Performance Matters! New Asphalt Plant for St. James
Mark Brantley, Vance Amory and the CCM aren't attacking the NRP's performance in government. They know that if you vote based on what we've done, they'll lose. They know if you compare our accomplishments with their failures, they will lose.
They're trying to make this election about anything but what matters to people's lives. But, we know, that when people go to mark their X on Progress Day, the people will compare our records and vote for the government that has delivered for the people.
Eyes don't lie. Performance matters and it's why we casting our X next to the bottle on Progress Day, Monday, July 11th!
Nevisian Premier Welcomes New Asphalt Plant to St. James Parish
(CHARLESTOWN, NEVIS--WEDNESDAY, JUNE 29TH, 2011) Premier and Leader of the Nevis Reformation Party (NRP), the Hon. Joseph Parry has underscored the value of planning as a way forward for the people of Nevis, while addressing an attentive audience at the commissioning of the new asphalt plant at New River in St. James Parish on Friday.
“First of all the plan was to be people-focused, to make people’s lives better, so those who didn’t have homes would now have homes. Those who didn’t have an education have now received an education, and many can see the purpose of the water programs, agriculture, roads and development in tourism,” the Premier said.
He further asserted that if a country does not have proper infrastructure like roads and water, that country cannot have further development.
The Premier said that his NRP-led Administration is in the business of transforming the country and thanked all those involved in securing the asphalt plant.
“This government has a plan because we know what we are doing and this asphalt plant will save the island of Nevis hundreds of thousands of dollars.”
The Hon. Joseph Parry stated that his NRP-led administration is in the business of transforming the country, because the government is progressive. “The transformation of Nevis has begun under the NRP, and it will continue until the day comes, when Nevis will be the glorious paradise of the Caribbean,” said Premier Parry.
Meanwhile, Attorney General of St. Kitts –Nevis, and NRP candidate for St. James in the July 11 local elections, the Hon. Patrice Nisbett, told the audience that since 2006 he had ensured that the roads in St. James Parish receive due repairs, because the NRP believes that it was fit that the people of St. James receive quality roads.
“I want to ensure that the people of St. James’ demand and deserve the best quality of roads to lead them in and out of their homes,” the Hon. Patrice Nisbett said.
The Nevis Island Administration recently purchased the new state-of -the -art asphalt plant to better address the growing infrastructural needs of the island.
CCM Loses Another High Court Objection Appeal
Charlestown, Nevis (June 29, 2011) -- Her Ladyship the Hon. Justice Jennifer Remy on Tuesday, refused CCM's request to remove three Nevisians from the voters' list. CCM appealed to Justice Remy following a decision by Registration Officer Melford Ward to keep Joan Robinson, Arthur Broadbelt, and Ellen Washington on the voters list.
This brings the number of court defeats for the CCM to 5, a 100% loss rate in terms of Objection Appeals to the High Court. Following numerous judgments by Justice Albert Redhead, the CCM attacked Justice Redhead on their political platform and accused him of colluding with the ruling NRP to defraud the electoral system. Justice Redhead has called for Contempt of Court proceedings to be brought against the CCM candidate who made the allegations and has also recused himself from hearing further Objections Appeals.
Critics now await to see if CCM's reaction to the recent court decision will include further attacks on the administration of justice.
CCM's false claim that Opposition Leader Hon. Vance Amory's name has been removed from the voters' list has also been dismissed. Rumors circulated widespread after the Press had zoomed in on his voter registration record, which shows Amory registered in a place called "Central" but he really lives, and has been living in St. John for more than 15 years. Similar scenarios of Opposition CCM Officials have left an embarrassing situation for the CCM including the Chairman of the Party.
