Does the DLP Have a Credible Voice?

In recent days we have have had controversial Minister of Environment making the news. He appears to have taken umbrage to the decision by the government to re-purpose the Sanitation Headquarters built under his watch. One wonders who is the person he alleged prevented the opening of the building.  It appears he has overcome health concerns.

Before Lowe’s sighting last weekend President Verla De Peiza gave the government a failing grade. One has to accept that the DLP membership in its infinite wisdom selected De Peiza to lead the party and supported the effort by electing Irene Sandiford-Garner the deputy. Should onlookers conclude that an emboldened Lowe will be followed by former colleagues? What will their mouthings do to compromise the DLP rebuild after the shellacking in the last general election?

The following snippet was sent to the blogmaster’s inbox reported to be written by Political Consultant Reudon Eversley – Do you agree with the author?

So Verla, the perennial electoral loser, is giving the Mottley
government a failing grade in its first 500 days. The comment is not a
surprise. It reflects a new aggressive negative politics of doom
coming out of George Street. However, the comment  speaks volumes of
how far the once great party  — now a fringe group since the last
general election — has slipped into lalaland in the last year and
half. Verla should be speaking instead about how successful she has
been in turning around the fortunes of the Dems who are growing more
and more frustrated and desperate under her ineffective leadership. By
this time next year, if current rumblings are anything to go by, she
may very well be political history because the patience of those
waiting in the corridors is running out. After the Dems brought
Barbados to its knees in the stagnant post David Thompson period
because of failed leadership and incompetence, there could be no
overnight miracles. The comeback will be gradual but I am satisfied
that the rehabilitation of Barbados, not just economically but on all
fronts, is well underway. Clear signs are there. Confidence, for
example, is back. The only people not seeing it are the  Dems in
blinkers. Miss Mottley has done an admirable job. She has led from in
front. She is the chief marketer of Barbados internationally — an
important task neglected by the Dems in the previous 8 years. Miss
Mottley is growing in stature and respect on the world stage and it
will redound to the benefit of Barbados. Look at the prestigious
speaking engagements she is getting. Look at the positive press she is
also getting internationally.  In the region, Barbados is being
respected again. Friends in the region who  used to call and lament
the drift they were seeing under the Dems are making the most
complimentary comments about Barbados’ leadership again. I am
politically independent. Since resigning from the Dems over five years
ago because I did not wish to align myself with political failures, I
belong to no political party. I am a political professional and my
views are non-partisan. However, I am supporting Miss Mottley because
I want the best for Barbados and the performance of the Dems in their
last stint in government shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that they
are not the best for Barbados.

    So we have a 30-0 govt who was handed a mandate to govern barbados for the better now all up in arms because they were giving a failing grade
    Well instead of jumping up and down govt should have presented a score card of promises which they had made to the people as evidence of the promises being delivered
    But no they have a poochlicker writing a fake story telling people how much good has been done under Mia leadership
    The reason why Reudon Eversley can be so called a poochlicker is because he must be deaf and blind and living in la la land far away from hearing the cries of the people overburden with high taxes and cannot and have not receive one iotta of any of the campagain promises this govt made during the ten year period they were in the wilderness
    This guy must be high on laced koolaid or suffering from illusions of grandeur
    Eversley next time you stick your neck out to defend this govt say something that is true and avoid writing or uttering fake news

    Was the snippet sent anonymously? If not, who was the person who sent it, if not Mr Eversley? Let us have open and honest political debate. In my time Mr Eversley would have been asked to confirm or deny he was the author. So simple, just a telephone call away. But Bajans like speculating. Remember, Barrow was the father of independence.

    The notion that there is or was some ‘father of independence’ is merely a popular meme that idiots have made up.

    We have long had the diplomatic papers from that era and we now know with certainty that there was no real paternity to Barbados’ ‘independence’, certainly not EWB. Even the fiction of ‘independence’ has long been questioned.

    Has the ugly idiot from England never asked himself how come nearly 70 countries got this so-called independence within a 20 years period. How such an event represents a stark departure from all historical norms.

    The truth is that the Americans ran the British out of nearly its colonies and established an imperial system more controlling but without any responsibilities, after WW2.

    In order for our country to advance, people like HALTON AUSTIN are certainly worthy of death!

    what nonsense is that? many of my Bim family are crying out about the taxes and lack of buses and garbage pile up. many of my school friends whilst not expressing regret about voting for the BLP are equally fed up.

    they are encouraging their children to migrate. there is a lot of apathy in Bim. no gallivanting and giving soon to be forgotten speeches will change that any time soon. i doubt anything tangible will come of it

    the BLP are doing a lot, but a lot of it, is a scatter gun approach, hoping for some luck. good luck.

    whilst Verla and the DLP are still searching for relevance there is no need for one voice. plenty voices must point out MAM’s campaign promises and her governing nothingness.

    The idea that somebody somewhere should be looking to the DLP for a voice reminds this writer of the symbiotic relationship between serial abuser and abused. They need each other.

    And somebody here will have something to say to us about that we fear!

    But that there is somebody somewhere seeking to encourage the dead to rise represents an indictment of our country, eighteen months after the not uncertain castigation of the DLP by an overwhelming majority of Bajans.

    The country is sick!

With their bribers still colluding to rip off the majority population of what is rightfully theirs.

    Listen to these liars at your own risk, believe their lies at your own risk while the most vulnerable starve and the majority now teeter on the brink of being pushed into modern day slavery by these same thieves and liars.

    “whilst Verla and the DLP are still searching for relevance there is no need for one voice. plenty voices must point out MAM’s campaign promises and her governing nothingness.”
    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    It sounds more like a replay of the David Thompson’s tragic ‘comedy of errors’.

    Just hope the curtain in the theatre of folly is not prematurely letdown in similar circumstances surrounding the main actor in this déjà vu of disappointment.

    Isn’t Verla behaving in similar fashion (albeit with lower decibels) to what MAM was doing in 2008 to 2010 to prove her worth while in the shouting room of the LoO?

    When are gullible people like you going to realize that the Bajan political monopoly game between Twiddle Bee and Twiddle Dem is simply a case of 6 being half-dozen sitting in the musical chairs of hypocrisy and where there is no politician with sanctity deserving of a halo of glorification.

    Where have the portmanteau of evidence of financial improprieties by the previous administration disappeared to? Down the injection wells sunk on the south coast to create pit toilets?

    Politicians might have varying modus operandi of achieving their electoral success but their ultimate goal or destination is the unanimous drive towards the control of the taxpayers’ hard-earned money which legally gives them the power and some perceived god-given right to share this hoard of construction and supply contracts among their campaign financiers, family and friends, and at the bottom of the pecking order, the dregs to yard-birds like you, Ms Mariposa and Lord Enuff.

    If neither the past nor the current administration can even get the most simple of public service tasks like getting the detritus removed from the roads within a 48 hours timeframe of straightforward coordination of resources how on earth can you expect them to defuse the massive economic time bomb they are holding in the palm of their financially-empty hands?

    Do you really feel the ongoing fiasco at the port surrounding the simple operation of the clearance of goods for customs inspection should be made to appear as more of a challenge than sending a Bajan cow to the moon given the fact that there are highly-paid gurus called Czars of the IT breed on the consultancy payroll of the current administration?

    Now where is the value-for-money while the VAT is not being collected to stimulate the flow of both goods and services?

    Let me see if I am getting this correctly.

    There is no demand for additional lawyers in Barbados. Yet we produced 61 last year.

    There is a need for 1 store manager at Cost U Less, and that company is claiming that, in an extremely high unemployment environment, the country of Barbados has been unable to produce 1 store manager? Therefore, it has to import one?

    Are we serious?,

    De ole man IS NOT WISE LIKE WUNNA.

    I was did had to leave school at 11 years old and only grasp tings as a result of hearing de chilrun talking when dem do homework

    So all de highfaluting reasons heah will confuse me ESPECIALLY DE IDIOCY EXPRESSED BY MARIPOSA, the resident DLP jackasses (plural)

    Here are the instructions for measuring ambient temperature dat de ole man copy from one of de chilrun Geography books.

    “…The following directions apply to all types of thermometers, from classic mercury thermometers to new-age digital temperature sensors.

    Place the thermometer 5 feet above the ground (+/- 1 ft.). A thermometer too low will pick up excess heat from the ground and a thermometer too high will likely have too cool of a temperature due to natural cooling aloft. 5 ft. is just right.
    The thermometer must be placed in the shade. If you put your thermometer in full sunlight, direct radiation from the sun is going to result in a temperature higher than what it should be…”

    What is the purpose of this article?

    How many of its readers understand how it is a de facto measurement of “ambient temperature” and how the exact processes that are mentioned in the excerpt above are being utilized here in this blog article.

    “…A thermometer too low will pick up excess heat from the ground…” is likened to the asinine comments of the Cretin Mariposa aka AC.

    “…The thermometer must be placed in the shade…” parlayed into the addition of the comments of the turncoat Reuden Eversley who is now singing for his supper in this economic wilderness WHERE HIM GETTING WORK UNDER THIS BLP ADMINISTRATION MUST BE HARD AS SHY$E!!!

    Verla Depeiza DOES NOT HAVE THE REQUISITE GRAVITAS TO CAUSE THE DLP TO COALESCE INTO A NEW PARTY IN 5 YEARS!

    In fact, she does not have the skills to do this in 10 years.

    In addition to which she is dealing with a set of male chauvinist pigs who want “a man to run tings” therefore that internecine construct WILL KILL THE DLP.

    Plus DEM IS EQUALLY CLUELESS AS MUGABE MOTTLEY the jetliner (for certainly she is now as big as a RH jumbo jet)

    Mugabe’s 26 ministers strategy is built on the premise that 26 people “fishing” on a coterminous bank MUST FIND FISH!

    Fish which she, in one of her “come to Jesus moments” will try to divide up to feed the 5,000 civil servants she sent home!

    It is going to take time for her incompetence to be recognized by the people and sheeple BUT IN THE MEANTIME WE CAN CONTINUE TO EXPECT THESE TEMPERATURE COLLECTION EXERCISES!

    Serious about what?

    Like putting the decision-making money where the long-winded Bajan mouth is?

    Now you should be able to see why the governing political johnnies are overly deserving of an A+ Bajan cussing.

    Now where is the foreign exchanging earning potential to justify such a work permit for a man who is already on the job?

    Like ‘cussing’ pirates, Bajans are very good at talking about everything under the sun but runs away when the light of action appears on the scene.

    “We need to this” and “we need to do that” is the refrain of the Bajan policymakers.

    In short you lead off with a query to discuss the parliamentary options residing in and outside of the offal that is the BDLP.

    Then, 24 minutes later, instead of doubling down on a potentially deep lead in, you sidestep it with a non statement!

    The job is simply that of a shopkeeper looking after a store selling imported food and trinkets to Bajan forex-burning consumers.

    Barbados has its fair share of shopkeepers with the blood of the art of buying and selling still racing through the veins of the ‘mis-educated’ middleclass some of whose parents were well-known village shop operators.

They cannot even create a new narrative to mask their crimes. that is how LIMITED IN INTELLECT THEY ALL ARE…they know we know that the current DPP is just as corrupt as they are..wuh they put her there and are KEEPING HER THERE…yet they are sending ya to her.

    Nothing wrong with that “Price” if it is the ‘cost’ that must be incurred to earn or save foreign exchange which, according to Vincent C., is the lifeblood which “flows” through the entire body of the Bajan economy.

    No tax concessions should be granted to any ‘import-and retail’ outlets like the one in question. Let them swim in their own sea of open competition by passing on all costs (included taxes) to their consumers.

    Do you know how much it costs to maintain an expatriate shopkeeper compared to a locally-produced item of similar talent to the variety made from the A1 Bynoe fella?

    Most of you recall scenes from a movie where a plank or a tree stump or a rope is put across a chasm and people, with varying fears and competencies are required to traverse that chasm.

    And invariably, for various reasons, rope popping, person tiring, vertigo setting in, the pursuing creature cutting the plank, the person crossing fails.

    Crossing said adjoining plank takes time, confidence, skill and application.

    We would not put a baby on a tightrope between skyscrapers yet, for over 53 years, we, the electorate toss these political toddlers into this “bridge crossing exercise” and wonder why they fail.

    De ole man recalls this Stoopid Cartoon message for your viewing pleasure

    It speaks of the requirement for future parliamentary representatives to present their competencies BEFORE THEY GET ELECTED!

    Yet, as simple a requirement as this is, intelligent people still risking their lives AND the well being of the nation on guesswork and political incompetents.

    No mention of the most illustrious of them all, the schoolboy debater, the lawyer, the Opposition leader, the PM- David Thompson, (how quickly we forget). Wuh he is the one who institutionalized the “old Boys network” by bringing in countless “old boys” that one had never heard of (except the other old boys) to fill various positions in Gov’t organisations.

    Let King Jerome from Foundation’s great wall of fame forever remain as the embodiment of Humpty-Dumpty.

    Their failures and ‘in-competencies’ are always ossified like their bones.’

    First you will have to meet behind the rifle (shooting) range to determine who would be pulling the shitty end of the final straw.

    Better walk with your Broodhagen brand of boxing gloves for the shoot out.

    We have a govt who lanquished in the wilderness for ten years as opposition
    Having enough time to develop strategies which would have been beneficial in a period if or when elected
    However spent most of the ten years being critical
    Now that the rubber hits the road they seem confused and out of touch with reality
    Recently with all the garbage increasing mention was made by a minister of refocusing on a WTE plant
    I guess rats and commuincable diseases that is running rampage in the country might have open a couple brain cells
    making sense out of what Mia called nonsense
    Past govt was called to worst ever
    However what is now being seen and the realities of what are being felt on the ground would make past govt efforts relevant to barbados social enviroment

    @Pieces for a fella who left around first form you sure does present real, real smart… tis one thing to copy the temperatures instructions but quite another to frame this debate so sweetly re the hot and cold!😎

    You sure u din go right through to 6th like @Green at his place of ‘worship’.

    And re that upcoming service (excuse dis trivia David Mr B… it’s a ‘sequitar’)… Several years ago I was chatting wid a fella who went to that place and he was extolling about some plans he had in his new retirement status re his Alma Mater and clueless me said ‘so you will be doing something around the efforts and memory of your school’s only PM’ … there was deathly silence … the chat ended soon thereafter.

    Only when I found this site did I FINALLY understand his so complete deflation …

    All dat to say: I believe many dyed-in-the-wool folks from dat school have long lost their DT gloss!
