@David/BU … Oh, I agree Duguid does need to apologies, but so does Inniss for his continued taunting insult, especially since he started it, and possibly many others in the house that day too. AS I said fair is fair, and regardless of which party I may support, I call a spade a spade and make no apologies about it.

@Gabriel Tackle … Thanks and points taken … I am well aware of Abed being well ousted by (now) Senator De Peiza by the DLP’s High Command, furthermore we (in Ch. Ch. West) are well aware that it is Sen. De Peiza project on-going in Golf Club Road, which has drawn out to the point that we wonder if it was really a training ground for the MTW’s Novice Employees the length of time it has taken (not to mention helping the Employment Figures), yet we have been inconvenience no end – vehicles well shaken, not stirred – and now false starts this week to start the resurfacing … in any event it is a lame attempt to focus on a certain part of the constituency and we are also aware that said Abed lives at the east end of said road. i.e. gimmicks, but cannot erase the sleeping PM and the Eager 11.

David of BU,

Since you so concerned…..why don’t you apologise for Dr Duigid ?

Then your party can come out looking good.

Okay, Duguid has apologised publically and properly, however Inniss says nothing – no comment, when contacted by the media, even though we all know what he said, including his insult to the Duguid family … so who is the mature one here?

Donville Inniss should ALSO apologise!

If Dobad had anything good inside him, he would never have reacted this way.

But that is the nasty way of the Barbados Labour Party members. With them it is Garbage in and Garbage out. as simple as that

Even on this blog they are always ready to curse everyone. So this is nothing new for them. And the truth upsets them no end.

What apology, especially when it means nothing. Given half a chance he would do it again.

This is how Baajans will remember William Duguid forever.

A dentist with a dirty mouth.

After reading most of the comments on here, it is obvious that most of you have little intelligence. Why do I say this? Let me count the ways. Most of you are so politically stoned that you argue and argue this issue to death. I have read some of the most insane asinine comments ever. On one side the Dees among you have magnified Duguid’s outburst, taking no consideration for the provocation of Inniss’ nasty comments concerning the man’s family. None of you on here, if you had any decency or love for your family, would have sat and not comment on your family being publicly assassinated. But you try to blind side this and refer only to Inniss also calling Duguid “a fat slob”. How stupid and cowardly of all of you.

Next thing, the Bees on here try to defend Duguid by reminding us about Estwick’s gun tirades as if what Duguid said was fades in comparison.

It is clear that Barbados is on a serious decline. We have become the stupid of the Caribbean. We are no longer literate that is for sure. We have become the joke of the Caribbean, because of blogs such as these that offer the world a free look in to the insane minds of some of the citizens of Barbados. Shame on you all.

When the world reads this post, I ask you not to judge us all based on the idiots in here. There are a few of us, still around that have healthy brain cells.

All you did is waste peoples time reading the nonsense you just wrote.

Find something better to do with your time next Friday afternoon.

David of BU,

You have caused all this cross talk on this issue to continue. If you had honestly indicated the meaning of the words used ( fat slob / scunt) the passions of your contributions would not have become so inflamed.

But all you are doing is to keep pointing your fingers at Donville Inniss.

How come when Captain Sawyer sang ..”.I like them BIG , FAT and THICK ” you never called on Captain Sawyer to apologise ?

Donville Inniss called Dr. Duigid a ” FAT SLOB ”
A slob means a sloven person.

What is the meaning of SCUNT ?

Waiting on your answer David of BU ?

Interesting Coincidence – William Duguid And Persons Making Death Threats Used The Same IP Internet Number A Year Apart

We’re Doing Some IP Research…

Hi folks. As you will see when we post the article after this one, the death threats against Adrian Loveridge and others continue – so we are doing some research into the internet source of the death threats and look at the amazing coincidence that we found about IP Number 72.22.157.140…

The IP number was originally used by Dr. Duguid of the BLP when he first set up the official BLP Blog and asked us and our readers for our opinions. That was back in May of 2006.

Then over a year later in August of 2007, the folks who run BFPE blog who also made death threats against Adrian Loveridge and others used the same IP number as Dr. Duguid.

Thanks David of BU…..your last comment has caused me relax (my anti – BLP comments) against you.

Thanks for joining the ranks of the DEMS !

You understand why Barbados need the DEMS in power….we choose our words carefully.

Good to hear Duguid apologize. We need to hear Inniss next now that Duguid has fingered him for provocation.

GUARDIAN OF THE SANE !!!!

YOU are INSANE
INSANE IN THE MEMBRANE

S T F U

Here is Duguid’s apology!

Well done.

Apology by Dr. William Dugiud, MP

The Parliament of Barbados, the third oldest in the commonwealth, has a rich and proud heritage. The Barbados Labour Party ha
s steadfastly followed our parliament’s noble traditions and over the years we have distinguished ourselves by our exemplary conduct as Members of Parliament.

On Tuesday 20 November, I fell far short of those traditions and standards. During that sitting, I made an outburst which I instantly regretted, and for which I now humbly apologize to my constituents and to the wider Barbadian public.

That outburst was the result of the most grievous of provocations which came from the mouth of a Democratic Labour Party parliamentarian. It would be improper of me to repeat the insulting words used, but I will say that they constituted the gravest possible insult to my wife and to my children.

Notwithstanding that, I now humbly apologize to my constituents and to the wider Barbadian public. No matter the provocation, I am certain they must all be disappointed in me.

I intend to tender a similar apology to the Parliament on the occasion of its next sitting.

Think before you speak, I guess he never heard of that.

@Telling it like it is

If Inniss does a stroll through Facebook he may think seriously about an apology based on the comments from Barbadians. If he SAID what he is accused of he should apologize because he said it and not because it wasn’t broadcast. What is difficult to understand?

If Inniss made a comment that is insulting and hurtful to Duguid’s wife and children he should apologize.

If he called Duguid “a fat slob” he should apologise.

There is a saying in Canada for circumstances like this. “Take it outside”

Street thug behaviour should be taken to the street and blood left on the pavement.

I believe that when Erskine Sandiford told the people in Parliament to LIKE IT OR LUMP IT that that is really the worst thing ever said in parliament and he was a Prime Minister.
He never apologized but yuh know what –it is too late for him to apologize—One Republic sang that song –Too late to ‘pologize,

ONE REPUBLIC – APOLOGIZE LYRICS
I’m holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I’m hearing what you say
But I just can’t make a sound

You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that you’re sorry
Didn’t think I’d turn around and say

That it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
Too late, oh

I’d take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
But it’s nothing new, yeah yeah

I loved you with a fire red, now it’s turning blue
And you say sorry like the angel
Heaven let me think was you
But I’m afraid

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late, whoa whoa

It’s too late to apologize, it’s too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, it’s too late

I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah, too late
I said it’s too late to apologize, yeah, too late

I’m holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground

If the Dem Jack Asses would only play along and apologize with an even better statement, they would beat the Arthur-Mottley machinery at their own game …

Duguid did the right thing in apologizing. That is now behind him.

Inniss also needs to apologize. I could be wrong but I am hearing in the video “Yuh big fat slobby idiot”.

Is this how honorable members address each other in the Parliament?

B’dos is a place filled with many fat people who are voters. Inniss need only speak to the Prof from ‘the other place’ who has almost been in the wilderness on this one.

Is this one of the reasons politics doesn’t seem to always attract the brightest and honest of minds?

@DR. THE HONOURABLE

You may want to read the following to accurately portray the context of Sir Lloyd’s reference to like it or lump it.

7/19/2009
Former PM seeks to clear the air
Story By Jenique Millington

SET to leave this country shortly for China to take up the mantle of Barbados’ Ambassador, Former Prime Minister, Sir Lloyd Erskine Sandiford, said that his now famous ‘like it or lump it’ statement was not directed to the Barbadian public as portrayed.

Seeking to clear the air on this while at the Democratic Labour Party’s lunchtime lecture recently, he said, “I want to make it abundantly clear as I made it at the time, I never referred to the people of Barbados and told them they could ‘like it or lump it’. I was speaking to the then leader of the Opposition, Mr. Henry Forde, who had made some … comment about something I had said, and I told him he could ‘like it or lump it’.

“It wasn’t addressed to the people of Barbados or to the Opposition Party. It was directed at something he had said … but they ran with that and distorted my sayings and pinned that upon me and my own people believed it, but the truth will out, though everyone tried to conceal it, because the truth is not as attractive as the untruth,” he continued.

Outlining the reasons behind him now trying to clarify the statement after almost two decades, Sir Lloyd said, “I say this because I have learnt over time that it is important in our public affairs not to assume that people will get the message. We must clarify the message and at all times speak as clearly as we can make it.”

In what may be his last address at the George Street headquarters for some time, he also disclosed that he has been invited by the University of the West Indies to
accept the Honorary Doctorate of Laws, gaining the applause of those gathered.

Presenting the topic “Barbados’ Pursuit of the Goal of becoming a Developed Country”, he outlined that Barbados should aim to gain the status of a developed country rather than remain “static and stagnant” as just a developing one.

“We have climbed out of that status, we have made progress in that direction and we are still the leading developing country in the world,” he stated.

He pointed out that during his leadership of the country in 1991, the United Nations Development Programme first devised the Human Development Index, ranking countries according to social and economic attainments and then Barbados was ranked at 21 – higher than some of those more

developed countries.

Then you need to bring Hansard.

@Bush Tea

And where better to begin that the highest body in the land?

Yea, but not by self- righteously condemning what we routinely do ourselves….(not Bushie of course, whose language is based on his South African roots), but by serious self examination and by leading and demanding change to be driven from the top down.

…LOL…that sounds pretty, but no one in current leadership would even know where to start doing this…

@ William Duguid “That outburst was the result of the most grievous of provocations which came from the mouth of a Democratic Labour Party parliamentarian. It would be improper of me to repeat the insulting words used, but I will say that they constituted the gravest possible insult to my wife and to my children”

If Donville Inniss said words which grievously of provoked William Duguid and furthermore if those words constituted the gravest possible insult to Willie’s wife and children then Donville should apologize to the Honourable House.

Because after all NOT ONE of us of us can say with ABSOLUTELY CERTAINTY who our fathers are.

Because if 1,000 people stand in a room and say “he is my father” statistically 50 of them are wrong.

Am I one of those 50?

Are you (whoever you are) one of those 50?

We don’t like to think about it but men and women give and receive horns, every day.

Every single day.

It has always been so.

It will always be so.

@Wikipedia…”Gropecunt Lane”

Those English people of 1230 were very explicit.

Imagine if we tried to rename the road around the Garrison “Gropecunt Circle”
