Persons ‘getting low & nasty’ with campaign ads– Premier
“I've noticed a disturbing trend in the campaign, I believe very much it is a sign of desperation. [It] means we're getting closer to victory. The green team is getting stronger. It's getting more powerful and the enemy is scared.”
Dr Wheatley was at the time speaking at the Fourth District launch of Mrs Luce D. Hodge-Smith at the Market Square in Road Town, Tortola on March 31, 2023.
“They're resorting to the tactics, they getting low and they're getting nasty. They're putting out these little ads that say I wonder if the premier is high?”
Intoxicated with love for VI - Premier
According to the Premier, he only remains intoxicated with love for the Virgin Islands.
“I'm high on the potential and possibility of this place we call home. They're wondering, is he of unsound mind? Oh boy, be clutching for straws. Not only is he of sound mind, but he has intellectual dexterity.”
He called on Virgin Islanders to stay focused and not get distracted by negativity and ugliness being said on the stage.
“They live in a glass house, but yet they're throwing stones. Don't even get into the glass house or one of them … but yet somebody has the gall to speak about where I might end up.”
Dr said he will not wish bad on anyone in the 2023 campaign trail, “So when you dig a grave for me, dig two, because you might be end-up right in there."

Not a VIP getting my vote if I see that still there tomorrow.
It is obvious that none of the mudslingers have any vision or strategic direction for our territory and therefore the ground trampling.
All the red herrings in the fish pot appear clueless as they are only there to throw off the fish flavour.
With the current state that the territory is in, none of us have time for hissyfits, from elephants in the room, who behave like children on the playground. Go jump on a swing or play on a slide until you can figure out what you are really doing with yourselves.
Many schools of thought warns that we unable to lead, if we are not able to manage self. Take heed and please adjust accordingly. We dun talk and you will all soon understand.
Playing the tape is a bother now well campaign like a leader and you will get respect. Not those clown moves you does be on dehman.
"High" falsely relates to the pleasure that prescription pills and opioid narcotics give.
Being high originally meant a human being thinking beyond the normal range of consciousness, which among other thing is were novel creativity is sourced.
If the artists, engineers, musicians aren't going beyond our normal thought process into new realms of creativity then they're doing us a disservice by mucking around in someone else's old ideas rather than inspiring us, such stagnation will work to keep us entangled in the box fighting each other.
Depending on what people are high on, and when they choose to soar & return, being high occasionally could be a healthy improvement from the norm.
