What about the 3 man panel advise to cabinet to "open the doors of the power plant"? Did caribarena ask them to go see the documents and power plant yet? What about Observer media? What about our opposition? What are ya'll waiting for to ask for the documents and visit to the plant??? Didn't they say they will be made available???

Mr. Alister Thomas, your appointment officially begins today, 15th, August, 2012. PLEASE SECURE THE PERTINENT DOCUMENTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. These should/MUST include all from the feasibility study to the present.
You wanted to set things right according to your previous "life" as a Pan Africanist.
Now, that you have been baptised all over again, found salvation in the Church of Politricks under the auspices of the Rev. Dr. Doctor B. Spencer, PM, please do as the Lord would, and deliver the TRUTH unto His People for they have sinned and is in need of guidance. The good information is in your hands. DELIVER YOUR SERMON, SPREAD THE WORD, WE WANT TO SING HALELU, HALELU, HALELU

Really,you,ll should just keep your mouths shut,this thing with you all trying to justify this is next to treason,it really isnt funny anymore,you all should be ashamed.@ Concerned, FYI,it has already failed,where are you? In lala land,are u benefitting from it? We will not rest until we get justice for this one,so you all may as well just shut your eyes/minds whenever people start talking about this issue,It isnt going away.

Caribarena, keep shining the light, no matter where. Keep ensuring that we pay attention to whats happening in our name. You help in ensuring that we are properly informed which is necessary for a healthy democracy

The plant owl,that is the bottom line.Time for A,gua to hold the APUA responsible,may be then we will get some answers.They are the ones we pay the ridiculous bills to,time for a boycott.Sometim es in order to acheive,there must be sacrifice.

Or the song by Babyface

How come, how long
It's not right, it's so wrong
Do we let it just go on
Turn our backs and carry on
Wake up, for it's too late
Right now, we can't wait
ANU won't have a second try
Open up your hearts
As well as your eyes

**how long** » 2012-08-15 12:40

U2 song perfect for this:

I can't believe the news today, Oh, I can't close my eyes And make it go away. How long... How long must we sing this song? How long, how long...

The ALP, Lone wolf, and every other group that wants the truth should work together! ANOTHER MARCH I SAY, AND A REEEAAALL 1 THIS TIME. We dont care about blue or red, we want the truth! We want the corrupt men put in their place, and the old gen-sets put in their place, and the whole frig up government system in its place! enough is enough.

Taxpayers, this power plant belongs to you! it is your property, like your car, like your home. DEMAND THE TRUTH.

**the joker** » 2012-08-15 12:33

if the plant isn't old, it's worthless anyways. and it is old, so it doesn't matter. In any other country people would be sitting in tents around the goddamn building until they get answers. the amount of people and comments on the Lester Bird step down story vs this one shows what antiguans and barbudans really care about.
Eric, while your paying for the fuel, don't forget to add $169,811 USD to that. the RMB has gone up, Antigua and barbudans, open your wallets wide.

300,000,000.0 Chinese Yuan Renminbi = 47,169,811.3208 US Dollar

**the solution** » 2012-08-15 11:30

Eric, I found the solution! maybe you can pay the $246,000! After all, this is only drama right? no big deal? So what if the power plant needs another quarter million dollars of fuel every month? No body should care, you've got us covered. Oh, or I know, maybe you can run on a little bicycle and make electricity while 5 of the 6 engines we paid 47 MILLION united states dollars for are down. That way, we won't have the get electricity from independent power producers (the point of the WPP), and you can get some exercise! Work off the fat belly you've grown since the UPP came into office.

I don't know about you, but I can't see no drama here, just engines down and more problems as the supposedly new power plant. :cry:

**Eric** » 2012-08-15 11:03

Caribareina – You are full of DRAMA – You are making a real effort to keep the power plant issue alive.
The Antiguan people are becoming wise to you.

**Smoke n Mirrors** » 2012-08-15 10:00

Ah so Antiguans love it. Dem like mediocrity and apparently they liked to be "hood winked" too. David Shoul is a lxxixixy to this country. All of self and nothing for Antigua. You ever heard his business sponsoring anything in Antigua? Even Cool & Smooth sponsor sports.

When will we know the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Will Alister Thomas grant us access to the WPP documents? Will Baldwin be held accountable for blatantly declaring that he broke the law (i.e. not receiving Parliamentary approval). More questions than answers. :sigh:

**Concerned** » 2012-08-15 09:57

It really seems like people i rooting for this power plan to fail.

**Flames** » 2012-08-15 08:14

What you expect? Blood? Wine? Go and take some more pictures...and if the front door locked...what you do?...What you do?...Kick in de back door!

**Jackie Spense** » 2012-08-15 08:11

Why don't you do an interview with David Shoul - since he was the one who negotiated the purchase of the engines?
