Dr Pickering should ‘fall back’ in re-election quest — Cindy Rosan
Social commentator Cindy Rosan has suggested that former legislator Dr Kedrick Pickering should end his campaign for a return to elected office at the upcoming general elections.
Rosan has been a staunch critic of the former legislator’s efforts ever since his September announcement about the need for a ‘reset’ to his political campaign.
She previously accused Dr. Pickering of selling out the birthright of residents in the Seventh District after gaining their trust and insisted that he must “atone for the damage done to this territory”.
And while making it clear that it was her unapologetic and personal opinion on Dr Pickering’s renewed political ambitions, Rosan also insisted that she would oppose anyone who aligned politically with the former legislator.
“The future of the BVI is grim because of leaders such as Dr Pickering. You’ve failed this territory, Dr Pickering. On a very serious level. Fall back. I encourage you to,” Rosan asserted.
The outspoken commentator suggested that the former Deputy Premier should perhaps seek an advisory post instead; once the next government forms. But she argued that he should never again be seated in the House of Assembly as a legislator.
Rosan also denied disliking Dr Pickering and argued that the territory should do some introspection in order for it to progress. “For this Territory to move forward, we must face our demons (failures), and this past rep of some 20-plus years, is a part of that look in the mirror,” she stated.
She also urged the former legislator to allow residents to move on from his era, adding that the people of the BVI are a very forgiving people.

Why she doesn’t do as she wish for Pickering? She maybe out spoken but her demeanor and character is unbecoming of representing women in any Public Domain much less the House of Assembly.
They both need to fall in love
I see the verbal behavior of female politician and ask myself if that’s the people we want to represent us in government. The behavior of this female politician is tactless. and the person she was dealing with just replying to her, maam, yes maam ok maam. I’m sorry but this is not how the people representative should behave especially in a public place. This person supposed to showcase the BVI. it had visitor in the establishment doing business just like her.
It already have female like her in the house of assembly.
Dr. PICKERING, has not shown me anything for the 20 years he served. I am sorry. And if anyone is honest they would admit it. Nothing under him blossomed. Nothing! He was more caught up with feeling important among his rich, white friends. Now he realizes that these people were not his friends he wants to make it back in government to rub shoulders with them again. This man cares about nobody but himself. He just wants power and attention. Dr. Pickering has nothing to offer us at this time. I am sorry.
even after the hurricane he didn’t do much for his district. It was Hon. Penn who was looking out for both district.
A little self serving there?
oh please no!! their offspring will doom us all
Simple: 20 years in the HoA with little accomplishment, an air thin resume. Is not he a gross under performer who enjoys the grift of being in office. What will he do differently? He had 20 years to learn the sausage making of legislative policy making but nothing. The guy finish med school so I wall say that he is slow so perhaps politics is not his thing and time to fall back.
Well said sister Rosan.
@SMH so only men are allowed to be outspoken? This shows your own misogynystic thinking.
She stood up when you sat idle letting Andrew run this country underground.
Cindy don’t mind them, run if you feel like you want to run. I will vote for you and reward you for standing up.
Just don’t go crazy if you are unsuccessful because the BVI don’t know the hell they want.
