Colonialism was the opposite of transparency and accountability. It was an unaccountable dictatorship of the minority.<br /><br />Fortunately for us, the Hon Hubert Hughes has promised that he will not permit the administration to continue business as usual. I am confident that he will do as he promised and insist that the Speaker establish the Public Accounts Committee. This is his chance to call out the past administration in public and to wash their dirty laundry in public. <br /><br />This is the chance for the Hon Eddison Baird to call out the past administration over the airport overexpenditure and worse, in public. <br /><br />If they don't do it now, it will signal not a move to glorious independence but a continuation of our existing system of full internal misgovernment and maladministration.<br /><br />IDMidmitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08966173951425644722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-7019159942687970472010-07-11T10:25:45.545-04:002010-07-11T10:25:45.545-04:00You guys are the last vestiges of the Colonialism ...You guys are the last vestiges of the Colonialism under which you felt important, even though you were in fact only rejected 'wannabees'.<br /><br />Before the British can send an Administrator to "run our finances', they need to do two things: 1. accept responsibility for the current financial chaos in Anguilla perpetrated by the former AUF Administration under their watch and with their collusion, and 2. Fix their own financial mess. They are not in a position to criticize or dictate to anyone as they are in a worst position per capita ane per GDP than Anguilla is.<br /><br />But, you folks would wish them to step in because it grinds you that Hubert Hughes, the Champion of the ordinary People of Anguilla, a Nationalist and fervent anti-colonialist, is the Chief Minister and not your Oreo Cookie Party, the AUF. <br /><br />Come to terms with reality; the Colonial era is dead in Anguilla. Freedom is at hand. Anguilla, Bermuda, Caymans, Turks, and other Black colonies will be Free, sooner than you may wish.<br /><br />The cleansing process has begun.

This government has no intention of cutting spending so it may be better if the british sent in an administrator to run our finances, refused any more borrowing, no ministers, start afresh with a civil service that understands you can only spend what revenue you take in. i can see no other way for Anguilla to survive financially.<br />I really was hoping that a change in government would suffice but now i think the British should take over our finances, civil service and government.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-70214596338397734982010-07-03T11:00:08.594-04:002010-07-03T11:00:08.594-04:00They also have no interest in saving money.

A totally unnecessary expense in these hard times where governments should be looking for ways to reduce government spending. Watch how quickly that $50M approved borrowing gets wasted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37949944.post-39131987494767259172010-07-02T18:20:49.348-04:002010-07-02T18:20:49.348-04:00Hubert seems to care about "dialogue" on...Hubert seems to care about "dialogue" only when others have to do the listening.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
