Why Are Black Jamaicans Lying for a British-Born Man: Mark Golding, Who Wants to Be Our Prime Minister, While They Need Visas to Visit Britain?

WHY ARE BLACK JAMAICANS LYING FOR A BRITISH-BORN MAN WHO WANTS TO BE OUR PRIME MINISTER, WHEN THEY NEED VISAS TO VISIT BRITAIN

Jamaica stands at a crossroads, and the question before us is as clear as the blue Caribbean sky: Are we for Jamaica, or are we against Jamaica?

It is both perplexing and heartbreaking to watch some Black Jamaicans twist themselves into knots of lies, half-truths, and propaganda — all in service of a British-born man who aspires to lead a country to which he was not even born. A man whose lineage and loyalty belong elsewhere. A man who enjoys the privilege of British citizenship while the very Jamaicans defending him are treated as outsiders in Britain, needing a visa to visit the land that once enslaved their ancestors.

This is not simply a matter of politics — this is about pride, dignity, history, and justice.

A Bitter Irony: Fighting Against Ourselves

How did we reach a point where the descendants of enslaved Africans — the builders of Jamaica — have become cheerleaders for someone who symbolizes everything we fought to free ourselves from?

 For centuries, Britain imposed its will on this island, extracting its wealth and enslaving its people. We struggled. We fought. We bled and wept for our freedom, achieving independence so we could chart our destiny.

And yet here we are — some of us lying, scheming, and working overtime to elevate someone whose primary loyalty and identity are rooted in the very empire that oppressed us.

The bitter irony cannot be ignored:

 Black Jamaicans are lying on behalf of a man who can walk into Britain without a second thought. At the same time, they — citizens of an independent nation — must stand in line, fill out forms, and sometimes face rejection to visit "His Majesty's" realm.

What does that say about how little we value ourselves? What does that say about how much we've internalized the idea that we are inferior — that we still need a white man to govern us?

Jamaica Needs Leaders Who Are of Jamaica

We are not just talking about geography. We are talking about shared experience. Shared struggle. Shared identity.

 A leader of Jamaica must feel, in his bones, what it means to be Jamaican — to grow up in our streets, to survive on our food, to live through our storms, and to feel the weight of our history.

A leader of Jamaica must stand before the world, unapologetically Jamaican, and fight for us without conflicting allegiances.

 Someone who holds a British passport — a privilege rooted in colonial history — cannot fully and honestly champion the interests of Jamaicans without the specter of divided loyalty.

Are We For Jamaica, or Against Jamaica?

This is the question that must haunt us.

 Every lie told to elevate this British-born man over a son of the soil is a betrayal of our ancestors who endured the whip and chain to secure our freedom.

 Every fabricated accusation against those who work for the progress of Jamaica is a betrayal of our children, who deserve a future led by those who genuinely love and belong to this land.

 Every word of defense for someone who is not truly one of us is a betrayal of Jamaica herself.

We cannot allow our political differences or personal grievances to close our eyes to the larger truth: Jamaica must be led by Jamaicans, not just by passport, but by heart, by experience, by loyalty, and by blood.

A Call to Conscience

We, the people, must protect Jamaica from becoming a pawn of foreign interests or a playground for those who see it as just another piece of property to possess.

 We cannot afford to sell out our dignity for empty promises or the illusion of competence.

 We cannot allow ourselves to be used as pawns in a game we didn't design, defending someone who would never protect us if the roles were reversed.

It is time to remember who we are:

 The descendants of Nanny of the Maroons, Paul Bogle, and Sam Sharpe — people who defied colonial power and fought for sovereignty.

In the End, the Choice Is Simple:

We are either for Jamaica or against it.

 We are either loyal to the dreams of our ancestors, or we betray them.

 We are either building a future for Jamaicans, or we are handing it back to those who once shackled us.

History will not forget where you stood.

Choose wisely. Choose Jamaica.

Jamaicans: We Cannot Remain Neutral — Stand Up for Jamaica!

There comes a time in every nation's history when its people must choose between complacency and courage, between betrayal and loyalty, between darkness and light.

 That time is now.

As Jamaicans, we cannot, must not, and will not remain neutral. Neutrality at this stage is complicity. We are either for Jamaica or against it.

It is no longer simply about who holds office — it is about the very soul of the nation.

The Integrity Commission — Guardians or Hypocrites?

We have an agency in Jamaica — the Integrity Commission — which was established to safeguard our democracy by investigating corruption, rooting out wrongdoing, and ensuring that the powerful are held to account.

 At least, that's what they claim to be doing.

But in reality? Their actions — and even their inaction — speak volumes about the moral decay festering at the heart of our institutions.

Take, for example, the shocking incident where one of the Integrity Commissioners was shot at — a clear and present danger to his life. Yet, unbelievably, when the police, acting lawfully and professionally, approached him to take a statement to aid their investigation, he refused to cooperate.

Let that sink in:

 A man entrusted with the sacred duty of enforcing integrity in public life was the victim of a shooting — and yet refused to give law enforcement the statement they needed to catch those responsible.

What does that tell us about the credibility of the Integrity Commission?

 What does that say about who he might be protecting — or afraid of exposing?

This behavior is not merely irregular; it is damning. It raises serious questions about conflicts of interest, fear of reprisals, or worse — possible complicity.

 What kind of message does this send to ordinary Jamaicans when the very people who are supposed to model integrity show cowardice, hypocrisy, and contempt for the law?

The PNP — Not a Party, but a Criminal Organization

These events cannot be divorced from the broader political landscape. The People's National Party (PNP), which has for decades masqueraded as a political party, increasingly reveals itself as nothing more than a well-organized criminal organization with a political façade.

It is no coincidence that those who seek to tarnish the reputation of Andrew Holness — a true son of the soil — are often aligned with or influenced by the PNP and its associates.

The PNP — now infested with what many call the PNPLGBTQ+ Criminal Organization — has a long and bloody history of violence, political intimidation, corruption, and betrayal of the Jamaican people.

Instead of standing for progress, justice, and opportunity, they stand for personal gain at the nation's expense. Instead of fighting for people with low incomes, they exploit them. Instead of empowering Jamaicans, they conspire with criminals to keep us divided, afraid, and oppressed.

When a Commissioner of Integrity can be shot at and then refuse to assist the police in their investigation, it reflects a culture of silence and lawlessness that aligns perfectly with the PNP's long-standing behavior.

When Power Corrupts Absolutely

We cannot ignore that when power is unchecked, corruption doesn't just creep in — it infects everything.

 It poisons the air we breathe, contaminates the food we eat, and corrupts even our thoughts.

 When those entrusted with protecting integrity become protectors of corruption, then Jamaica itself is under siege.

It is no longer just about politics; it is about survival. About truth. About who we are as a people.

Choose Jamaica — Not Criminality!

To stay silent is to side with the oppressors. To remain neutral is to betray Jamaica.

We cannot, and must not, allow those who hate their own country, those who despise the progress we are making under Andrew Holness, those who lie and scheme to install a foreign-born puppet or to shield their misdeeds — to win.

We stand with Jamaica. We stand with truth. We stand with justice.

Let us demand an investigation of the Integrity Commission itself — because no one, no matter how highly placed, should be above accountability. And let us expose the PNP for what it is: not a legitimate political party, but a criminal organization hiding behind the mask of politics, ready to sell out the nation for personal and foreign gain.

In the name of our ancestors who fought against slavery, and in the name of the generations yet to come — we choose Jamaica.

No more lies.

 No more betrayal.

 No more neutrality.

We choose Jamaica — boldly, unapologetically, and forever.

Jamaicans, The Time for Neutrality Has Passed — Choose Jamaica!

At this critical juncture in our history, we as Jamaicans can no longer afford to sit on the fence. Neutrality is no longer an option — we are either for Jamaica or against it. We must consciously choose to stand with the land of our birth, the soil watered by the sweat, tears, and blood of our ancestors. To stand idle while forces seek to undermine the very foundation of our nation is nothing short of betrayal.

This fight is not just a political one; it is a moral one. It is spiritual. It is generational.

We currently have an agency in Jamaica — the Integrity Commission — that was created to protect the people from corruption. It was established to investigate wrongdoing, promote transparency, and hold those in power accountable. But today, we must ask the tricky question: Who is watching the watchmen?

When an agency entrusted to safeguard integrity begins to engage in behavior that seems politically motivated, dishonest, and even malicious, then it is no longer the guardian of truth — it becomes part of the problem. Based on their actions, omissions, and apparent bias, they should be investigated for corruption, arrested, and charged accordingly.

Why? Because when black Jamaicans, the descendants of enslaved Africans, allow themselves to become tools of destruction against one of their own — a son of the soil, Prime Minister Andrew Holness — and instead fight to tarnish his name while protecting others with questionable allegiances, then we know we are living in dangerous times.

The very concept of integrity becomes hollow when those entrusted to enforce it lack it themselves. Lies, wickedness, and shamelessness have marked the behavior of some at the Integrity Commission. Instead of serving the Jamaican people, they seem intent on destroying the reputation of a leader who carries the hopes of millions and who has committed himself to steering the country away from crime, stagnation, and hopelessness.

History teaches us that power corrupts — and absolute power corrupts absolutely. But what happens when corruption seeps so deep that it contaminates the air we breathe, the food we eat, the thoughts we think? What happens when our institutions are no longer reflections of justice but instruments of oppression? That is when nations fall — not from enemies without, but from traitors within.

We must never forget: Jamaica is bigger than any one party, any one office, or any one individual.  But in defending Jamaica, we must also defend those who fight to uphold her dignity and protect her future. Andrew Holness — a son of the soil — represents more than just a man; he represents the struggle of every Jamaican who dreams of better days.

It is time to expose and hold accountable those who misuse their positions to sow division and distrust. It is time to insist on proper accountability — even from those who claim to enforce it.

To remain silent is to condone. To remain neutral is to betray.

Choose Jamaica. Defend Jamaica. Protect Jamaica.

We are not fighting merely for a leader — we are fighting for the very soul of our nation, for the future of our children, and for the honor of our ancestors who endured the whip and the chain so that we might stand free today.

We are Jamaicans — and we choose Jamaica.
