De People of God-win De Elect-shun

IF AH EVER NEEDED sum-ting to mek me proud to be Vincy, elect-shun night, November 27th, 2025 was my proudest moment since ah born. Was like de loser was doing everything to have de elect-shun post-poned, but my

Vin-see people remained calm and resolute. All during de elect-shun calmpain, was like madness.

Mentally, ah still hearing loud speakers blasting left, right, top and bottom. And dem trumpets ( toy horns) blowing non stop! Ah got scared one night ah heard de axed-PM’s voice down at de Grammar School Playing Field, giving his supporters instruct-shuns how and what to do on de polling night when de votes start counting. He was not inviting his supporters to midnight mass. Sounded more like midnight massd-ness ‘Bout ah week before voting, is like de Lord sent Anil Roberts, ah Junior Housing Minister in Karma-Law’s T’n’T, He’s Mr. POP-YULAW Maylee Talk Show Demon, calls himself “Douglar Politics”, was he who turn tings around, when he buss de bomb wid de housing scandal involving our axed-PM’s family members.

Right away de tide change!

All cell- phones, TV, Face Book So-Shall Me-dey-yah viewers, tuned onto T’N’T.

And simple as dat, de whole ah Vincy pick up ah vibes and de slogan was “Get rid ah dem!”

Trinny-Daddy-Toe-Bigoooh” and Mr Anil, we thank you!

Way was Me-Yah Mothlee when Chatoyer, Mc Intosh, Sherriff Lewis, Hinds, Bertha Mutt-lee Martin Durham, Chester Bulze, Beryl Ollivierre and Lydia Laidlow led de 1935 Struggle?

DE ELECTORATE VOTED PARTY FOH CHANGE Dey’s no doubt in my mind dat inspite of all de fill-ah-bus-string bout ah lot ah bribes being passed out, de elect-suns was fought and won on party lines.

Yuh name could be from de Bible or de Royal Reader family, what surfaced was dat de time had come foh ah change, out wid de (25 year) ole and in wid de new. To show it was party and not names, individuals or faces, lets begin at de beginning wid CANDID-DATES: Three Johns: Shevern and Andrew of NDP, dey won handsomely! while ULP’s Darron John lost! ULP invested $140, 000.00 on Faith; Hope but lost wid ULP’s Grace. Biblically, Grace supposedly is ah Gift dat cannot be bought!

Dis one is funny. ULP’s Callous James vs NDP’S Key-sure Shallow; De name James is big in de Bible while NDP’s Shallow was

melted-down by de Axed-ULP leader as “ ah Punty Jack-Ass!” but ULP’s James lost two ah de bigger names in de Bible- Caesar ULP lost to NDP’s Israel! Likewise Two Saints as in ULP’s St Clair Prince and NDP’s St Clair Leacock.

ULP’s Prince lost to NDP’s Phillip ah disciple.

And ULP’s Fraser suffered ‘lost’ big time to NDP’s Major Leacock!

Dey was Royalty ah King and ah Prince in de battle. His Royal or Majesty.

ULP’S Curtis King in West St George, lost in every polling stay-shun to NDP’s Cupid as in de God of love!. Luke is ah big Doctor in de Bible, and maybe Luke Browne is immune to de illness FITZ.

ULP’s Luke Browne lost to NDP Fitz Gerald Bramble again foh de 3rd consecutive time.

Lie-Za says we would have seen de first and last appearances of ULP’s slate of LOSERS: Shevern Stewart Southern Grenadines, Grenville and Callous Williams of South Leeward and Northern Grenadines respectively ULP’s Dr Brewster who lost painfully to NDP’s Conroy Huggins needs to see Hell’t minister Dan Cummings foh Greace Walters.

Incidentally NDP Daniel Cumming faced-off wid ULP Peter (s), Prophet vs Apostle.

Ah repeat dat de electorate saw party and experience, no discrimination against age or opposite sex.

So ULP’s Peter (s) lost.

NDP Neptune failed to beat ULP’s stripped General who lost all of his Five Stars .

And thank God it’s Friday (winner takes it All). De new Prime Minister Fry- dey has ah list of immediate “to Do’s’, just proceed immediately. Congrats NDP!

SVG’S 2025 General Electshun, de people of God-win! And wid dat is gone ah gone again.
