WEh Dem Deh. REJECTS REJECTS
KFC a Party of REJECTS and OPPORTUNISTS.
FACTS BABY FACTS
Opposition leader and PNCR leader Robert Corbin, speaking with Guyana Times during an
interview on Dr Van West Charles’ decision to join the AFC, stated that party always saw him as an “opportunist”. Corbin said that Van West Charles was “never with the PNCR”.
Questioned what he meant by this, he explained that the doctor was always with
“Van West Charles and his personal ambitions”.
“He capitalised on marrying Burnham’s daughter and got through with a scholarship to do medicine; came back to Guyana and got a minister of health position without any political work in the fields. In fact, he was given a name – Baby Jesus meaning that he had arrived without any work and was blessed because he was Burnham’s son-in-law,” Corbin said.
He added that Charles believed that “the mystique of having married Burnham’s daughter
...would automatically qualify him for the leadership of the PNCR, but had a rude awakening when the PNCR rejected him because he was an opportunist”.
“The PNCR will lose nothing from his going. The members of the PNCR will now be vindicated in their decision to reject him,” a confident Corbin advised.
“He was a member and chairman of the Meadowbrook arm of the PNCR and was deceiving
the members of the public. I wouldn't waste any more time. He has never held any position in the PNC. He never won any elected office and never mobilised anyone in the name of the party," Corbin

We are wondering here in Berbice if Bloody joe Hamilton will take over the leadership of the PPP and whether he will kick out Sam Hinds and become prime minister since the PPP and House of Israel have now merged.

I don't think that the Hughes were political. They were very wealthy lawyers. I use to drive by their home which was by the Russian embassy by the sea wall (Peter D'Aguiar former house) in the early 1970s'. The Hughes house was massive and beautiful with a large lawn. Nigel Hughes grew up in wealth and comfort by belonging to a family who were clearly upper class.

Nigel just lost all the little reputition he had if he had any..by teaming up with a set of rejected scums alone shows what a low life he is
