His Royal Unworthiness

Roosevelt Skerrit, Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Dominica, does not often respond to attacks from his political opponents and detractors, but when he does, he cuts deep within their entrails; the most recent being his utterances on the suitability of Hon. Lennox Linton, Leader of the Opposition and political leader of the United Workers Party (UWP), the official Opposition, for the position of Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of Dominica. 
In his view, Hon. Linton is not fit to be the Prime Minister of Dominica because he is too lazy, he lacks prerequisite educational qualifications, he does not have the right temperament because he is too aggressive and belligerent, and he “does not care about people.” 
Intuitively, supporters of Hon. Linton are livid and have launched a campaign to polish the image of their leader.
