BU notes the leader of the Opposition has lodged a private members resolution to debate Cahill when Parliament resumes from yet another break. We believe it is in the people’s interest to share whatever [โ€ฆ] obligations have been signed away by Ministers Sinckler, Boyce, Lowe and Kellman to Cahill Energy Ltd. Before the matter is debated in the House BU issues a request to the Prime Minister and ministers involved to address the three agreements signed:- 1. Memorandum of Understanding 2. Implementation Agreement and 3. Power Purchase Agreement.

    I must correct you; the success of credit unions started with Ralph Boyce, know more for his work at MESA, but I can assure you that he was the catalyst for the growth of the credit union movement in this country.

    2] Because of SuckUpIsm to the white man/woman that beseiges us field niggers when we encounter massah be he bourgeoisie Briton or pook buckra cow/bizzie Williams johnnies

    โ€œTaylor Wessing big London law firm Cahill Guernsey based yearwood out of his depthโ€

    Agree that Yearwood is likely out of his depth up against big London law firm Taylor Wessing.

    But I understood the March 2014 IA and PPA are between GOB and CEB, which was incorporated in Barbados in September 2013.

    The Guernsey company CEL is the (shell) Holdco for CEB.

    DD cannot speculate on whether the contract jurisdiction for a contract between two Barbados entities (GOB and CEB) can be in a jurisdiction other than Barbados; but if it is possible I am sure that Taylor Wessing could have sold that to Carrington – or whoever acted for GOB.

    I’m glad these documents are seeing the light if day but BU and it’s followers need to get their high horses. They are somethings the local media don’t touch with 10 foot poles because we all know the lawsuit and victimization that will follow.

    The owners of this blog sit behind a black wall and can therefore post this stuff. No one knows who there are and therefore they can act on put out hard stuff like this. It is callers to calling programs who then push the listeners to the story. Make no mistake, I hold not love for the local media but i fully understand what they are up against and you should to.

    now if the programs don’t allow them to discuss this when they want to, that is when all fire should rain down on them.

    How is it that all of you who are calling for the establishment of a third party to contest elections, don’t seem to understand that PARTIES are not elected to Parliament. INDIVIDUALS are elected. It is only that persons of political parties cow;esce at election and elect the individuals from their party. INDIVIDUALS FROM A THIRD PARTY WOULD HAVE TO CONTEST ENOUCH SETS TO FOEM A MAJORITY. AS HANTS HAS POINTED OUT WE HAVE A THIRD PARTY CONTESTING THE FEDERAL ELECTION NOW. I suggest all of you study the Barbados Constitution (The Independence Order Act) and see how we are governed.
    A lot of your suggestions don’t make sense.

    @BAFBFP, it is amazing how your relentless ability to cuss and interpret comments to suit your own intent is considered as reasonable conversation. And we condemn and criticize the politicians when they speak with the same irrational invective.

    Reflect and be enlightened. You are the one making the impossible comparisons to US big business. I did not.

    NGOs in Barbados follow the same context and basic operational lines as in US or other places.

    Currently NGOs like the United Federation of Teachers (Education) and the Teamsters Union (Labour) are very instrumental in campaigning and otherwise ‘putting forward for selection’ representatives in politics.

    If you perceive that the money and influence they wield is any less than the big business to which you refer then you are naive.

    In Barbados those same groups wield power in very similar ways…except for the large bank a/cs of course.

    If you fundamentally believe that any of those local groups can offer a strategically and transparently more effective method of governance by being more directly attuned to selecting the representative then proceed apace.

    I would ask that after you implement this wonderful new structure please ensure that your NGO selected members enact legislation to appoint a truly independent Police Commissioner and DPP (I can help you write the selection rules).

    Let that and the Integrity Legislation be done with the first 100 days. Let there also be legislation for RECALL elections for MPs upon a majority vote in his/her constituency.

    If that can be achieved then I would absolutely acclaim your method of governance as superior. Completely superior.

  19. BAFBFP Avatar
    BAFBFP

    Each NGO will elect its own Cabinet Minister .. and it will determine its own method of selection (whether 2/3’s majority or simple or electoral college or any other way that suits its membership), its Ministers length of term and the process of the Minister’s recall. Lobbies will be taking place at Cabinet level, and not through Political Parties. Any Barbadian could be a member of as many NGO’s as he/she chooses as long as he/she qualifies, and therefore can be part of the Minister’s selection. The NGOs may insist that members are financial before they are allowed to vote … another internal decision that they make. One man, many many votes.

    As for selection of COP and Judges and GOCB and DPP and others including general Promotions in the Civil Service, well one thing is for sure, there will be no more Political Parties around to make those determinations.

    Alvin the design is to move away from geographical “Constituencies” and towards “Interests” which actually do mean something to citizens.

    Bush Tea has shown a plan to get there … maybe there are others.

    @Kammie Holder, you said, “The Credit Unions are well placed as well as the other interest groups to field candidates.. What do the naysayers say?”. Of course, the CU can field candidates as they now do and wield their political power…. their members support candidates, don’t they!

    Surely you are not suggesting that for example the B’town CU would be better served to specifically proffer a candidate in Parliament. Will he be representing broad interests of all commercial enterprises or just those of the BCU? And how would that necessarily improve the electoral or governance process?

    @BAFBFP folks say that we Bajans are literate and educated but surely based on some of the exchanges I have had here I can only surmise that we Bajans can be selectively ignorant in order to validate our presentations.

    You are actually saying that the current system of one person, one vote is deeply flawed and not unsustainable because of the operations of POLITICAL PARTIES….Thus we should do away with the free association of citizens to these parties and implement a process where INTEREST groups comprised of PAYING members are the only ones allowed to vote and elect our representatives!

    This will cleans up the corruption of money in politics and provides a refreshing new platform to take our country forward. How wonderfully intuitive…Is there any wonder why our country is in such a mess!

    If I may offer some perspective, About two-three years ago The Teamsters Union (NGO interest group that fits your plan) assembled its members and drove solid support against the politician Gov Scott Walker in two recall elections. A clear and glaring example of interest group political involvement.

    There are education interest group keen on revamping the US school system with what they call Charter School–basically an educational PPP. They are definitely like-minded paying members and support their like-minded political candidates.

    Two examples of what is in place now. How does your system differ in an improved way from this level of influence or political control of interest groups?

    I can only hope that the ‘paying membership’ was a very bad slip of the tongue. If you were Caucasian every BU denizens would be up in arms that you are supporting the monied elite to take way the vote from poor black Bajans.

    This is obviously an exercise in the proverbial Bajan lotta long-talk to no avail. Absolutely exposed for his discriminatory, illegal and impractical format that leads where the entire corruption of our system always leads…to money.

    We have enough evidence by observing how systems of government have been failing across the Caribbean. What Baffy seems to be suggesting is to expand the opportunity for NGO interest to flavour decision making compared to what obtains today, read hijacking by the monied class. Bear in mind no system (man made) is perfect, It is about making better.

    @ Caswell
    …that is one more than Bushie would have guessed, but you probably have a better perspective.

    A simple look at the national institutions such as the various ministries, the state organisations, the army, police force etc shows a complete lack of leadership, management, administration and vision.

    People walking bout the country robbing and shooting innocent Bajans EVERY DAMN DAY ..and the Army chief on TV talking shiite bout ‘health insurance’ for soldiers – as if that is some kind of accomplishment …..so you mean all these years they did not have this…?
    When the Police main actor comes on TV …he comes armed with statistics to convince Bajans that we lucky more of us don’t get shoot when the day comes…

    When the PM comes on TV he only talking shiite bout how the big nations ‘unfairing’ we, and refusing to treat us like beggars and destitute peoples with grants and soft loans etc…. …this is man that writing letters to Clare of CAHILL offering her $700M to do shiite
    ….a man that protecting a big-ass CLICO thief .
    ….a man that endorsing a thieving Speaker….

    Arthur started this shiite of appointing people ‘willy-nilly’ to big-shot positions based on shiite certificated handed out by Sir Cave….. like Chicken feed jokers as Supervisor of Insurance…

    Um was sweet at first as all kinda brass bowl idiots got to drive bout big cars and live ‘big-up’ lives…. but “wuh sweeten goat mout’ does bun he tail….”

    @Mr Blogmaster, you got me kerfuffled. How does the system proposed “to expand the opportunity for NGO interest to flavour decision making compared to what obtains today” improve the process.

    What you and the proposer seem to be missing – and its like a bus coming head on- is that you are inviting MORE money and hijacking into the system.

    As you so rightly said “We have enough evidence by observing how systems of government have been failing across the Caribbean [and the world].”

    It is irrational to argue a non-event. So suffice to say this would be the classic case of animal farm redux.

    Apparently the people who ambitiously aspire to lead these NGOs are born of a different blood than the average citizen and the attempts to influence them are going to be different that the influence used with Stuarts’ group of miscreants.

    Ok sir. I am just an ingrunt fellow who apparently can’t see this logic even when it’s coming down the highway for a full-on collision.

    Based on the ‘clarity’ presented I now see the bright lights ahead so let me swerve to avoid this collision! Definitely you guys can have the last word on this.

    You are entitled to you opinion. A system that congregates around interest may encourage a more fulsome discussion in the society. It will force NGOs of like-minds to build strategic/ improve strategic alliances. The ‘interest base’ is widened. In the current system an MP is elected mostly based on party affiliation. We can’t keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. Jada in the proposed system might be able to sway the NGO construction interest but it becomes harder to influence other interest. It is a discussion worth having, it is easy to shut out different views. It requires little effort.

    Those found IN ANY WAY culpable will have ALL their assets confiscated…and returned ONLY when clear proof of legal ownership and all tax liabilities settled are provided.

    Straight off, 98% of the regular political candidates will withdraw from consideration… ๐Ÿ™‚

    David has got it. Today interests groups lobby Political Parties because the opportunity is there to control the WHOLE of Cabinet .. because that is what Political Parties do. In the proposed plan, these big monied interests will have the opportunity to control only one, ONE seat in Cabinet, and if the NGO membership are not comfortable with the level of representation they can recall the member as their constitution (developed by them) allows.

    Any broad based campaign financing will be no more than what currently exists within the BWU when they are looking to replace their head.

    They should have implemented Integrity Legislation and Declaration of assets because they gave a commitment to do so…
    But as Caswell always tell wunna… the problem in Barbados is not a lack of laws, but a lack of enforcement.
    Often, such non-enforcement is because the laws are written by the SAME THIEVING lawyers to whom they will apply…
    So they write all kinds of unenforceable shiite…

    Notice that Bushie is recommending that ANYTIME that the Auditor General or other independent Auditor identifies ANY malfeasance the DEFAULT position is that all assets of those responsible are frozen until THEY provide proof of legal ownership….which of course they will do next day…

    SUCH A LAW WOULD NEVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY.

    They would come up with something putting the burden of proof on the Auditor General or the DPP (who have no damn staff) or on the High Court (who don’t do one shiite)…..
    …you know the rest…. 25 years before it comes up…

    @David, you said “…,the BU household is always wary of supporting the establishment. Something about what happens if you get too comfortable.”

    Does that mean that anything proposed as long as ts anti-establishment makes sense?

    Let me ask you and BU this simple question. If COW, Bizzy and Berjham had proposed that they would support Hoad’s Farmers NGO to ensure that only “… members [who} are financial … are allowed to vote ” to elect a representative to the House of Assembly what would you say?

    IslandGal likely would tell us what type of c-word they were and it would be a ripping lot of lashes all about slavery all over again.

    Why can a black bajan suggest educated under Errol Barrow et al offer such absolute illegal, discriminatory nonsense to suppress the voice of my poor father and mother and it is accepted as ‘wary of supporting the establishment’.

    You must be drinking too much of your own joy juice David!

    You do not fix a broken system by replacing it with other impractical and ILLEGAL systems. This is 2015 not year one!

    @David base on your “you have allowed your mind to be shackled.” Definitely too much joy juice.

    You have absolutely no context of me as a person so to make such a ridiculous statement is really ..well ridiculous. My mind is as shackled as yours is, good sir!

    I have absolutely no problem whatever with change to the system. But change cannot be implemented with poorly thought out policies.

    If you are really going to posit that “A NGO established and vested in the success of goat farming will be less vulnerable to influence as Baffy explained” then the Barbados education system which should have thought you to analyze and examine carefully all data have really failed YOU and the country.

    Mr Holder and his Future Center Trust did an awesome job of galvanizing support against CAHILL… in the background was Cummings saying to be aware of who supports them. I really could care less where the support emanates.

    But are you so completely devoid of awareness to understand that if they were electing a rep to Parliament that in fact we would definitely have to take that issue of support seriously.

    And moreover that they would be very strong efforts from many groups to influence their position. Overtime all people cave to such inducements..in some way, even if to resign.

    Yet you strongly recommend that is BETTER and in fact vastly different to what exist today.

    Constructive change David. Not a different folly in a different suit!

    And btw, why is my mind shackled to call out any Bajan for espousing discriminatory and illegal practices. That is only applicable to whites now?????

    Unlike ministries, which represent a sector/industry as a whole, many NGOs represent sub-sectors of industries with their own agenda.

    For example, are the concerns of all within “health” the same–are private doctors, QEH doctors and specialists the same? Are dentists? In tourism, small hotels and big hotels, restaurans, watersports operators? Transportation? Calypsonians and other musicians? Artists vs musicians vs film makers? I keep hearing environment being consistently mentioned, an environmental NGO exists in many forms with varying and competing ideologies, so do all get to elect a member? How will the obvious agenda, not SECTOR/INDUSTRY, disputes be resolved? Aren’t we basically replacing two agendas with 15+?

    Competence and honesty are the two key requirements, the NGO Cabinet like the existing scheme guarantees neither since the underlying issue remains–quality of Cabinet MInister whether via first pass the post or NGOs.

    Democracy has been viewed for centuries as the best of the worse systems of governance.

    Bim upto the early 1900’s had a set of NGO’s who had the vote by virtue of owning land,who were subdivided into planters,merchants,farmers,artisans,etc,etc.This system was deemed to have disenfranchised the majority population.

    Do we wish to re-establish this NGO system?

    David, why do you persist with nonsensical recommendations. I embrace change when it’s practical. I like all others on BU am definitely in the armchair cabinet but like many of them I have been very much on the front end (not politically) but socially in my Bajan community. The change being discussed in NONSENSICAL, NOT NEW and inherently more restrictive and prone to influence peddling.

    Blogger Vincent above says it more pellucid than apparently I have been trying in these several posts so read his remarks.

    Additionally, how can you present to sensible people a recommendation for electoral change that is illegal, discriminatory and restrictive.

    It really saddens me that otherwise sensible people could be so absolutely lacking n foresight and historical perspective to not see that what they are proposing is an old colonial system that is still used today by the monied interest.

    How progressive can you be to suggest this absolute discriminatory piffle.

    A policy which as Vincent elucidates with aplomb above is a relic from our racist plantocracy; that is your new formulation.

    This is unreal. Looka, has somebody else taken over your postings. Oh lawd. LOL.

    You are free to critique any idea on the blog.If the proposal is to revamp the system how is it illegal? Another indication your mind is closed. Many of us on the rock who understand how the system is currently hijacked and manipulated by a few are of the mind we need to dismantle it. Views being expressed come out of this mindset. That you cannot appreciate what is motivating some of us to brainstorm out of this free fall we are in is your business. Vincent has located his response in a pre-Independence colonial period no longer relevant.
