You are quite right David – it is no different in the UK, where race-replacement is promoted by all the main parties with no regard whatever for the interests or wishes of the indigenous population. The difference there is that it is virtue-signalling, and the hope of a place at the Great Eurotrough in that most corrupt of places, Brussels, rather than direct bribery as in Barbados. The additional problem in B’dos is no stigma attaches to the receiving of bribes, quite the contrary.

Simple…yardfowls are having a fit, supporters of thieves are making up all kinds of stories, the thieves are trying to take over parliament and kick out their bribees/politicians to get some diplomatic immunity so they can become untouchable to international policing agencies…..bribee/ministers are pissing themselves…ya cant want more drama than that….lol
I wont miss this shit show for anything, they will still hide and take a bribe here and there before election, even if they have to sue each other to make it look real good, but we are sure to hear about it….and them.

Trevor Prescod has always been a political gangster operating under the rubric of Pan-Africanism but as a practical matter he has never been any different than the worst of politicians.
At least his mentor, Don Blackman, had the good sense to demit office once he recognized that the duopoly was incapable of delivering any transformation at all.
Anybody who has had direct dealings with this one Prescod would well know that there is no difference at all between him and what Don Blackman first called ‘White Shadows’.
Even Blackman’s resignation and events thereafter, and before, sadly point in that same direction.
Anybody who always has, even in his sleep apparently, a smile on his face must be either a ‘smart’ man, a conman or a crook.
We see a guillotine as an indispensable instrument for social, political and economic transformation!

@45govt April 15, 2018 6:26 AM “I left Barbados 38 years ago, when it was still paradise…what was gifted to you in 1966. ”
Thanks for leaving. Please do not come back. We can do without your racism and your ignorance and your hate.
And do stop telling lies. Barbados was not gifted to us. If Barbados was a paradise in 1980, it was the labour and decency, and honesty of black and some white Barbadians who had made it so.
And Barbados was no gift. How can you call it a gift when my ancestors, my grandparents, my parents, me, and my children have worked so hard and so well to create the country that you regarded as a paradise? That paradise–according to you–did not happen by accident. Generations of black Barbadians by their labour, their blood, their sweat and their tears created what you found to be paradisal and which you now revile.
And since it was a paradise why did you leave? Nobody leaves leave paradise. Never heard of such a thing before.
We are sorry that you are sick. We are sorry to hear that you are dying. But when you moved to the rich people’s country you should have restrained your appetites. There was no need to eat like a hog, there was no need to drink like a drunken sailor, and so destroy your body.
it is your own fault that long before you are three score and ten you have destroyed your own body.
Get lost.

@Artax April 15, 2018 7:32 AM “Antiguans agree with their PM that the unemployed non-nationals should return to their country of birth because “were creating an unnecessary burden for the country” and noted “he’s had requests by some immigrants who are not working but still want to bring their family members to live with them.”
Is it you or is it the Antiguan PM who is being disingenuous? Of course people want their families with them. That is entirely NATURAL human behaviour. Do you like to live without your wife or girlfriend? Do you like to live without your children? Do you like not being ale to see your elderly parents for decades at a time?
Well the Antiguan PM is a bright fella, and so are you. He asked to be elected, nobody forced him ito political office. Now he has to man up and manage human behaviour in a humane way.
That’s what leadership is. If a man desires political office he has tobe prepared to work, smart, work hard and work humanely ALL OF THE TIME.
P.S. I have been unemployed thrice for some months and at those times I definitely wanted my family to remain with me. What sort of person separates from family just because they have no money? Was I supposed to put my children in an orphanage just because i had no job?

“Dear David: You must make 45govt apologize. You should not let him get away with calling a fellow human being an animal.”
You may consider yourself on a par with Mr Prescod, and I feel sorry for you for labouring under that lack of self-esteem. As one of my very religious clerks once said to me in a discussion of evolution, “Mr 45govt YOU may come from de monkeys, but not me!”

45 govt nothing you say is of any significant concern to me. The blp has lost its soul Trevor Prescod is part of that brand trying to distribute fake news to solicit votes. Where was his mouthings on the topic of white shadows.years ago .Now all of a sudden he finds the intestinal fortitude to speak on the subject without producing evidence.
As for you “45govt” something about your moniker reminds me of the sleeze ball Donald trump aka as 45. How distrubing -

@Artax April 15, 2018 7:32 AM “I have been asking what are the immigration policies of these new political parties.”
I agree with you here, except that I would add I would like to see the immigration policies of all of the political parties. Immigration policy must be well thought out, discussed, and then FAIRLY and SENSIBLY implemented.
Where is the DLP on this? An excellent immigration policy is more than “ever so welcome wait for a call?”
Where is the BLP on this?
Where are all of the others on this?

Simple… when ya ignorant, IQ45 happens, these delusional clowns who put no country or island anywhere, still believe they own countries and islands and gave them away as gifts, still believe they have a right to say what should happen in BLACK MAJORITY AFRICA….a continent with 52 or 54 mostly very large countries, larger than anything found in the west, still feel they have a right to do and say as they like in a majority black island, earned by the blood, sweat, tears and deaths of multiple ancestors…that is the true definitionf ignorance/lack of knowledge. …or just plain brainwash stupidity handed down from the brutish british.
“We see a guillotine as an indispensable instrument for social, political and economic transformation!”
I hear that, much preferable, apparently black politicians are unaware just how tiresome they have become.
They better get that power to recall governments and rogue ministers legislation into law as soon as one of them is elected, so far none of them are pledging such legislation. …more the reason to break up all those political parties into a coalition cabinet…..everybody want to be a faux king and faux dictator to continue being corrupt.

Everybody should be aware that diplomatic immunity does not last forever. It comes to an end. And “bagmen” should be aware that they do NOT have diplomatic immunity. Travelling with your Minister does not grant you diplomatic immunity as a “bagman” from the Eastern Caribbean discovered when travelling with his Minister. The “bagman” was arrested while the Minister went ‘long on his happy way. A spell in a foreign jail disabused the “bagman” of the notion that he had diplomatic immunity.
-
So useful if some who do not have anything useful to add to the discussion to just read until they do.
-
Bagmen and outside women need to be mindful of this. While the Minister’s legal/paper wife enjoys diplomatic immunity, the same does not apply to outside women, nor does it apply to outside children whose father’s names are not on their birth certificates.
-
Another famous fool delivered a similar rant on the floor of parliament regarding his life being threatened. Like this rant, no names were forthcoming and like this rant, we will probably never hear another spoken word about the alleged incident. Can you imagine the life of a minister of government being threatened and narry a word or follow up by the police?
As far as calling a name under the protection of Parliament is concerned, that opportunity has long since gone as the King of Clowns allowed Parliament to dissolve in his imbecilic attempt at creating history, a history that will be very unkind to him unless written by the historian managing the campaign.
On a minor note of major importance to me is Mr Prescod’s presentation skills – more suited to another place than the highest platform of debate in the land and where was once a place of honor.
-
Ah guess those ministers now loitering under diplomatic immunity will find out soon enough….less than 60 days…that it ends and they will not be able to hide under that umbrella anymore….that should give us a peek and bird’s eye view into what happens when you no longer have diplomatic immunity, I will not miss that one either..

“The blp has lost its soul Trevor Prescod is part of that brand trying to distribute fake news to solicit votes.”
Mariposa
A similar observation could be made of several DLP parliamentarians as being “part of that brand trying to distribute fake news to solicit votes,” as well.
I’m sure you’ll agree that Christopher Sinckler is one of the most “notorious liars” ever to walk the halls of parliament.
Surely you remember on the eve of the 2013 general elections, Sinckler told parliament he was informed by police that two men were overheard planning to assassinate him. And after lambasting Mottley for exposing one of his lies, he subsequently called “Brass Tacks” to offer an apology.
But we cannot forget when the Central Bank, IMF and Standard & Poor reports that government economic policies have failed to achieve the desired objectives…….Sinckler was still attempting to convince Barbadians his policies were working.
-
@FearPlay, your remark that “… Mr Prescod’s presentation skills – more suited to another place than the highest platform of debate in the land and where was once a place of honor” is rather amusing and disingenuous (unintentionally so, I expect).
Yours is an imbalanced view of the debate in the House of Assembly…dont equate ‘presentation skills’ therein and ‘honor’…
…What honour is there from Parliament since the days of EWB and JMGMA’ (when I started paying attention) and their fellow parlimentarians’ harsh rhetoric which OFTEN led to threats that if the person repeated the remarks outside parliament they would be sued
In what context does a person feel so aggrieved by HONORABLE words and behaviour to threaten legal action ! 🤔
So it’s amusing that you condemn Prescod”s combattive style as dishonorable when in fact the HoA has been a den of dishonourable behaviour for donkey years…
@Mr Blogmaster, yes there are basic staples of political warfare that always generate interest…race as you highlighted and of course, sex.
So I suspect the white shadows will continue to excite us even tho we know it’s contrived…just as we will hear about who horn who, who bites what body parts and likely rediscover the good ole Bajan term bootsie! (Hopefully for tourism sake, like the internet burned on the word ‘kakistocracy’ [govt by worst people] last week. One can hope, right😊)
The Pacha spoke of Don Blackman’s white shadows rants [back in ’86] but of course the beauty of that (as is now) is that the DLP then had one of the freaking biggest local white executives as a Barrow confederate…
…like a game of circus fun-house mirrors: the image changes depending on which side of your mouth you flap…Prescod is simply having his turn at the circus routine!
-
Pacha…..this is so sorely needed in Barbados, Caribbean and most countries, there is only so much of the corruption you can take before something HAS to give.

What kind of politicians do BU bloggers want|? The majority reject Natalee on the basis of her history, even though the Christian faith to which many claim to belong preaches redemption.
Now they turn their venom on Trevor Prescod, a man who identifies with the down trodden, the impoverished, the marginalised, a man who speaks with dynamism and verve.
One does not have to agree with everything he says, but he certainly deserves his place at the top table. As to people of influence, it would be naïve to suggest that there are not communities n Barbados, publicly removed from the political process, yet have as much influence, if not more, than any organised black groups.
Is this not the implicit claim when we talk about corruption, especially including certain property developers and those who the NIS chooses to invest with?
Is this not implicit when we talk about certain people and groups who are above the law? Is this not what is meant when we claim that certain people get to hear the detail of government business before ministers and parliament? What is it that we really want?
Are we not attacking Trevor because he is not a lawyer and is an ordinary guy and not from a high-class family? BU must make up its mind what kind of society it wants, or do these keyboard warriors, most of them in the ante -chamber before meeting their master, just want to vent their bitterness and spite on anyone who crosses them?
Or, is it just another example of the Bajan crab mentality meant to pull down a parliamentary candidate who is popular with his constituents? -
I am sure their equally corrupt bribers took a free bullet to the head also, the Chinese will never leave it unfinished….ya fix the problem completely and do not leave it to fester and give birth again, cut off ALL the heads.
-
oh…I thought the heading had come…the Chinese government executed 26 politicians in one fell swoop….for corruption, in the above photo, as I said am sure their partners in crime, the business people, were also executed, to send a loud message..

Well Well
Few recognize the levels of corruption in our world
Corruption makes notions of democracy quaint, at best
Only the sunlight of popular power, on a daily basis, can stymie this
The system of government capitalism in China sometimes makes an effort but they merely scratch the surface.
In the West we are way too tolerate of official corruption.
Vested interests have no fear of their publics
-
@Hal, you sir need to deal with YOUR own demons and stop projecting them to BU bloggers, fah real!
Apart from the tired twists on race, unnecessarily caustic ad hominem and some unbridled misantrophy which come from the same sources on every subject where did you get the perspective here that…..”… we [are] attacking Trevor because he is not a lawyer and is an ordinary guy and not from a high-class family? ” or the equally grand over blown “…Or, is it just another example of the Bajan crab mentality meant to pull down a parliamentary candidate who is popular with his constituents?”.
Reality check: This is election season and in ALL such places every word from a politician – particularly the most vocal and popular – will be examined and hypa-ventilated to create favor or disfavor. That’s as basic as drawing breath every day.
Why come here because of your friendship with Prescod to spew such undiluted biased verbiage.. he is a politician and a big boy , he signed up for this and surely gives as well as he gets. Just saying!
-
“In the West we are way too tolerate of official corruption.”
Exactly…the dumbest among us, the yardfowls, believe their respective political masters being corrupt is cute, no matter that the corrupt practices leave them and their progeny in poverty for decades….dumb is dumb…
the west is too careless and lackadaisical and should follow the Asian template re corrupt politicians, just a matter of time before a request surfaces, when it has reached boiling point, which is now..

@Hal, I don’t intend to be impolite or disrespectfully but for a man who had a profession in journalism and as an editor too I am sometimes COMPLETELY dumbfounded and bewildered by your remarks, for example , “By the way, when did I mention race?”
I can only imagine that you read my post quickly and did not properly take in what was said because in no context were my remarks which included the race reference attributed to you…it was merely part of the intro to the point of that sentence….(aparrently poorly written on my part, alas).
And this is where I am not intending to be overly disrespectfully, but too MANY of your posts here are representative of that careless and indeed callous disregard for what is being actually said…maybe it’s only me but boy you can be incoherent for a man of your background. Others I can understand …but YOU a former journo.
I was going to take you up on the remark on the Jeff blog re the car registration, as your example blew me away again a somewhat callous disregard for clarity and tone…. but not me and that…you may start to think I am trolling you or something. I gone, hear!

Well Well, I reach here now. The fact is that the Politicians in Bim have EXTORTED $$$$$$ from Whites and others for a very long time. NO need to remind wunna of what the Customs people do or why they are living in 5-6000 sq ft homes in Beverley Hills , formerly Shop Hill, among other locations. None of them give a RODENTS RECTUM for other Black Bajans, there are their with the objective of their very own Net Worth Enhancement. Having reminded of these facts, I understand the the Jada boys are pushing hard to retain their political pals, the DEMonic Larceny Party! This is all about CORRUPTION not RACE! Wunna know full well that these parasites dont give a RH for anybody but themselves. The DLP has been subpar since the Dippa and Cammie departed.The partry should have been buried wid dem so.

@Pacha
Two academics from Cave Hill coincidentally are discussing the issue of vote buying and corruption in Barbados. The issue is wider than race.
-
MoneyB…someone told you I was asking for you, ya got here real fast, hahaha
That is why I quoted you, I knew you would not be shy about sharing information about the corrupt extortion/extortee/briber/bribee relationship between politicians of both political parties and minority business people.
But moneyB…no minister of government or politician can extort anything from me, there is more than enough blame to share between extorted and extorter…they both love that game of corruption or the whites would have put an end to it 3 decades ago, so there is no excuse in being just as corrupt as your garden variety politician or minister at the expense of the majority population, just look at what ALL of them are getting now.
As much as we would love to keep race out of it, it’s the majority black population suffer because of these criminal relationships, rarely the few white minorities on the island feel hardship, so basically it’s because of the greedy actions of the goats loitering outside parliament doors and won’t leave and the goats waiting to get in…..there is now a level of unsustainable hardship on the people as a whole and felt mostly by the majority…combined with the total mismanagement of the economy for 10 years..
-
Caswell will be pleased to hear that UWI, CAVE HILL academic Barrow-Giles agrees with him that there have been obvious breeches in the electoral system by political parties with no action by the government agency responsible.
-
I have seen some civil servants with very impressive properties on the island, only to hear that is #3 of 5 properties owned etc…they have done well…
.I should explain what I said, the reason why no minister, politician or lawyer on the island can ever extort me, is because I am always wired for sound and that’s because of dishonest lawyers, so there is no way I will meet with any of those three individuals and dont be wired, I send the lawyers a copy of any recordings after, because they lie too much and I want no part of their corrupt practices.
You never meet with those whom you know are corrupt, without being wired for sound, everyone else you give respect, but not those who are corrupt.
-
“I understand the the Jada boys are pushing hard to retain their political pals, the DEMonic Larceny Party!”
They got a lot to lose, as you know well enough, the quickest people to go broke are the dishonest ones who present themselves as millionaires, magnets and moguls… there is a movement afoot to make sure they lose their house slaves, wreck that one way gravy train, it is time.
ah can’t wait for June.
-
Let me put it another way see if it generates feedback:
Would Maloney, Cow, Bjerkham, Tempro, Harris, Parris and all those known to engage in corrupt dealings on the island with politicians and members of parliament still feel entitled to commit these acts against the people had the population been 280,000 WHITE people instead of 280,000 BLACK people…remember yall are saying it has nothing to do with race….
so hypothetically imagine the minority population being 7,500 Black people instead of 260,000 people, imagine how that would play out…tell me who would be controlling the economy, parliament and tell me how many blacks you see in the 7,500 minority population of blacks controlling white ministers, all the businesses or controlling anything, with a white controlled parliament.
….so would they all still feel comfortable committing these corrupt crimes without fear and feeling there would be no consequences in that hypothetically setting ?
….a simple question….yes or no
-
Left out one, gotta flight the script sometimes, look at other angles, keep the brain engaged..
Would Maloney, Cow, Bjerkham, Tempro, Harris, Parris, Bizzy and all those known to engage in corrupt dealings on the island????????…..
