducted over several elections – at home and abroad – which was dismissed summarily by Holder without any coherent scientific narrative. In the other case we had Wickham who was perhaps being mischievous but cited the basis for which he drew his conclusion – based on Stuart’s utterance directed at his poll.

…and a budding poet of course… LOL..Oh yes oh yes..

@ David..
There is no ” muddying ” of any issues . The single issue expressed here is the professionalism or lack of professionalism of a pollster who has to resort to a ” strident MO ” to support his conclusions and in the process expresses a personal dislike for his favourite target . YOU ARE MUDDYING THE ISSUES !
