OPINION: Vincentians are not into Freedom they are into Free Stuff
By Nathan ‘Jolly’ Green, April 14, 2020.
I once asked a workman at Buccament, “who are you voting for?” He said I am voting ULP. He said the leader he gives us building materials, T shirts, and other goodies.
I asked him but do you approve of the leader as a man, how about all the accusations of rape and sexual assault. He replied, I am a Vincentian, and Vincentians like nasty not nice, we will never vote for someone like Eustace because he is too nice.
I took two steps backward and looked him in the eye and said have you got children? Four he said. Don’t you wonder about the future for your children, do you think they deserve nasty in preference to nice. He said no, my parents and grandparents voted Labour, as a family we will always vote Labour.
I was choking back an eruption, in a trembling voice I asked “but how about if the Unity Labour Party has nothing to do with the old St Vincent Labour party”. How about if they are really a communist party who have adopted labour in their name because the word communist in their title would not be accepted by the Labour voters.
With that his boss came out of the office, old Vincentian family of the slave owner class, a big land owner, business man, and known ULP supporter.
He asked me why I was talking such crap to his workman. He said I have been listening and you are obviously a Ralph hater. I couldn’t argue with him, I wanted to buy something from him that I could not get anywhere else on the island. So I back-peddled told him what I wanted, he said I don’t have that. So I walked to my car, kind of wounded.
As I put the window of my car down the workman came up close and whispered, I have got one at home, then handed me a piece of cardboard with his name, phone number and address. I looked at him and said no thanks I like nice, not nasty.
Later when I studied the business card [ha ha] noting that the workman came from the Windward side, Three Rivers, I began to understood his ignorance, and the biting of the hand that fed him.
The shame is this is the kind of person the ULP attracts, it’s nothing to do with politics, it’s all to do with emulation of the leaderships nastiness, linked to getting something for nothing.
It just shows there are many Vincentians that are still unaware that the ULP is in fact the MNU party who simply put a new cloak on with a sign saying ULP.
Today my advice to Vincentians, stop taking bribery based building materials. Start to like and love nice again, like the old folk did.
If you really love the Labour movement, start a new political party, call it ‘The Real Labour Party’, free of dynasties, loving nice and loving the people, importantly free of nasty.
A party that Vincentian Labour lovers can freely love without the lies and deceit currently wrapped in the cloak of the Unity Labour Part.
For me I am backing the NDP, because they have the people who I think are truthful and have the old fashioned honesty that I expect from a party that will honestly respect the people, all the people.
Since God is a God of truth (Deuteronomy 32: 4) and His Son Jesus Christ is The way, the truth and the life (John 14: 6) it is not surprising that He hates all forms of untruths from black and white lies to false oaths and witnessing.

While some Vincentians, driven by that receipt of election bribes, are sure quick to forgive the Ralph Gonsalves regime for the moral decline Jolly, keep in mind Jolly that decent Vincentians could never be so persuaded so as to abandon that time honoured respect for profoundly good morality.
A respect for the God given morality that was handed down to them by their forebears. They thus can never be so persuaded to be particularly quick to forgive the Gonsalves regime for the damage that they have done to the very basic moral and economic fabric of their society. However, does this budding dynastic regime feel any guilt at all? Or does the immoral ever find the need for constraints, remorse or regret?

Indeed, like his pals Fidel Castro of Cuba, Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías of Venezuela, Muammar Mohammed Abu Minyar Gaddafi of Libya Ralph, Ralph Gonsalves too will soon be expected to give his account at the grand assizes in the sky and judging by his actions, he too will not have made ready himself.
Please I need more people who are willing to participate in the videoing of the mass bribery of the Vincentian people with building materials during the run up to the forthcoming election.
The operation of a sham reason called Lives to Live in the giving away of these building materials, is just that a sham.
I want people to video the trucks queuing at the storage yards, registration numbers, being loaded, on the road, unloading, the recipients names and addresses. I want phone videos also of the proposed issuing of the acquisition notes or delivery notes. Please, records of anything and everything. This will be turned into an international film featuring bribery of the Vincentian people. It will be screened locally, regionally, and internationally, particularly in the US and UK.
I will not expose any helpers identities. but for the good of international laws and decency your help is required.
I will also give you my postal box address in Grenada a little nearer the time.
Any professionals that wish to participate please contact me.
Students, are also encouraged to help with this project, your future and that of your country is at dire risk from bribery.
Remember democracy dies in darkness and SVG is being bathed in it politically.

ps any videos of unloading at the port and the places of current storage will be gratefully received
Please be discreet and stay safe
