Please permit me some space on your blog to share some information regarding the leadership of the Barbados Labour Party (BLP). It must be made known what damage Mia Mottley is doing to this party. Mia has cast aside the party along with the parliamentary group and now runs the party with a group of people who really have no connection to the party but are her personal friends, most of who are seen as DLP members.

Mia’s chief adviser is Hartley Henry. While Hartley is a professional one can understand why and how this would cause problems for most in the BLP. Her relationship with the MoF is well known, so it does not surprise many when she eases the pressure on her friend, Chris. Anyone who knows Mia Mottley well would tell you her best asset is the loyalty she has for her friends. The likes of Lucille Moe, Debra Hughes, Carol Roberts and Avinash Persaud etc. The look on the MP’s faces was priceless when Avinash entered the room to advise them on Barbados’ economy a few days ago.

Mia does not have the support of the parliamentary group because of these relationships and the belief that the BLP is to be run like her house with no one outside her circle of friends knowing her plans. Mia believes she can bring down this government by the middle of the year. This is what she tells the group but no one knows how. This approach does not instil confidence but it makes persons question your judgment and motives.

When you add all this to the fact Mia would of tried to make more than a handful of BLP candidates lose in the last election, it is easy to see why she will fail before she starts the job.

    Peter Wickham’s piece in Sunday Sun was the most readable from him since a vex as ass George Belle told Barbados it is he who trained and made Wickham what he is. Wickham who was proven to be a fraud in the last elections is in a Saul to Damascus moment in the Sunday Sun. Credit to him for calling Arhtur’s ‘ gimmick’ remarks as most right thinking people saw it. Arthur was disrespecting and dismissing Mottley again contrary to the feeble excuses from miller, just asking and the collection of BLP pimps. Arthur is going nowhere and the likelihood of another palace coup cannot be ruled out. Arthur is orchestrating oblong head Kerrie Symmonds so expect him to play the central role that Payne and Marshall played in the last Mottley overthrow.

    Waiting I would not put it pass Symmonds to be the author of something of what we have been seeing recently an in particular today, it was focused and sent a clear message that a Coup was around the corner, it on our doorstep and we did not realize it was there.

    If either one of you felt that Arthur may have misspoken when he referred to Mottley as being nothing but Gimmicks he did not misspeak he was focused and intentional and he followed it up today with a more telling body blow of all body blows to lick the stuffings and kick Mottley’s right up to her eyes, not let me ask if her own party dislikes and does not support her why should the Nation?

    Arthur may be pulling her out of the firing line just ahead of the outcome of the Dottin Case being made known to the public, I think his timing to be impeccable and to relieve the party of Mottley and more negative press with her tie in with Dottin and his and shortly to hers Wiretapping and Eavesdropping charges, Arthur did it best by relieving her now rather than later and distancing himself from that fiasco in which Mottley is deeply implicated up to her eyeballs.

    This removal from the office as leader of the opposition also is timely for other reason, as I have said before both Arthur and Symmonds have been urging the Minister to debate the Four Seasons fiasco as they to know what her connections and fees are and they too want to drive the dagger in her over the same project, when the Minister brings the debate do not leave your seats as it will boggle your mind what she was paid out of NIS Funds.

    Mottley’s poor judgment came to the fore AGAIN yesterday. While she was busy asking Barbadians to get rid of Sinkler and Stuart . as reported in today’s Nation , an absent Arthur was getting rid of her . It clearly shows that she is not even aware of what is going on around her ; she cannot be a leader while continually displaying such poor judgment .

    During the Thompson Mascoll imbroglio Barbadians became fearful of how a weak opposition can compromise a fragile democracy. It seems the BLP has not been taking notes. Many on BU have remained apprehensive since Arthur made the statement at the UWI. They simply don’t want her to lead for whatever reasons.

    To assume leadership pending a collapse of the DLP.

    To weaken Mottley and thereby allow the DLP to get on with the IMF program.
    To confuse those in the DLP who may be considering crossing, how can someone cross if the leadership is uncertain?
    To keep Mottley from being a PM by any means necessary.

    It should be of some interest that Ralph Taylor’s contribution to the BLP meeting yesterday was centred on Almond Beach . Can he have any moral authority to talk about Almond Beach given his past involvement at the same hotel ? Can his contribution be seen as anything other than his PERSONAL interest in that project ? Did he hope to be at the centre of the project and is now displaying a sour grapes attitude ? These fellows cant help letting down their slips . Finally can Ralph Taylor hav any credibility ?

    It is difficult to ascribe naked ambition to what is at play. What is clear without knowing the reason(s) is that there is a BLP faction who are not comfortable with MAM at the helm. Bear in mind Arthur cannot disrupt the leadership of the party by his sole action.

    “It is difficult to ascribe naked ambition to what is at play.”

    What else could it be then?
    Despite OSA’s physically and politically battered condition he still fancies his chances of rivaling EWB as being “reelected” as PM of Bim in his third political incarnation. He is indeed backed by a sizeable faction of the anti-MAM members of the party and definitely by a few of the elected members on the Opposition benches.

    OSA smells the pending fall of the DLP administration in a similar manner where he fancied his chances of once again becoming PM when he found out that David Thompson’s death warrant was read to him. Who on the Government side has received such notice of a possible early visit from the grim reaper this time around is left to your speculation.

    The chances this time around for OSA making his “pressuring” wife of a Jezebel the First Lady of Ilaro Court once again have improved tremendously because of the dire state of the economy and the people looking for an economic Moses to rescue the country.

    OSA is playing for broke but this time around both he and MAM will be the inevitable losers.
    Unless OSA issues a serious clarification and retraction of that outburst of political idiocy caused by diabetic induced hallucination, MAM is strongly advised to resign now and tell the selfishly ambitious lot harking back to the halcyon days of the BLP ancient regime under OSA to “Sweet FA”. Making Symmonds his “stepney” as the de jure LOTO will create more factional harm than healing in the BLP.

    OSA, MAN, this crisis is way out of your exhausted capacity to handle. You need to ride off in the sunset into electoral heaven and keep your political promises and commitments or else you too might find your naked personal ambitions scuttled by the same grim reaper you suspect is hovering over the other side. Try to remember what happened in 1987 to our hero EWB who was afflicted with the same temperamental ailment as you are. You might not make it to that grand old age for a Bajan PM of 67.

    We wonder if the Fumbler is bold enough to call OSA bluff and request a new mandate from the electorate given the confusion and possible split that is about to plague the BLP.

    Barbados has a date with destiny and these are all the manifestations of social and economic collapse of this once proud country formerly capable of punching above its weight.
    What have the people done wrong in the sight of their god to be saddled at this stage of pending economic and social crisis with such political upheaval and selfish evil-minded leadership.

    are-we-there-yet?

    I haven’t seen today’s Nation’s print edition yet but I’ve seen the eNation summary of a very important article that will clearly define how we go forward as a Nation, perhaps for decades.

    The story essentially indicates that Owen Arthur, presumably upset at Mia Mottley for naming him as a member of a proposed Eminent Persons group that would somehow act to pull the Country back from the jaws of failed statehood, an act that was totally against his wishes, wrote a 6 page letter blasting Mia’s suitability to lead the Opposition and thereby the Country also.

    The story follows another one in the Nation last week on the same theme of Gimmickry and an edited version of an Interview of OSA by Ricky Jordan that, by its omission of any direct reference to Mia Mottley, had the effect of suggesting that there were none or little of the implications of discord in the Opposition camp that were evident in the first Nation article.

    That OSA felt compelled to put his objections on paper (6 pages) indicates that he felt very strongly about his leader’s action in this regard and that the rift between them is now practically irreconcilable and thereby that there is indeed serious discord in the BLP camp.

    This is very bad news for Barbados. I suspect that we have never since Adult Suffrage been in a position where the country has absolutely no credible leadership at present and in the offing.

    The DLP, under its current pusillanimous, timorous, irresolute and selfish leadership, CANNOT implement proper strategies and actions to get us out of the morass they’ve put us in. The Opposition BLP, even though they have people on board who do have the intellectual capacity and track record to lead us out, seems ready to self destruct in a death dance that under more enlightened leadership would have been abandoned in an effort to put the country first. Can they believably surmount this challenge? Is Mia the best choice for a leader? Should OSA be reinstated as leader or should he be relegated to the sidelines as an elder statesman but with his economic genius put to the use of Barbados in a tangible way?

    We in duck’s gut.

    I think it was Millertheannunaki who first pointed this out on BU. Look for the serial acts of total incompetence that will be played out between Government and the Unions, as they circle and intermingle with each other in a transparent dance to each save face, in a series of missteps and blunders in implementing the Government’s announced layoff policies or trying to back-back from them, without apparently recognizing that the manner of implementing that policy will have further ineluctable effects on the Country’s economy as a whole and determine the time frame and degree of pain in our eventually surviving and coming out of this parlous situation.

    ac wrote an excellent analysis of the situation this morning which I would like to build on below. The Government and the Opposition seem to be each trying to make Pachamama’s non-solution for the way forward become more attractive but if this takes it will send us deeper in the doo-doo before we can extricate ourselves from it.

    Failed statehood beckons.

    Perhaps Freundal needs to call an almost instant election now that will not allow time for mobilizing the usual suspects in campaign financing and let the General Public have a say in the Country’s governance at this crucial time. Let the Campaign be led by meetings and Streaming and BU and BFP and Facebook and letters to the press and anyone who tries to pass money to a potential elector and is seen gets locked up.

    Being a good leader calls for sound judgment and Mia seems to lack that in spades. After Arthur’s statements about Mia after the musical chairs episode that brought him back to the leadership of the Party, Mia should be walking on eggshells where Arthur is concerned.

    To blatantly put him on the spot when he said that he wanted no part of the “eminent persons” group is akin to a civilian stepping into the arena and waving a red flag at a bull, the resulting carnage will not be pretty.

    This will be the final showdown between the two, who will be left standing?

You won’t lose in the resultant election and you might parlay a victory in that election to a PM and Minister of Finance position. Now is the time to strike while the iron is hot.

    With the BLP shooting itself in the foot there is a narrow window of opportunity for you.

    Not exactly. Fields was Chairman of the Barbados Private Sector Organisation (BPSA), and did the the bidding of the PM (Arthur) on all matters pertaining to the private sector. It was mainly because of him that the BPSA has no credibility as a representative of all private sector entities.

    Have a read of today’s Daily Nation page 1. All I would say is Wow! 
    But, I knew this was on the cards for some time. My credible sources told me this was inevitable. 
    Some elders/apologists for that Bad Looking Party and some influential backers, the Bad Looking People outside of the party – the ones with the dough who matter to them- are rooting for ‘The Great (Economist) Borrower/Spendthrift’ who got us into all this debt initially, are vowing to bring down the woman.  I say, good for it!  Hip, Hip,   Hooray fuh Jin-Jin!

    Man , they are not letting up. She is experiencing her special trimester, as this is the third time around they are going after her hide. Talk about perseverance! Well, well! 

    Now, if they are going after their very own with such ferocity and consistency, why some folk think they wouldn’t go after Freundel, Chris and the DLP. That is what they are good at. It is in their DNA.
    But, you know what? I relish that infighting. 
    Let them hound-down each other. They are gunning for her with a viciousness  and vengeance unseen and unheard of in local politics. 
    Now Barbadians will see the real BLP. All along it has been a real charade. 
    For years, I have been telling people that they are a bunch of power-hungry tyrannizers, who don’t have this country’s interest at heart, only their own.
    I am sure there is more to come, as that man and his cronies feel he is the country’s only saviour.  But, they are living in a fool’s paradise.
    The DLP just has to stay united, stay focused, stay the course, and yes, begin the process of communicating with the people and we will overcome. PR, PR and more PR is needed.

    Things will get better. I am certain about that. They are improving in our source markets – the UK  and USA. Hopefully, the terrible recession that has wreaked havoc across the globe will end this year. Yes, that too shall pass, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

    Have a Great Day.

    As your moniker implies you are certainly living in the past. These are different economic times and no amount of borrowing or selling or increasing conspicuous consumption to raise tax revenues would allow the country to be more productive and earn foreign exchange to keep it afloat.

    Just take a look at the health of the engines of economic growth: tourism, international business, agriculture and agribusiness. In the period 1994-2008 people were keen to invest in Bim because they saw opportunities to make quick money, especially the Trinidadians. Barbados was also able to borrow on the international money markets because it did not have the junk bond status as a label around its neck. OSA’s return will not change that.
    OSA’s style of economic management is irrelevant to the problems facing the country. What is required to save Bim are much greater productivity, discipline- both fiscal and social-, more consumption of locally produced goods and services and less talk and more implementation of policies and programmes.

    We are prepared to give OSA another chance if his first task will be to clean up the country and make it look as if it is prepared to open for business again.
    A dirty looking place of business is a major turnoff since its says a lot about its occupants.

    miller when will you ever learn?
    In your first posts this morning we thought the scales were finally removed from your eyes but that was a mere hot flash you are back to your foolishness. Owen Arthur is finished not only that he is determined to finish Mottley . Mentally Owen’s focus is on full scale war against Mottley he doesnt have the strength or focus to clean up any economic problems.

    The fair minded have pointed out all along the raging factionalism in the BLP. As vicious as the Pain/ Hinckson who is biggest thief saga is its kid’s play next to the OSA/Mia long running showdown. You miller instead of trying to comprehend what the fair and balanced were saying took aim at Froon and Sinckler with venom only matched by Arthur’s venom towards Mottley. The people of Barbados elected the DLP to run their affairs for the next five years. The DLP has its weaknesses most of us don’t know for example where loose cannon Estwick stands. However as faithful Barbadians we have to rally around the government and help them to lead us out of this crisis. Its for the betterment of the entire nation including you miller.It can and will be done. Resilient Barbadians will settle for nothing less. We’ve conquered the mountain before we shall do it again.

    The $300 million capital flight that put us in the foreign exchange stranglehold was ferreted out of the island by the disloyal elite rats after the BLP lost last Feb. As David Thompson said no need to panic they migrated in droves to New Zealand and Australia after EWB’s Lord Combermere speech then snuck back in. This too shall pass. This beautiful paradise we inhabit has proven it can punch above its weight often times before and will do it again.

    The BLP must be left alone to resolve their huge problems and infighting. In the meanwhile the GOB, the unions the social partnership and every loyal son and daughter must put his or her hand to the plough as we forge ahead to defeat the recession monster.

    We are willing to bet that the majority of Bajans do not want to see the man kill himself. That message was abundantly relayed in the last elections.

    What are you wishing for? The LOTO must be a person fit and able to attend Parliament regularly. Do you agree or do you see general elections within weeks? Is he prepared to be leader of the Opposition to send secret notes to Fumble to take Cynthia or the pain in his ass Georgie off his hands? Kerri Symmonds will not get people to support the BLP if MAM is ousted and numbers or votes do count. The BLP will NOT , repeat will NOT win any future general elections under OSA’s traitorous leadership.

    The man OSA needs to accept his human limitations and step aside. Mortal Man, know thyself.
    Take the Annunaki’s advice on this one.

    You are a typical intellectually stunted mis-educated Bajan. Can only see black or white with severely limited comprehension skills.

    Can’t you spot sarcasm when it is made? Idiot!

    We wonder if your colleagues including BLPNationNewspaper still think the Nation newspaper is pro BLP or is it in the business of selling newspaper.

    I believe Ralph Taylor spoke on the BLP’s platform last election; not the DLP’s.

    This why we are badly in need of a third party. These power hungry men will do anything and everything to keep the status quo. This is when old diabetic men for forget to take their meds.

    “However as faithful Barbadians we have to rally around the government and help them to lead us out of this crisis. Its for the betterment of the entire nation including you miller.”

    Go and tell that jingoistic crap to those thousands of public sector workers and who will soon be on the breadline which will be another bungle by your incompetent administration. You can also feed that shit to the already unemployed and school leavers especially those from the UWI.

    Listen Idiot, nothing in Barbados, economically, is for the miller’s betterment except keeping the place hygienically and socially safe, Get it?
