Thank You…

To my fellow PUP's and the thousands of Belizeans who joined us in Dangriga,

I write this letter to say thank you for giving me your endorsement and choosing me to represent you as the new PUP Party Chairman.

As a staunch PUP, my heart was bursting with pride to see the overwhelming support at our National Convention on Sunday.  At a time when being a PUP means being victimized and discriminated against by a corrupt UDP Government, it is reassuring to know that our Party and our Party supporters will no longer be kept down, will no longer be

JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED

Judge not, that ye be not judged.  For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

Matthew 7, 1-2 :  The Holy Bible (King James Version)

The news of the resignation of President of the Court of Appeal, Mr. Justice Elliot Mottley, blew through the legal community like a cheap plastic kite on a breezy March morning in the Jewel – fast and erratically.  To the cognoscenti, such an act of judicial seppuku was not unexpected.  Honor was at stake, and the President is the most honorable of those on the Bench in Belize.

It did mean however that both in the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal, the top spots must now be filled – in an unusual legal synchronicity.  Once again there was a peerless jurist on whom a power-drunk Executive had set its merciless gaze.  For the third time this year, a judge's position was targeted.  Happy Independence, indeed.

The Attorney General (for whom the Constitution was amended and who was supposed to be above the hurly burly of politics) was dispatched to see the President.  The message was that after the slash and burn constitutional "regularization" of the once lifetime appointment had been concluded, His Lordship's services would not be required any longer.  His Lordship's appointment would not be renewed.

Today, at the Special Sitting of the Court of Appeal to mark the departure of the President, his Lordship in an economical summation, devoid of emotion, stated flatly that he had been informed by CJ Conteh that the Government had unilaterally altered the terms and conditions of his appointment.  His Lordship made it clear that this was done without his knowledge or consent.  Mr. Justice Mottley said that once he became aware of this, he determined then to resign his office. What else was an honorable man to do?

In stark contrast, the Government of Belize drank too deeply of its own dishonorable propaganda and belched forth an attempted spin,

A Portable Magic Storage Facility…

By: Mike Rudon Jr.

A couple months ago Mr. Barrow stood in front of his supporters at a UDP Convention and hollered about some magic which he claimed was still here, or there…or somewhere! Who knows? Well on Sunday thousands of Belizeans from every corner of this great nation assembled in Dangriga to tell the Prime Minister just what he could do with his particular magic and where he could store it for safekeeping. I don't know where the Prime Minister was, though I've been told that he and his darling wife are in Mexico again, but wherever he was and whatever he was doing…he got the message. There's no mistaking that message, buddy.

The thing is, the Convention wasn't even a PUP-organized thing, so to speak. Things didn't fall into place because of the twin marvels of money and machinery. It's no big secret that the Party doesn't have money to throw around…we're in Opposition, Jack. So Sunday wasn't a PUP thing, it was a PEOPLE thing. It was about common Belizeans just like me and you standing up and saying – ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! It was about

We’re Still Waiting!

By: Mike Rudon Jr.

As I sit and write this, our esteemed leader is once again out of the country, in Washington this time I think. He travels quite a lot, doesn't he? Off to New Orleans one week, Miami the next, Los Angeles for a few days with a brief stop in Houston…and the list goes on and on and on. We don't hear much about most of those trips and if it weren't for this little thing called the Internet, we wouldn't even have the benefit of seeing pictures of our wonderful Prime Minister and glorious First Lady Second Wife garbed in the latest designer apparel, sipping champagne and snacking on caviar on toast points. Cocktail circuits and gourmet dining are fine things aren't they? Our much beloved leader and his lady look like a million bucks…they're travelling the globe like celebrities with carte blanche status and we do so love those adoring little tidbits in the society pages of foreign newspapers. But we should be getting more from this, shouldn't we?

THE ROAD TO PERDITION

If you drop a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will of course frantically try to clamber out. But if you place it gently in a pot of tepid water and turn the heat on low, it will float there quite placidly. As the water gradually heats up, the frog will sink into a tranquil stupor, exactly like one of us in a hot bath, and before long, with a smile on its face, it will unresistingly allow itself to be boiled to death.  The Story of B Daniel Quinn

It is an anecdote that has achieved the status of urban legend, but in fact, scientific research done in the 19th Century proved that as long as the heating is gradual enough, the premise is true. The frog will submit to being boiled.

What relevance, you ask, does this have to me?? What relevance to the Jewel? The boiling frog anecdote is a parable which teaches that people should become aware of gradual

It’s All About Trust!

Man that dratted Bar Association, getting on Mr. Barrow's nerves again. Imagine all those learned attorneys ganging up on that poor, sweet gentleman who is obviously only trying to do the best he can to ensure that justice is properly handed down. Imagine all those learned attorneys from both sides of the political divide launching a constitutional challenge of our gentle leader's policy of giving Justices of Appeal limited contracts renewable on his whim. How dare they? How dare they insinuate by their actions that Mr. Barrow would ever, ever try to exert undue influence on the Judiciary? No, not our sainted leader whose integrity is sacrosanct and whose word is his bond (chuckle, chuckle)! Those bad, bad people in the Bar Association, trying to make our beloved big cheese look bad when all it would have taken is a congenial sit-down and he would have explained the whole thing. Jeez, heaven knows Mr. Barrow has always welcomed input from the Bar Association, going out of his way to encourage dialogue between that body and his Executive in every decision that affects the justice system. Heaven knows that our humble leader
