Excerpt from MP Asot Michael’s April 15th, 2010 presentation to the people of St John’s Rural West
Baldwin Spencer whose seat in the Antiguan and Barbuda Parliament has been declared vacant by the court, is promising to plunge the country into religious war better known to the global campaign against terrorism as a “JIHAD” through which he wants to start “CLEANSING”.
“I want to say tonight right here at Green Bay School in the constituency of St John’s Rural West, from tomorrow the situation change… We have had enough… and from tomorrow, the war will start… I don’t know how much longer I have but for whatever period remains we are going to have to deal with the situation… All joke stop now… And I am saying to my ministers we have to prepare to take action in all their ministries…
“Brother and sisters, this is war… I am in a fighting mood tonight… When it’s time for war, it’s time for war… I am saying it’s time for war… This is a just war, this is a religious war… I am serious, I am very serious… We must do what we have to do… the real fight is on… And as of tomorrow, we are going to begin the process of doing what we have to do… the process of cleansing will start tomorrow… that is the promise I am making…”
The angry and hopelessly out of control Spencer, spoke at an April 2010 town hall meeting in Green Bay
And he brought Errol Cort to justify waging war on public servants because the UPP believes they are ungrateful to be supporting the return of the caring governance policies of the Antigua Labour Party. Imagine that!
The poor people of this constituency need the basic necessities of food, clothing and shelter for their families… they need jobs… they need proper education… they need reliable health care… they need to break free from the suffering and pain they have been forced to endure under the uncaring and incompetent UPP regime… they need to be able to afford the burdensome cost of living that Baldwin Spencer has punished them with… They are crying out for help, they want the government to ease up on the hardships that condemn them to greater poverty with every passing day… And all Baldwin Spencer can offer is more hatred of Lester Bird, Gaston Browne, Asot Michael and the Antigua Labour Party… and the angry cry of war
You cry out for peace… Baldwin wants war
You cry out for justice… Baldwin wants war
You cry out for an end to crime and violence… Baldwin wants war
You cry out for food on your table… for money in your pockets… Baldwin wants war
He has deprived you of millions of dollars that could have been spent for the benefit of the people of this constituency… He corruptly used those millions of dollars of the people’s money to hound us in the courts for the past five years. All he has to show for this outrageous abuse of public funds is a series of defeats in judgments of the court that confirm he is recklessly wasting the people’s money to finance his agenda of hate and his obsession with war
With every chest beating declaration of war, this man is hopeful that he can use the power of the state to intimidate us into submission.
He dreams… For, we are not afraid… The Antigua Labour Party is not afraid. As the song says: “If dem ah come let dem come… Labour is protected by the Most High One…”
The only man who is afraid is Winston Baldwin Spencer.
He is afraid because the courts have spoken… his election last year was invalid… null and void… in other words he is now relying on legal technicalities to hang on for dear life to a seat he did not win
He is afraid because the people have spoken… the people have said, loud and clear, that he can’t run the country and so he must give the leadership back to the Antigua Labour Party
This great Deceiver knows the Black March marked the beginning of the end for his trickery and deception of the proud people of Antigua and Barbuda particularly the extremely patient constituents St John’s Rural West.
