@ Well Well & Cut N’ Paste At Your Service February 26, 2018 at 8:20 AM #
Your position as posted above is clearly reasonable. However, the duopoly will never destroy each other. They ensure each other survives ! What we are witnessing now is nothing new. Both parties are equally corrupt. When you cut off the head of one , the other springs up.
My dear friend until both heads are cut off, the monster lives. Good luck ! -

“My dear friend until both heads are cut off, the monster lives. Good luck !”Now who would be doing the beheading of the gorgon called the BDLP duopoly?
The same electorate whose moral image is reflected in the double-sided dealing mirror called Tweedle Bee-cum-Dem?
The people elect the government they want (and deserve).
So by decrying, like a ‘laboring’ long playing (LP) record, both ‘labour’ parties you are effectively cussing in a sophisticated version of Bushie’s brass-bowl appellation the very people you expect to save from themselves.
So why not come out and openly attack the Bajan people (as is your right to do) and stop shooting at their reflection in the political mirror?
Your ‘youthful’ incursions into the forest of political warfare should have exposed you to the fickleness and vagaries of the Bajan brand of ‘hot and saucy’ electoral politics steeped in the culture of ‘corned beef and biscuits’ instead of convincing policies based on some form of political philosophy.
Maybe your idealistic clarion calls for political change in the image you see fit for Bajan purpose might not rest so much in the third party ‘Solution’ but moreso in a good dose of dictatorship in either the ‘benign’ Bush Tea or the more radical Pachamama-guillotine style.

This first PAC REPORT in 24 years does indeed smell like South Coast Political Sewage.
I’m more and more convinced that the Barbadian populace ethier BLP, DLP UPP etc although supposedly highly educated are somewhat lacking in intelligence. If it’s looks like shit, smells like shit you can bet there are politicians involved and it’s definitely SHIT.
The report does bring to the front some good points, however the political vorboius clouds it’s authenticity.

@ Artax
“But…..Mr. Skinner………….
…………that is exactly the point I was trying to make…………based on your contributions, you don’t “extend the same reasoning towards” others…….”
Please point out in any submission, where I attacked personally anybody on this blog , who wants to support the duopoly. The strongest term I have ever used is “apologists”. Within the last twenty four hours I have used the term “pot timers”. That is a bajan saying about timing the pot while we playing cricket etc…rather light hearted when you have a blogmaster that invites commentary and once you don’t swallow his hop -scotch, you are immediately called a Jack Ass.
The problem I have is that the supporters of the duopoly, try to convince others that there is some difference between the Bees and Dees. There is not one issue facing this country that cannot be apportioned to the duopoly, in some form or fashion. My position is that they have done equally badly and equally well.
Stand straight my brother. -
William…Unfortunately, we cannot have it both ways, we know the strengths of the new political parties are not as they should be, too many of them are still too in awe of the Barrow/Adams dynamic from 60 years ago. …which renders them useless in today’s world.
Mia is in a corner and being pressured to reveal the kind of legacy she wants to leave, if it’s the same legacy as the present government, colluding with minorities and business people to rob the population….or if she is going to clean up her act…….either way you are stuck with that particular status quo until better can be done, until that status quo can be permanently stripped…….which is not too far in the future given the high level of information available…..if she is thinking, it would serve Mia’s self interests much better if she joined forces with the blogs to clean up the scum in and out of parliament and in the business community.
Case in point regarding the information highway…it took years but Beckles finally found out that the Caribbean descendants of slaves have been paying the descendants of slave owners for centuries for their ancestors freedom from slavery…that is how weakminded and unaware your black leaders in society are, they cannot think at that level and are only made aware when the criminals in UK get fed up and confess……..I posted that information months ago, that is what probably promoted him to do some research….the information was out there for years.
..so let’s see what Mia does regarding dismantling the status quo of corruption and thefts with minority whites on the island.
Let’s see what all black leaders do re dismantling the status quo and institutions of racism and slavery still existing on the island…… .
Let’s see what the titled asses do about refusing those fake titles out of buckingham palace that has blinded each and every leader post slavery and post independence. ..
Let’s see if Beckles in all his current outrage gives up the fake title he got from UK…now that he finally realizes after decades that they have all been duped, made to look like uneducated, uninfirmed asses and remained slaves paying off slave masters for freedom…..186 years later.
There is a lot of work to do….it starts with stripping and dismantling the embedded status quo…..and it starts with the politicians and with these 2 toxic political parties.

William Skinner February 26, 2018 at 10:50 AM #
William you are right about the two main parties. Although all political parties are coalitions, there are no ideological differences between the BLP and DLP.
What differences there are personalities; even now, on the eve of a crucial general election, one only has to read the various contributions from party supporters to form an opinion of the authors.
As far as the political parties are concerned, there is no real debate: the DLP, for the last nine years, has failed the nation and continue to blame the Arthur government. I think it was in 2010 they promised the nation a nine-point plan for economic growth. Where is it?
As far as the BLP is concerned, their negative attacks on the DLP are wasted. The nation knows the DLP government has failed. What we want are positive policies: what would a future BLP government do to rescue the nation.
The excuse that they do not want to publish their policies too early is just that, an excuse. It is too late now for the DLP to steal any ideas from anyone. All they are doing is securing their financial futures.
As to the common courtesies accorded to each other on the blog, a fish rots from the head. What I find disappointing is that people who claim to be professionals do not recognise the formal metrics of professionalism: courtesy, tolerance, honesty, truth, transparent standards, grace, know-how.
But what do you expect when a so-called professional fails to remember what you learn in the very first year of basic finance: a stock market is an equity exchange for listed companies; an economy is a combination of the various institutions that make up the manufacturing, services and public sectors, along with consumption spending, and is managed through fiscal (ministry of finance) and monetary (central bank) policies.
Most ordinary people do not have any direct interest in the stock market, and indirectly only through their occupational pensions and annuities.
But, @William, as I have said before, you can form an opinion of people from their contributions. To conflate the economy with the stock market says a lot about one’s knowledge of financial economics. Now you see why some people like anonymity.
I feel sorry for any clients they may have. -
This is the best opportunity that came along in our lifetime for black governments/politicians/ministers to put their people first sin/without corruption, bribery and thefts, the well known status quo the business community depends on to rob everyone blind….and keep the island and people dependent on them….
-
See on FB where Mia has the complete support of the public for the walkout and exposure of the government’s crimes……now all she has to do is remain consistent to dismantle the system of corruption plaguing and blighting the island.
-
I have just completed reading the PAC REPORT and all I can say is WOW. I cannot believe this is how Ministers in the island behave, they have complete sold out protecting the public interest.
I still find it hard to accept that Minister would intentionally lie to a chairman of NHC about the decisions of Cabinet just so that the chairman would terminate a binding contract for Exmouth housing project and then enter into a new contract with another contractor (BJ Investments Ltd) for $5 MILLION DOLLARS more.AND IT WAS ALL A BLASTED LIE……………JUST TO TIEF FROM THE CONSOLIDATED FUND?
-
Dont for one moment think all of this is not tied together…..how could black people even pretend to be proud to carry these false shit titles..used to blind, steal from and ridicule them without their knowledge for over the last 50 years….let’s see if Mia has the balls to reverse the evil….she knows more than most what this entails.
“has said that the admission from the British Treasury that former colonies continued to pay for the abolition of slavery was further evidence that slavery is not of the distant past and irrelevant. ”
“This transfer of public money to the private holders of the slave bonds makes it a present-day activity. We consider this to be an immorality. We consider this to be a duplicity and public dishonesty,” Sir Hilary declared, further vowing to fight for Britain to pay for the atrocities it perpetrated in the Caribbean.”
.and it becomes beyond criminal, when local minority white thieves, knowing of these still onging wholesale criminal acts by UK against the descendants of slaves are helped by BLACK government ministers to visit more hardships on the people by stealing from the treasury and pension fund..
…it is particularly distasteful and repulsive when the house negros/ministers of parliament….the lawyers, senators, permanent secretaries are always greedily and readily eager to assist in stealing from their own people….and taking bribes to enrich minority white thieves…
That is the issue at play and what should be addressed hastily.
-
I just saw a clip with shit spouting in the streets of Hastings and these stink, nasty criminals Fruendel, Sinckler, Lashley, Lowe, Estwick and all their enablers am sure have their pockets filled, not one of them are driving through that poop…but the tourists are….the population is forced to….
They all should go to prison….bribers, bribees and enablers.
-
WWC,
History is repeating. Formerly, African kings sold hostile African tribes to Europan businessmen, today the Barbadian bureaucratic elite sells the taxpayer to Ex-European businessmen and foreign villains like Mrs Cahill.
The actors canged, the drama is the very same.
-
That is what has to be dismantled also . ..the house negros of parliament idea that they have to take bribes and give away what their people work for to minority whites because house negros are so damn brain dead…they have no brain power and dont believe their people are capable of progressing on their own without minorities to enslave them, mistreat them and steal from them.
The house negros in parliament are the problem…big, big problem….look how they have brought the island to its knees with their uneducated, greedy, ignorant, trifling selves.
The house negros are the weakest link….they are indeed modern day sell outs, all they need is a title and some status and your ass is sold to the very next lowlife, thiefing white who approaches or smiles at them.

@Let’s Not Remember the FAILED DLP February 26, 2018 at 1:52 PM “JUST TO TIEF FROM THE CONSOLIDATED FUND?”
Nobody steals from the consolidated fund. There is no such thing as a consolidated fund. people steal from the taxpayers pockets, your pockets, your parent’s pockets, and especially from your children’s and grandchildren’s pockets. When we have to pay so much taxes that we have nothing left for our children and grandchildren, who is it that has taken our children’s inheritance?
But we have unfortunately led the monied and political classes to think of it as the consolidated fund. A great big pot of money which is refilled every year by angels coming down from heaven.
No it is our money.
A young friend of mine, [not in government service] paid $38,000 in income tax last year, and the year before and the year before, and so on for nearly twenty years, and for another 20 or 30 years coming; now plus property tax , plus VAT.
So when young people are taxed at this rate what is their left for them to save for the future, to educate their children, to assist their elderly parents?
Isn’t it strange that parents will raise a child from infancy to adulthood and the government will say “stick ’em up!! the first $38,000 +NIS belongs to we” even while the youngsters are under no legal obligation to pay 38 cents per year to the parents?
What a world we live in, when the work that the monied and political classes do is so highly valued, and the work that good parents do is worth nothing.
No wonder that good parents are becoming scarcer and scarcer.
Let us abandon our parental duties, because after all good parenting does not pay, and let the government use our tax money to enrich themselves and the monied classes and with what is left let them keep our children in jail at a cost of $60,000 per year.

Looka! Wunna could talk all wunna like. Mia Mottley has provided me with enough reason to say in this one case that she ain’t making no sport. I am glad that she release the report as much as I dislike the corrupt, power-hungry manipulator. She ompletely surprised me. The report is a hair raiser for the crooks we all know that they are. Now if Mia Mottley serious about what she presented in the report as the fact surrounding the DLP skulduggery, then she should be even more pressed to launch a thorough investigation with criminal charges for all the players who operated outside the financial rules of government. That is the only way that I would embrace this rogue.

We behave like Barbados is the only nation with a duopoly or that there is something inherently wrong with one. The duopoly critics have no problem living in the metropoles were duopolies also exist. I thought the issue would have been what they do/don’t, and if curcumstances changed to a triopoly or oligopoly that the additional parties were examined based on their offerings and not just for simply bringing about numeric change. We are also so consumed with bashing politicians, that acknowledging the ability of the PAC under the chairmanship of Mottley to produce a report, the first in years, must be coloured with what others have not produced. No acceptance of the report representing a 5 year period, the resources required, the process (depending on witnesses, some refusing to attend) and of course the attempts to curtail the entire process. What’s funny is that most of the same critics supported the late David Thompson, who never produced one report and wilfully thwarted Mascoll’s attempt to use the PAC when he was LOTO. People with more skeletons than Westbury parading on BU as paragons of virtues.
We’re even searching for varying political ideology in a homogenous society. -

I say again, as you have difficulty in understanding, I am not a financial adviser, have never been, and do no want to be. I have never claimed to be a financial adviser. It is a criminal offence in the UK to claim to be an independent financial adviser when not regulated. The same way it is an offence to claim to be a chartered accountant when you cannot tell the difference between the stock market and the economy.
Also, I have never done business with Divi-Southwinds to my knowledge. But, the paucity of your arguments show up your unprofessional nature – and you claim to be a chartered accountant.
I think your colleagues should investigate yo for bringing the profession in disrepute. -
I have a gut feeling that elections will be called this weekend. It will be suicidal to go past the date of the March 6 deadline knowing than the twine is getting shorter. After the Business/Union march the Government had a lull space when the Social Partners agreed to meet with them. That would have been the bulls eye to have called election.

I say again: I have never done business with DiviSouthwinds or any other business in the St Lawrence Gap area. Nor am I now, or ever have been (or claim to be) an independent financial adviser.

Hal Austin
The fact remains I proved that you’re a LIAR and FRAUD.
You come to this forum giving the impression that you know everything about everything and have offered all the solutions to solve all of Barbados’ problems.
You posted a contribution to this forum in which you mentioned buying a $1,000 in time shares from Divi Southwinds. The same hotel you claimed to have not known its location………… and subsequently posted where exactly it is located.
Let me give a further example of some of the shiite to present to BU. You posted a contribution to this forum in which you mentioned evidence can only be determined as evidence unless is “tested in court under cross examination.”
Yet, you posted the following:
“Hal Austin February 26, 2018 at 2:41 AM #: While we are at it, when is officer Gittens going to face the courts for the killing of his neighbour? We still have not been told if the gun used was a service weapon or a privately owned one? If it was a service weapon, did he have permission to take it home? If it was privately owned, did he have a permit? Is he on full pay? In the meantime, questions should be asked in the media and in parliament? Who is the local member of parliament? Why is this member not taking an interesting in the killing of a constituent?”
You claim to know EVERYTHING about the law and procedures of the court.
PC Everton Gittens was arrested and charged for murder and is currently on bail, which means the matter is still before the court. And would it not be (using your words) unprofessional/unethical for the parties involved to discuss the intracacies of the case in public?
Then…….. why should it be revealed to the public, if Gittens used a service or privately owned firearm; if he had permission to take the firearm home; if he had a permit to own a personal firearm; or if he is on full pay? And why should the media ask those questions………especially since the matter is before the court?
Would not the revealation of this information prejiduce his case?
Then you come to BU mentioning “you can form an opinion of people from their contributions,” when you contribute some of the most uninformed shiite to this forum.
Barbados Underground is an INFORMAL FORUM, similarly to a rum shop…… where members of different social strata disassociate themselves from their personal and professional environments to discuss politics, economics, “getting horned,” the man on the “Cream of Wheat” box or any other topic they choose to discuss…….. and there isn’t any need for “formalities.” People duz disagree, cuss one unedder and den fire a drink after…….and tomorrow they leave BU behind to go about their respective businesses.
If you’re UNABLE to SEPARATE your so called professional life from the rum shop….then therein lies your problem and why people immediately form the opinion that you are an arrogant SOB……. believeing yourself to be much more important than your peers, only because, for example (and according to you), you helped developed a university course or write shiite that could be easily disputed by persons that are more knowledgeable than you are.
David BU is the blogmaster…….NOT Hal Austin……. and until he decides he had enough of my contributions…….I’m here to stay, whether you LIKE IT OR NOT…….

Hal, you have been ‘outed’ in true Peter Tatchell style by Artax our resident ‘forensic’ researcher.
Next minute you would be telling us you were once asked by Princess Diana to be her financial adviser and biographer but had to turn it down because of prior commitments to HRH Lizzie.
We already know you to be a fulsome braggart not only about your third rate academic success but also about being a ‘ladies’ man around the Hendon Town. However, your partner used to sing a different tune about your shortcomings not only in your ‘mannish-boy’ looks but in other ‘performances’ of the non-academic kind.
Anymore skeletons in the closet other than you being an old washed-up useless alcoholic of a fifth-rate rag sheet black journalist from Ladbrooke Grove fired from the backrooms of Fleet Street and not even the Voice of Hackney black newspaper covering the Stephen Lawrence murder would take on to save your financially sorry ass?
