Dear Gassy Dread

As we are now approaching the general elections, I have began doing my assessment of both political parties & their track record.

Presently, I am not attached to either UPP or ABLP. However, it is my right & civic duty to exercise my franchise when that day comes.

So far, I am not convinced that UPP is ready. It is very evident that they have been caught with their pants down and are now trying to get their act in order at this late stage.

As for ABLP, I am left here wondering if they are now rebranded as ABPLP (Antigua & Barbuda Progressive Labour Party ). When I look at the candidates on the ABLP slate, I am seeing about 9 individuals who were considered to have strong allegiance to UPP.

I do understand that numbers matters, hence your political door will be open to accept whatsoever may come.

However, I am a bit baffled as to why you have welcomed them in and propelled these individuals to the top of your administration especially those who have just arrived.

Question: Are their hearts really pure and why overlook qualified persons who have been dedicated to the ABLP party?

I will admit that your decision does not sit well with me. Is it that you are intimidated by these MEN in BLUE? Who next will you be offering such royalties to? I am sure many more persons share the same sentiment & asking the same question.Last election you got my vote, this time around consider me off of that list.
