UWP leader, Lennox Linton file photo
Following a vote to effectively limit all opposition members responses to the PM’s budget speech to just 30 minutes including the opposition leader (all government ministers would be allowed 1 hour). All opposition members were forcibly booted out of the house when they stood to protest what they saw as a grave injustice to the process of our democratic system. As a result the leader of the opposition ,Lennox Linton, and the rest of the opposition members were unable to deliver their budget responses in parliament.
In the interest of airing all sides of the debate DNO will be relaying Lennox Linton’s response via their “Worker’s Voice” programme from the Q95FM Facebook Page.

Clarifying statement of Lennox Linton
Lennox Linton - Thursday, July 15th, 2021 at 7:24 PM
On September 3
rd 2019 edition of the Hotseat on Q95, I stated that elements of the funding arrangements for the Cabrits Resort and Spa, Kempinski Dominica under Dominica’s Citizenship by Investment Program provide the outline of an elaborate scheme to cheat and steal.
My comment was about the public interest in leveraging Dominican sovereignty and our citizenship passports, It was based on sworn statements in a US court by a Dominica Ambassador at the United Nations that two officials of Range, the developers of the Cabrits Resort and Spa, received distributions from the project each in the amount of 30 million US dollars – 81.5 million dollars EC each – a total of 163 million dollars, which I believe to be well over and above what was required to build the hotel.
