You can now listen to Antigua News articles!
Hold onto your hats folks because the United Progressive Party (UPP) is back with another installment of their “small business pull-up” comedy routine!
Get ready for some knee-slapping, eye-rolling and downright cringeworthy moments as we dive into the UPP’s latest attempts to hoodwink the people of Antigua and Barbuda.
Let’s start with their “vigorous campaign” leading up to the 2023 general election.
The UPP paraded through communities, promising to bolster small businesses but in true comedic fashion they somehow managed to spend more on the photo ops and gas than on the actual businesses they visited.
It’s like they were playing a real-life version of Monopoly but instead of buying houses, they were buying selfie sticks and two dollar items.
And the worst part? As soon as the election was over, their “wonderful” support for small businesses vanished quicker than a magician’s rabbit in the hat. It’s almost as if they were trying to pull a three-card trick on the entire country but instead of using playing cards, they were using empty promises and a whole lot of hot air.
But wait, there’s more! The UPP’s antics didn’t stop there. They even managed to resurrect their small business pull-up support nonsense during the bi-election in St. Mary’s South in 2023. Talk about a failed repeat performance!
It was like watching a bad sitcom where the writers just couldn’t come up with any new material. Pulling up and spending $20 between 30 people? Make it make sense.
And now, the UPP has set their sights on the political demise of Sir Robin Yearwood, the nation’s longest-serving parliamentarian and MP for St. Philips North.
A distinguish gentleman who has dedicated his life to national service and the betterment of our people.
This band of merry clowns are using their “small business pull-up” initiative to try and score some cheap political points? It’s like they’re playing a game of political chess, but they’re using checkers pieces on Snakes and Ladders board.
Seriously, folks, the UPP’s tactics have become so predictable, you could set your watch by them. It’s like they’re stuck in a loop, constantly making grand promises before an election, only to abandon them as soon as the votes are counted. It’s enough to make you wonder if they’re auditioning for a role in a comedy troupe rather than running for political office.
So, to all the small business owners out there, beware of the UPP’s promises – they’re about as reliable as a three-legged bicycle. And to the voters, remember, the next time the UPP comes knocking with their “small business pull-up” antics, just laugh in their faces and tell them to try something new – maybe a comedy routine?
The question is… What is ABLP doing to help small businesses?
While reading this “open letter” I felt like I was reading a play written by an ABLP clown and it actually turned out to be so. I wasted my time, energy and my phone battery reading this crap. You guys need to come better than this. I think I need to find an Archie comic book to read instead, it makes better sense. You are a CLOWN just like the rest of the ABLP.
Numbers don’t lie! to the self hating crew,,,,all you guys did in 10 years was underperform and spread HATE amongst regional brothers and sisters and the nation woked up and realize the scapegoat you were using wasn’t the problem,,,, you’re just not as good as the other side that’s why they went 28 yrs and with you self hating people as the only worthy opposition they can go 28 more 😊
If the UPP small business PULL-UP is not good, how come ABLP is copying it but calling theirs a POP-UP?
