Exhume Noel Lloyd body & ‘placed in his park’- Hon Julian Fraser
While honoring the late Lloyd, Hon Fraser called for his body to be exhumed and reburied in the Noel Lloyd Positive Action Movement Park in Road Town, the capital city.
The veteran politician noted that when you travel around the word you see these things, “erect a national monument for Mr. Llyod in his park, exhume his body from wherever it is, and place it in the park,” he opined.
Hon Fraser said he knows that “there will be pushback on this idea but when you travel you see these things around the word”. He added, “When you hear in America about Presidential Libraries the bodies of these Presidents are buried right in their Libraries.”
Mr Lloyd was not crazy- Hon Fraser
While making his presentation on the motion, Hon Fraser also noted that some say, “Noel Lloyd was crazy, but he was not, he did what he had to do to stay out of jail.”
He also called on the Government of the day to “form a committee in the HoA to be responsible for national heroes as the district representatives will know best who are our national heroes”, but this does not mean “the executive will not have a role to play” he stated.
However, Mr. Fraser admitted the HoA may not have the capacity to carry out this function. The five-term legislator (1999-current) also mentioned some former French countries in Africa that were colonized and still today, despite their independence, have to pay money to their former slave master France.
Hon Fraser noted that “no one in the world is talking about this, not even the United Kingdom”, because they can’t talk about it because “they have us here in the BVI colonized”.
Hon Fraser noted that there are “a lot of forward-thinking people in the Virgin Islands, however, the challenge is to bring them along”.
Today monday, October 16, 2023, is a public holiday in celebration of Heroes & Foreparents Day.

The spirit and soul already left the body at the moment of death and there is no more body remaining either way.
Exodus 20:4-5:
“You must not make any idols. Don't make any statues or pictures of anything up in the sky or of anything on the earth or of anything down in the water. Don't worship or serve idols of any kind, because I, the LORD, am your God.”
A social construct is a definitely defined policy, idea, developed by a group with power, influence, etc control another group with no or little power. Social construct sets the relationship between groups. Colonialism is an extractive, exploited, exclusionary, violent, brutal, dehumanizing, special entitlements and privileges -driven, racial superiority, etc institution.
Eh! Em!, you can tell you have the blue eye white Jesus in you" no racial issues nah" that religion create a benign atmosphere that make you accept your fate as children of a lesser god, all white countries you travel their statue of their murdering ancestors is there. Like in BVI even the sea water is racist, to be called "sir Francis drake channel " I guess you the church minded don't think it's racist but god named it so. Only black people dismiss themselves from the future to remain where slavery left us kissing their butt and deify the white race by not even touching the wrongs of Caucasian,or else it's racist, who taught you that word and gave you guilty feelings, the white people are cold in conscience about keeping you in your place.
As usual the white man Bates won that round of wickhams cay fight, since as always during slavery when the lose human beings like us they consider it a lost of property, like we were a shovel a wheel barrow or wrench, so they were compensated according to the white supremacists doctrine , so who pay back that loan that paid Bates? Me and you. We should ask the British financiers who was exploiting that situation of noel Lloyd to gain riches to re emburst it to our treasury now with interest, just like some moomoo African leaders taking all it tax dollar to France treasury from since their independence in the 50's , we did the same and paid Bates for what our ancestors bled blood sweat and tears for. The land of ours, and trust me Columbus kill the Africans that was here before and gave them names like arawak and caribs because it must not be known that we were civilize before them in sailing the world when they thought it was flat.
( which is a blatant lie) didn't render any assistance or assurance to Mr. Lloyd. So people like you Sambo needs to stop spewing nonsense. Do research thoroughly before typing.
the member also had the opportunity to form a government and did nothing
