LONDON, England, UK- Governor Daniel Pruce will undergo surgery on his shoulder while in the United Kingdom (UK).

In a message on the Governor’s Facebook page on June 30, 2025, he shared that he is in the UK and will first attend the annual conference of Governors, Ambassadors and High Commissioners. 

This conference will “feature important discussions with Ministers and colleagues on a wide range of current issues”. 

Shoulder surgery

Following his attendance at the conference, Governor Pruce will have surgery on his left shoulder. 

The surgery he explained in the post is to “fix the defect that led to it dislocating for a second time last year”. 

Governor Pruce dislocated his shoulder in April 2024, and described it then as “the legacy of an injury from many years ago”. He was treated at the Dr D Orlando Smith Hospital and praised the team there that treated him. 

Governor Pruce is expected to be away from the Territory until August 2, 2025. In his absence, Deputy Governor Mr David D. Archer Jr. is acting in the office of the Governor. The Governor added that he is looking forward to returning to the VI once he has “recovered sufficiently from the operation”.

      You can go to the UK for medical treatment if you want to wait 5 years for an appointment, the NHS is gone, failed and its all because MILLIONs of illegals have flooded the nation.

        When Great Britain colonized African countries, India, parts of the Middle East and the majority of the Caribbean you didn’t think that was illegal. The “illegals” only coming to reap what was stolen from their ancestors

          Its not the Brits fault these countries were tooooo weak to protect themselves. Every country has been colonized by someone. If not for the Empire these countries would not have sewer systems, proper road, still haven't here, medicine, hospitals, schools, irrigation, farming. the list goes on and on. Most of the illegal aliens going to the UK, USA, Europe dont contribute .

      medical care in the UK?

    Will DA be allowed to respond to The Leader of His Majesty's Loya Opposition in regards to the investigation into the Bank of Asia? Or do we plan to ignore this until after Festival and then find some other smoke and mirrors to avoid the issue.
