Spends more time off the island & wasting money for what?
perfect opportunity become Premier and travel the world
He has a great mentor who travelled the world to such exotic places as China, India, Dubai & came back with all kinds of promises but in actual fact delivered nothing but talk.
OBA is dead and gone and won’t ever be back as they self implode. Get over yourselves supporters. You lost fair and square. 24-12.
PLP are not bothered by your foolishness.
