    Now having read BU’s PICKS…..On this one again …I am convinced David and Co. got it wrong….No way I say no way is Sandra behind …as a matter of fact ..this is going to be very much like the Sutherland\Suckoo St.George seat… will issue in the SWING……Donville will not retain this seat nor Suckoo….They are in the cradle lap of some of the most affect by Stuart’s austerity measures..the middle class and the lower middle class.

    I would wish if both candidates could find time and weigh in …with their views and incorrectness of BU’s picks.

    onions. Are you basing this on Sandra’s ability or Donville’s lack of?
    Head to head it seems like a close race with Donville in front. The others should take a page out of his book.

    - Win by a little bit
    - work hard as hell in your constituency
    - Put your money where your mouth is
    - Run your ministry well despite unpopular decisions
    – openly cuss the opposition regularly for their “foolishness”
    - criticise your own party members for their timidity
    - Consolidate all the above as reasons for getting back in AND
    - position yourself for higher heights in the near future.

    Classic politics 101.

    Donville may have more money…and more Photo Op’s..but Sandra holds a greater personality than he….For starters.Donville has a history..Sandra don’t. She is a better speaker….you must agree…She has a track record as a Senator and SBA president…who was the watershed….in the small business kickoff.She is known to many small upcoming businessmen and women as a hard worker …..called into fair play ..many times during that era… Finally there is the swing… by my calculation a 5%…..we almost home with this baby don’t you think ? No need to debate Suckoo.. by all n large…she gone.

  4. Observing (and listening for a bell) | May 26, 2012 at 1:56 PM |

    Question still remains….what’s the feel and mood on the ground in SJS and in relation to the party(ies). Sandra would need a coattail or two to bring it home. If she has Liz and co. from 2003 doing field work for her, then I may accede to the possibility of victory. Time will tell.

  5. old onion bags | June 6, 2012 at 4:28 PM |

    This seat will be the icing on the cake…when Donville gets his….FUNDY going feel vindicated…..retribution going be sweet…BTW…we all know SJS was always a BLP stronghold…..300 seats going be a cracker jacker for Sandra…..IT WILL SIGNAL the end…..smile all bout from both sides.

    Inniss seems to be winning the battle for air time at the moment.

    Hopefully Husbands is offsetting by putting in the work on the ground.

  8. old onion bags | June 30, 2012 at 7:52 PM |

    Congrats to Sandra Husbands on the successful launching and timely opening of her Branch Office last night. With over 700 people in attendance..if this be any indication …you are well on the way to taking over this seat.Well organized as usual , you have showed your intent to be a force to be reckoned with .

  10. NationBLPnewspaper | July 2, 2012 at 7:37 AM |

    Research on the Nation newspaper’s coverage of BLP branch meetings has shown the following :

    Anytime Arthur speaks at a branch meeting, he is to be placed on the most prominent places in the Nation newspaper – Front page, back page or page 3. This will happen on the day following the meeting and there will be follow up stories on the Tuesday and Wednesday.
    It happens every time like clockwork. Check for yourself.
    Every single time, some might even be tempted to suggest that he has a direct say and influence in the Nation’s newsroom via the editor,his close friend Kaymar Jordan.
    The truth will come out eventually about how the BLP and the Nation newspaper leadership have merged their efforts as they both have the same goal.
    Kaymar Jordan is clearly Owen Arthur’s puppet and willingly so.

    i cant see Donville Inniss losing to Husbands-how many Husbands running?- Inniss has emerged as a legitmate potential leader among the young Turks on both sides. The country needs him in the House. Sandra Husbands comes across as a limp biscuit. Inniss should retain his seat on merit and as an emerging leader.

  12. The lost one.... | August 26, 2012 at 10:57 PM |

    Inniss is a decent man and an excellent manager. He should retain his seat and thankfully so as we need people like him in parliament.

    Good luck Donville.

    Having listened to Chris’ speech at Donville’s Office, all I am hearing is (like ac)….the same ole same ole….Global Recession to blame,DLP meet a Perfect Storm, Hard times always hitting we, OSA old, he only want power, Nuttin wrong wid Stuart, and the now infamous beg..”man give we another chance, as we went get enuff time.” ….cheezon Chris the rhetoric wear thin..Is this representative of the party’s election strategy?…well bud, if so… that would be the Kenny Worse.

    @ old onion bags | September 10, 2012 at 8:37 AM |

    Onions, you got to take your hat off to Chris, though.
    The man said he is all foursquare behind his man who few months ago he was stabbing in the back.
    Let me tell you the plan Chris and the others (including Don) has for Jerome. This is a plan hatched by both Hartley H and Peter W and presented to both Buffoon Chris and the porno Don.

    Pretend to be foursquare behind Freundel to fool the jackasses called the voters. Don will be next to express his unswerving support and public approval of his dear great leader. Once this façade is established and we win back the government the next day we the majority will no longer be the Eager 11 but the Empowered 16 to oust FS by expressing a no confidence in him and the GG will have no alternative than to accept our decision to appoint Chris as leader and Don his deputy. After all, The GG would not want to see the country go through another set of general elections in 21 days just after the “mother of all battles”. Hartley will be given a seat in the senate with ministerial powers to boot. Peter to be made an ambassador; preferably to the UK where his lifestyle is par for the course.

    Peter W also suggested the hugging up of Jerome in public but Chris the oil slick kid said he ain’t mind sipping ‘pink’ champagne with a leper for the world to see or kissing up with Mia but he ain’t hugging from behind no big ugly man in public for them women to laugh at he.

    @ Miller
    It appears….Donville has used this “meeting of two alike minds” to counter the two spot meets had by the BLP in West Terrace and Queens College. I have been hearing this now for awhile…’two partners’. ….Do you mean they could not have held this ‘spot meeting’ on the pasture 100m away (overlooking UWI)…PUBLICLY and save David BU having to advertise and report back? Seems like only certain minds are seeing alike…..despite the ” I backing FDS 100%” chant……The question still begs why hold a spot meeting in a constituency office?Is this a fallout of a heads gine roll promise? Are other speakers not in for a spot meeting? A gag order maybe or a breaking of sorts?. If this was meant for certain ears, then why the non-selective media invite as is accustomed? Something thwangy here with this one…

  19. old onion bags | September 10, 2012 at 10:04 AM |

    @ Miller
    …another question..since opening elections season…have there been any other spot meetings by the DLP ? If so why not ? BLP had about 10…

    I like Sandra on a personal level, but this politics thing is such a horrible thing for an otherwise good human being. Women in politics do NOT stand a chance of making any kind of impact on anything. IT IS A MAN’S (BLOOD) SPORT. Women are there to win seats and that is all. They will accomplish nothing particularly under the likes of Owen Arthur, and that is a pity. She will be forced to toe the line and will be lucky to leave the game with her pride in tact.

  23. Realists from Haynsville | October 20, 2012 at 1:21 PM |

    Sandra, be though not afraid, I know that you will be victorious because you are a honest person and you genuinely cares for the residents of St. James South and their livelihood and for that we the people of St. James South will elect you to represent us

    Mine is a family of firsts – my grandfather was one of the first black Barbadians to bottle and market his own rum, and he ran a shop labeled by villagers as the Nuff Pork Shop which succoured Barbadians from miles around through the depression period. My memories are of my grandmother, co-owner of that bustling shop, feeding as many as 30 people daily from her kitchen;

    Should we privatise the Port?
     
    A familiar voice speaks about Port workers and the Union
     
    Listen on you tube –
     

     
    It’s difficult to find a brutally honest public figure these days.
     
    The call to PRIVATISE the Barbados Port Authority and send home all of those workers is understandable.
     
    It seems like they take long to do jobs and are involved in a high level of _ _ _ _ _.
     
    Sincerely

    These people, whether they are from the DLP or the BLP in Barbados or Obama in the USA who trade incessantly on the insecurities of desperate people by peddling HOPE – are criminals. Our real hope should be that we wake up to the insidious nature of these criminals. In this respect they are no different that the religious stake oil salesmen who promised milk and honey in an unknown place in the bye and bye, while they live the good life in the here and now off the bones of the poor.

    *******************
    How many “Nuff Pork” shops existed in Barbados? The only “Nuff Pork’ shop that I knew of was in Vauxhall, Christ Church run by a Mrs. Waltruss? It was called by that name due to the copious amount of salt meat dispensed to the customers for a small pittance (probably a few pence) those were the days before ECC or Barbados currency.
