“Unprecedented Nastiness” – NDP 1 cant take campaign heat
“Unprecedented Nastiness” is how the embattled NDP 1 Minister for Education and Culture describe the tactics of his opponents who employ the use of memes and WhatsApp messages to plant seeds of doubt.
Seeds of Doubt
“Oh mischief thou are swift to enter the thoughts of desperate men,” he said, noting that the NDP team has seen the actions of desperate persons over the past few weeks.
“Using memes on WhatsApp and other divisive tools to plant seeds of doubts and fear in the minds of you the good voters of the Virgin Islands,” he told those gathered at the Purcell Estate campaign launch of Hon Alvera Maduro-Caines on Thursday, February 8, 2019.
“Many of them live in glass houses but seems to be obsessed with throwing stones. The downright unprecedented nastiness coming from our opponents is out [of] step with the tradition of BVI politics,” Mr Walwyn uttered.
He said that it is also out of step with the character and values of the VI voters, “Values that emphasize civility and mutual respect.”
We Are a Small Community – Walwyn
“Never mind our disagreements or how we may feel about each other, at the end of the day we are a small community related to each other in countless instances and after this election, we all still have to live here and co-operate with each other,” he said.
‘Let me make it clear I am still in the race, I cannot recall seeing Mark Vanterpool crying and as the Chairman of the NDP, I will lead this party into election victory on February 25,” he said emphatically while indirectly referencing a post circulating on social media saying that he Walwyn has withdrawn from the 2019 political race.
“I know that our opponents are scared, I know that they believe that the key to election victory is to get me and Mark Vanterpool out of the way, I know that. But I urge you the people to send a strong message to them on Election Day that the people of the Virgin Islands do not appreciate their reckless, callous and disrespectful behaviour,” Mr Walwyn warned.
Critics and Political pundits have long accused the NDP 1 Party of division, disrespect, dishonesty plus lacking accountability and transparency over its 8-year rule over the VI. “We (NDP 1) will not go home until the people of the BVI says it’s time for us to go home,” Mr Walwyn affirmed.

2. Is it really country above self?
We all have been in some sort of a relationship before. We also know that newly formed relationships usually for the better part works almost perfectly until a big toe is stepped on then all hell break lose. The word “forgiveness” and the phrase “lets work it out” are regrettably neglected. I believe this is what has unfortunately happened not only within the NDP Govt. Time won’t permit me to explain in full details like I would want to but hopefully one day we can “chat”. Persons who seek to be elected or re-elected for that matter MUST put country above self in ALL aspect of governing the Territory and indeed work BETTER TOGETHER because we are definitely BETTER and STRONGER TOGETHER! This is the only way to move our Territory FORWARD!
