‘The thought never crossed my mind’ — Walwyn on running in D4
By Esther Durand, BVI News Staff
Chairman of the National Democratic Party (NDP) Myron Walwyn has dismissed speculations that he is throwing his proverbial hat in the ring for the upcoming by-election in the Fourth Electoral District.
Walwyn was not re-elected because he failed to secure sufficient votes as a Territorial At-Large candidate in the recently-concluded general elections.
But, following the sudden resignation of NDP legislator Mark Vanterpool, rumours began circulating that the NDP leader would attempt to carve his way back into public office by contesting the now-vacant Fourth District seat.
“This is ridiculous. I am saying no and the thought never crossed my mind,” Walwyn told BVI News on Thursday.
He also said the party’s executive members have not yet discussed who they will field for the by-election considering Vanterpool’s resignation ‘just happened the other day’.
“The party will make an announcement at the appropriate time,” Walwyn said.
PVIM also contesting by-election
Meanwhile, campaign manager for the Progressive Virgin islands Movement (PVIM) Dr Michael Turnbull said the party will have a candidate in the upcoming race.
“The PVIM is not a one-election movement. It is a movement that is here to stay and plans to be involved in the future of the country. And, as such, this is an opportunity where we can be involved and feel we can be a contributor to allow people to make a choice. So, we plan whenever it is announced to offer the people the opportunity to do so through a candidate,” he said.
When asked about Karl Scatliffe who was the PVIM’s Fourth District candidate at the 2019 General Elections, Dr Turnbull said he was unable to provide an answer.
He said the PVIM’s constitution outlines the requirements to select a candidate and ‘does not exclude anyone’.
He said the party is simply following the rules and ‘give everyone the opportunity’.
He further said the PVIM is set to meet soon and the matter of who will contest the by-election will be on its agenda.
Lessons learned
Dr Turnbull said the party has learnt vital lessons from the general election.
“We have all had debriefings … we have listened to some of the feedback from the people, and we plan to incorporate them as we continue to build our movement,” he said.
PU considering to run
Chairman of the Progressives United (PU) Julian Fraser who spoke to our news centre on Wednesday said the party may have a candidate in the by-election.
“We are still in the very early stages of discussing that matter, and it is something that we will consider,” he said.
Fraser said the PU is likely to have a clear indication as to the way forward by the weekend.
Dr Vincent Scatliffe was PU’s candidate for the Fourth District in the recent general election. He garnered 24 votes.
The VIP’s intentions
BVI News also sought out Virgin Islands Party Chairman, Premier Andrew Fahie whose only comment was: “Congress of the VIP will confirm shortly.”
Luce Hodge Smith who ran under the VIP banner secured 385 votes, representing the second highest number of votes garnered in District 4. The now-resigned Vanterpool brought home the win with 442 votes.
Governor Augustus Jaspert is yet to appoint a date for the by-election which, according to law, must be held within two months of a representative relinquishing the post.
Vanterpool announced his resignation on March 5.

Walwin go home we dont want you , cant you get that into your u**y ball head??
Speak for yourself. I wish he was there. I don’t know why some of you are soo scared of this man.
Because he is from the party that almost sold the big to Chinese. He didn’t take care of the schools. And that’s just the beginning.
This man knows he’s lying. He already start campaigning in the 4th District.
Grow up, and stop calling people names. Learn to express yourself without calling people out of their names. It’s childish.
BVINews should completely disallow these kinds of comments rather than edit them. It’s not right.
@Reply, why you think you are the blog police? You always getting in other people suddin. Mek ah ve lone. Express your opinion and respect others opinion. Sick ah yu now. It is freedom speech. Drop???. Adios.
How can you justify name calling? Thats childs play. Some of you get on this blog and call people out of their names. Its wrong, and I have no respect for people who does this.
Want respect? Earn it. Grow up!
@reply reply! You yourself sound so ratchet. You sound like one of those woman who always drink and play ah bunch of popcccan music. Your attitude is your biggest hold back in life.
Two quickies:
(1) Run Myron…..
@Think People offered the most thoughtful and correct political reason why you should. A strong opposition s definitely needed.
(2) The country needs strong intellectual assets to help guide it through. We should be combining our political and intellectual resources for the benefit of progress.
In the final analysis, it is not a party, but the strength of the intellect within each member, and the contribution of non members alike that will build solid foundations towards future progress.
Get back in the game and run brother! Many have seen your worth and contributory capabilities. And yes, the author is a so called full blooded native/local/ BVIslander/whatever.
The, a people, need all hands on deck to help guide the ship. Europe, UK, Japan, China or Australia will not guide our ship, but would sooner re-colonize it and us.
(3) Would like to see brother Skelton get in also.
Honestly MVW I think he is a power house really. He is aggressive in getting things accomplished. Look at how fast we got election results this year in comparison to the slow outdated drawn out process. I sure he assisted with this. Let’s talk about culture look how he brought it alive, local dress, local song local pledge, give the Mr.some credit. His downfall is he needed to be humble, he needed to listen to our people, he needed to admit that mistakes were made. He needed to apologize.
Now he needs to relax and do an honest self-assessment, and possibly return to politics in the future.
He has acknowkedged the mistakes from time the party hit the trail… He also acknowledged that the previous government did not do there best at communicating with the public…but despite this the territory continues to crucify him for the many misgivings.
I will be honest to say when he first entered politics I did not expect him to go far because of his demeanor.
That isn’t something that he can change easily… But what needs to be realized is that he has earned the right to be confident in himself and his accomplishments.
But in reflection, he is more humble than we think and is very willing to listen and take direction especially on things outside of his forte.
A leader is someone that listens but is able to decipher and make a stern decision when it is needed. Not every decision will be right but a leader is also grown enough to admit the wrongs and learn from them.
I can’t speak for the rest of the territory but I see many of these qualities in Hon. Walwyn and I hope he will return Better and Stronger for 2023.
You sound so stupid. Yah deff yah can’t read the man said he not contesting. Is V**o and you all who bring up the man’s name just to cause mess…so childish. H**l you don’t go home. Enough of this mess and foolishness. You all asked for the swamp to be drained the dam swamp drained and you still bitter and salty. Every minute calling up the man name or NDP. Makes me think you’ll really didn’t want the swamp drained.
Myron preserve yourself because election will call in 3 years, trust me on that! Don’t rush to run this time around. Send Henry.
”the people have spoken and the voice of the people is the voice of God.” Get over NDP and Chairman Hon. Walwyn’s loss. As Sister Joyce sang in her song, “the NDP Bulldozed our country”; and Myron was a part of them. Decisions made by the Cabinet are agreed to by all the ministers. Hon. Myron is a Lawyer and knows better. In this very week, Police commissioner Matthew in an interview reminded us that he has Myron’s File and that Myron is under investigation in relation to the wall around ESHS. Our country is broken. The UK has mandated that we setup a board (the RDA) to deal with the 300-million pounds they are prepared to back the loan for.
The governor just yesterday spoke of the huge challenge the new government has to deal with and a lot of it has to do with us not having any money
You should not believe everything you hear or see. There is money in the budget. The whole thing was a smoke screen to make NDP look bad to better someone else and the folks bought it.You all just watch,worse days are ahead than better days for the BVI. I am ONLY SPEAKING FOR MYSELF.I am not feeling this NEW GOVERNMENT.
Some of us are so disrespectful in this place it is incredible. We need to respect each other as human beings.
Stop, you are making yourself sick. You will quicker drink the oceans dry than see our people respecting, honouring and building up our own.
But don’t take these words lightly, let their queen come by here today. You will see the slave and Willie Lynch mentality in full bloom, flagellating itself all over, like puppies running to their mother’s breast..
I do agree with you.
U ain’t hear the man say he’s not running! I sure u are one who usevti beg him for money. U need go sid dung! And shut up!
Ok his government did not win but don’t hate him cause he is richer than your broke ass. If I was him I won’t care to serve people who don’t appreciate me serving. I would tend to my business and help out privately where I can.
It’s amazing how the who damm NDP made mistakes and hate is great for this MVW. This is not good
Where I am from,we call people like that Broke A** bum b***hes looking for a come up.
ET go home.
Was this necessary? Simply stupid, uncaring and childish; Breathing hate in the process. So irrelevant to this discussion.
Even if it did cross your mind, I don’t see anything wrong with it. This can be your second chance, in less than a month, at having a shot to get elected. Nothing like this has ever happened before around here, as far as I know. It could be the Lord making another way for you to get in, so don’t be shy or afraid to seize the moment. Go for it, whether you win or lose.
Here we go with the stupidity and name calling from the Talk to the Tola gossip mongers. So many of you people in Tortola mentality is at a all time low. I guess calling people names is what gives you the climax that you can’t or fail to experience through intercourse.
Even if you didnot consider it, go for it Myron.There is no law written in the books saying you can’t. These hate mongers is trying to through you off course with the name calling and hatred. Don’t allow them to do that to you. You do what you have to do.
You have me cracking up with laugh.But on a serious note, I have to agree with you. It seems like the only way people experience the feeling of a climax is when they call people all kind of disgusting names. They have never or fail to reach that point so they resort to hating so they can get to that point.
Fool go sit down that was plane by the NDP mark already no he was going to resign so y run to get in and then resign makes no since?♂️??
Your spelling and grammar is atrocious!
tell that to all b v islanders meh son
“This is ridiculous. I am saying no and the thought never crossed my mind,” Walwyn told BVI News on Thursday.
He also said the party’s executive members have not yet discussed who they will field for the by-election considering Vanterpool’s resignation ‘just happened the other day’.
“The party will make an announcement at the appropriate time,” Walwyn said. Though the thought may not have crossed the NDP Chairperson, and former MEC mind,it seems as if he has not
rule it out. If the executive members nominate him, would he run? The power, social status, influence….etc of elected office is addicting. It is hard to resist the gravitational pull; the withdrawal is challenging.
Moreover, the bye-election is due by May 06 yet all the parties are dragging their feet on which candidate they will field. The VIP choice should be clear. PVIM, PU and NDP choices may take a day longer. We must shed the habit of campaigning a day or two before election. let the campaigning begin in earnest.
PVIM will be foolish to put forward Karl again, because he wasn’t among the pick of the votes less than a month ago, and I doubt many people are going to change their minds about him. I feel MW can take on Luce and give her a good run for her money. Apart from that VIP has this one in the bag.
Who the heck is Karl again?
If he wants to run again that is his given rights. Seems like so many of you in this Country is suffering from low IQ/selfesteem issues that you have to resort to calling people names to feel better about yourselves. Are you guys adults or little bullies trying to control the sandbox at the playground? Like I stated, he have a right to run if he wants to. As far as I can see, you same loud mouths is going to cause Luce to lose. It dose not mean she is going to win because of the number of votes she generated at the last election. I have even heard some of the low IQ’ers saying they are going to add her votes from the last election with what she gets and she will win easy. That is not how the system works low IQ’ers.
Personally, I do NOT agree with the name calling. It is a bit immature, but all I would say is that it takes a low IQ’er to know a low IQ’er. Now let’s see: You called others “loud mouths”, “little bullies”, “low IQ’ers”. Hope you got an ease after your post.
Someone stuck a needle in your freshly injected botox and deflate the cheeks huh? People is intitled to there opinions. Can’t take the heat? Then don’t stand at the base of the volcano. If the words loud mouth, little bullies and low IQ’ers struck a nerve,that is not my problem. Deal with it.
Myron was one of the Best representatives we ever had in this country. We will learn. I attended the HL Stoutt celebrations and said to myself look at this. We crucify this man. We say he is an island man but we wearing territorial wear proudly. We singing territorial song proudly. We even now promoting the territorial pledge more than ever. We ever stop to think who made all this possible? I was shocked myself because I never stopped to think about it either.
I was also there and all I could do was say to myself, this poor Country needs some serious help. Look who the people of this Country have to Nawwww,I will keep it to myself and just look on. (SOS).
Talk the thing … cause some party supporters just go about talking and then the minute others try to defend themselves it becomes problematic. So if the public talks then the word spreads.
I appreciated your hard work Myron. I saw a lot of jealousy and envy around you. I also looked at how everyone attacked you before and during the campaign. Think about it. Nobody attacks weak people. Nobody attacks people who they do not see as a threat. As soon as Mark resign up comes a voice note going around saying that you are running in the fourth. That shows me you have strength beyond what you even might know. Find your inner strength more. Strategize wisely and come back stronger. When you do that you will be unstoppable. This is why they are trying to cut you down now but God is in control. The evil will not prosper for long. Those rejoicing will start to weep very soon. Watch it and you will see.
He just reaping what he sowed- divide and rule always creates more enemies than friends in the long run
My dear don’t sit up here and act like you are so innocent. In this world,each and everyone of us is going to reap what we have sowed we all have done things that we have to reap for be it good or bad.Cut some slack and stop being so hypocritical and so quick to throw shade. I bet your closet is full of filth that you have to reap for.
Believe me none of us has buyers remorse – after 8 years of NDP- nada done- the BVI worse than it was 20 years ago- Myron and Mark should be put in a zoo
Thank you for the comment. You are 100% correct. They knew Myron would have been a good Premier.
Yes Myron has ability but lacks the humility…which is a dangerous thing. He needs to learn humility.
Myron I thank you for all that you have done for this country and it’s people. The truth is some of us just ungrateful. I know all you did to help people and you were one politician who did your work all year round. We always saw results coming from you. We always saw you around in the neighborhoods touching bases with people. The people to me was just fed up of the same leadership and the poor leadership. When you all come back work on keeping people more informed. This 7.2 million scandal was unforgivable and what was worse no information was forthcoming from the government. Up to now we done even know the full story. The outstanding audited financia reports and all the confusion with the finances made people lose confidence in you guys. Think about the mistakes and re-group and come back.
can Ronnie throw his hat in the ring too
I AGREE WITH YOU 100% I KEEP ASKING MYSELF WHAT IT IS ABOUT MYRON THAT EVERYDAY PEOPLE HAVE TO BE COMMENTING ALL THESE STUPIDNESS HE IS NOT IN GOVERNMENT AND STILL THEY WOULD NOT LEAVE HIS NAME REST.AND THE THING OF IT IS THE PEOPLE COMMENTING IS NOT AS INTELLIGENT AS HIM.MYRON CAN GO ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD AND REPRESENT ANY COUNTRY BECAUSE HE IS INTELLIGENT.SOME OF YOU NEED TO TAKE UP A BOOK AND READ.
THEY FEAR HIM. He may not have gotten in but he carry more power than the rest of them.When some of them have to go overseas they better brush up on how to speak properly and articulate themselves. Honestly, most of the people in Political Office donot know how to speak or pronounce words properly.
They feared the hill man who used to be in Immigration.
Most of them cannot or know how to speak properly.It is not about the Caribbean accent,it is about knowing how to pronounce and speak the words properly.
Myron will be the best fir the opposition side. You guys need to really think and stop being so hateful and ignorant. He has done a lot regardless to the nasty talk that’s keep going around about him. The opposition needs someone powerful and Myron can get the job done. Myrin hild your head up and run in this by election. People in the District 4 pay close attention to the naysayers and bad talkers about Myron.
I wish I could like your comment 100 times. It make no sense to throw another VIP candidate in the ring. They will only be a back bencher.
The Government need a strong Opposition now more than ever to chart our way through these unchartered waters.
Now that they put the idea in your head, I say MYRON GO FOR IT. They thought it was over, but the Lord said not so fast. Nothing beats a trial but a failure.
I pray the people of the 4th will vote him in if he decides to run.
Honestly,that is true.For real people of D4,pay very close attention and you will see the naysayers is about the I don’t like him. If he decide to run, give him the chance. I bet he will get things done,it is all about getting things done regardless if you like him or not.
Myron Walwyn was and is one of the sharpest minds in BVI politics. A strong oppostion is needed now more than ever. The man should run for the good of the territory
He is. He would have been a good Premier.
No he would NOT! It takes more than ability to be a good leader. And anyone who divides to conquer is questionable as a good leader. Good leaders are about team and team building. Good leaders are humble and a people-concerned. Look at the Bible. God hardly chose people with ability to lead…He chose people with humility and a heart for His people. God is STILL in control of what goes on in the BVI. Let’s never forget that.
Myron, don’t mind these people. Most of them who encouraging you to run again in the 4th won’t or can’t vote for you. Just lay up in the cut and wait for the right opportunity to present itself. You will have another chance in due season.
MYRON HAS EDUCATION AND COMMON SENSE SOME OF YOU HAVE EDUCATION NO COMMON SENSE SOME OF YOU NEITHER HAVE EDUCATION OR COMMON SENSE.COMMON SENSE BEATS EDUCATION.
You meant to say “SOME OF US NEITHER HAVE EDUCATION OR COMMON SENSE”, because I reckon that is where you belong.
Vip looking so flimsy, that MYRON is a hope .
You all wanted Myron out, Now with the uncertainties that we going thru with a million deputy premiers , You want him BACK .After a while , you will miss him dearly .
Who fooled you…we aren’t uncertain and don’t want him…if he comes you will see
who is we. You cannot speak for the majority.
Stop feeding the trolls every time they comment. Some comments although you may not agree with what is being said is just a matter of different opinions but some with the name calling and obvious stupid commentary doesnt need a response or even dislike just ignore the fools and I’m sure after a while of seeing that they are getting no reaction they will stop or find another place to play. Some people are clearly trolling it makes no sense going back and forth with them because that’s exactly what they want and it isn’t like you will enlighten or shut them up by responding to them.
Go seeehdung u and your …
One of the biggest mistake Andrew did was allow each of his cabinet members a 3 month trial run as Second in Command. That is pitting them against each other. When the time comes to choose his Second in Command,that is when the S**t is going to hit the fan.If Myron was elected,he would have picked a Second in Command. Give it a few and the drama is going to start. Andrew, I truly hope you know what you are doing because a lot of people that supported you to punish and get rid of Myron is going to turn on you if you don’t fulfill each and every promise that you sold them. They are going to turn on you Andrew including some of your own Cabinet Members.
Myron had a second in command and all his Ministers set up before they hit the campaign trail… if they had formed the government the only change would have been was if a designated member didn’t make it.
The Premier doesn’t seem to like to make jard decisions but he better learn fast.
He is. He would have been a good Premier.
I have to conclude that there is a fear of Myron why people keep calling up his name and don’t want him to be in leadership position. He was a good leader. As a Virgin Islander, I’m prideful when I hear the Territorial song, when I wear the Territorial wear, and I have all the colours. Who got us to this point? Hon. Walwyn.
Myron would make a great premier. He would represent us well on the international scene. He would fight for us against the UK with all their proposals to equate our citizenship with that of the UK’s. Yes, we are different. Their ancestors gave licks and my ancestors took licks and we shall NEVER forgive them for it, never!
Those are the vexing things that we must face soon and I pray to God Andrew is prepared to deal with it, because it is the thing that would cause us Virgin Islanders to turn a different page in the history of these Virgin Islands.
Myron, wait if you must, but you shall be leading this country one day, and the word would say, “though it tarries, wait; wait, we say, on The Most High.”
Run Myron, run.
The man was given a public spanking after his foolish wall and his arrogance at believing he could divide V Islanders silently and rule- let him come back- this time VIP will whip his behind
VIP can’t even whip themselves in order.They won because of the promises they made to the desperate people.Even Andrew said he was shocked he won, he thought Myron was going to win. VIP need to get a full makeover from head to toe.The granny shoes and cheap looking suits have to go. I guess that is perfectly fine for you people to have your Government looking like there attire came from Good Will or the thrift shop.
So i voted for Mark now that he has disrespected us that voted for him when the bi election comes what should I do hmmm he said he wasn’t running now that he ran got in and then now retired this is a big slap in the face to me but this is my right I’m speaking for myself I’m not voting for any of them who ever they chose no thanks his Nephew not even Myron
We all thought that Dr. Smith would be a good Premier too. It takes a lot more than being educated and a nice person to lead a nation. Sometimes there are too many people that were not elected that is steering the ship or giving bad advice. Sometimes the parties prefer a team that will agree with anything instead of a team of strong individuals that can actually contribute with good ideas not just distributing district allowances.
Pajaro cannot run because he was already informed by the Governor not to run but he wanted to show governor that he is boss and then he got the REAL rude awakening of who is the REAL BOSS, THE PEOPLE OF THE VI.
They are all being investigated and he will not put his hat in the ring to prevent any more political caos.
You all think VIP is the answer and they are going to pave the streets with gold and honor every promise that was made. You poor people.I wish Andrew the best,better him than me, I know how you Tortola people work, you love to rejoice and laugh on people’s hurt and pain. Need I say more?
My father said to me the other day,when you keep lamenting on a person that means the person is important.
BROTHER SEEMS LIKE YOUR POPULARITY HAS GROWN T SINCE YOU LOST. KEEP THE DRUM BEATING BOSS. GOOD FREE PR. LOL. LETS CATCH UP FORNA DRINK SON.
There are no regrets from voters that voted for change especially right now as the government has been in power for a mere few days. Myron has always been popular even with this election. Although he didn’t win he was still a very close 5th option with over 2000 votes. These comments just reflect that, as NDP supporters are still upset over the loss and would love for their savior to get another chance at redemption. So please dont misconstrue these comments as an acknowledgement of regret of voters. The only regret is from those that voted for NDP and watched their votes go up in smoke. All of a sudden NDP supporters want a “strong opposition” where was this call 4 years ago when there were only 2 members of the opposition. In fact if they had their way Fraser would have been replaced by OJ. These salty fanboys and girls still trying to push their narrative almost 3 weeks after their defeat. Turn those frowns upside down and let us all just support the Government of these beautiful Virgin Islands and unite as one.
Now is not the time for Myron to run anyway!
We should all expect him to retry in 2023; before the thunderstorm, not after the rain!
Let’s have a greatest hits line up: Myrin, Ronnie, Luce, Gerry, Dancia and Kedric. Then make them fight each other for the place.
Myron’s popularity is soaring. He may not have won this time and he is in a very good position. Myron, as a suporter and will always be a surpoter, continue to do what you are doing privately and plan your comeback. Let the ones who is in office deal with the stress, problems and sleepless nights trying to figure out what and how they are going to get the Country back together. Mark my words, you are going to be the one that they will be calling soon to help clean up the mess. Why? because you have the knowledge. I am a NDP surporter yes, I was upset that NDP lost but, I look at it as every disappointment as a blessing in a good way. Let VIP deal with the problems and the lash back that is coming.
LOL, talking about they will call him because he have the knowledge lol. The man is a lawyer not a rocket scientist. Ayo put waaay too much faith in man.
@Cherry Blossom,for real, they wanted and thought they were going to punish Myron.But look now,they are the ones that is going to have all the stress. When it is all over,they are the ones that is going to be the sore losers.Myron is in the better position. They wanted to be in power positions and they are going to fail.People don’t be fooled, the BVI is going to take years to get back straight. Commander in Chief don’t have the guts to appoint a second in command with the nonsense about giving each member a 3 month run as second in command. That is a sign of weakness. LMAO. Remember now,it started wrong and it is going to end wrong.
Sometimes bad publicity is good publicity. Right now Myron popularity is at a all time high. As a outsider, the more they talk about him good or bad,the more you want to know about him. H*ll, he lost but he is more famous and popular than the ones who won.
Y’all ain’t going to like this but I’ll say it anyhow.The best thing to happen rite now is since Andrew can’t find a deputy out of his crew,Myron should run for district four,win and join VIP as deputy premier.Yes I said it.

Elections are over, could we just move on? How annoying is this shit now man. Half the people on here still harping cannot even vote in district 4. Whoever puts themselves forward, ok, we will assess and decide.
But to be here guessing and still chatting about MW – geesh! Rest that shit down nun mehn! Rass!
If they fail the country fail. I hope you already left, never to come back.
But Myron and you wanted the stress though
Did you not get the Memorandum, paragraph 1 stating when you make assumptions you always end up looking like a fool? Where am I going to leave to? I guess back to Virgin Gorda VIA Peebles Conoo-moomoo. You have a good day.
Its not about where you are from nor is it about any assumptions. Its about the FACT, that if this or ANY government fails, WE as a BVI fail and the consequence of that is WE, OUR children and future generations to come shit!. The immaturity of US, only seeing the ramifications of failure within the BVI only, is just that. Immaturity! Grow up and stop act your shoe size.
This born here or not from here thing matters not! Stop being an a$$! Oh – and before you start. I am a BORN, bred, indigenious BVIslander and on that note lets wish the BVI and any government well.
