    This is their only route to change the government. I wonder if our recent family “vacation” to Jamaica had recruitment plans as part of the agenda. Don’t be fooled by his fooly, nerdy look. If he can convince the demonic leadership that he too has balls, then maybe, just maybe he might be able to rrplace the former ABLP incumbent who at least has proved himself according to their demonic code by killing at least one Antiguan citizen, and a woman at that. Antiguans had better wake up.

      This is the problem — people like you are the problem!!! Instead of putting heads together and working towards a solution, IT’S POLITICS AS USUAL!!! That man you’re referring to, LOVES HIS COUNTRY — THIS COUNTRY! You might want to look at those at the helm instead — after all they had a gang at one time! All ridiculousness aside, this is no time for casting aspersions! WE HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND WE ALL HAVE TO WORK TOWARDS A SOLUTION!!🤨
