Willock eyes At-Large candidacy for VIP
Businessman Julian Willock is seeking approval from the Virgin Islands Party (VIP) to run as a VIP At-Large candidate in the upcoming general election.
Willock recently released a video more than six minutes long stating the reasons he should be considered.
He listed him being a VIP ‘supporter’ for more than two decades among those reasons.
“Like many others, I have options and invitations to join other groups but I strongly believe in the values of the VIP — putting people first, love for country and rejecting a class system.”
“I will be going before the VIP Congress to seek their nomination and confirmation to be one of four At-Large candidates on their slate in the next general elections; constitutionally due by June 2019,” he said.
I’ve got what it takes
Willock said he believes he possesses the ‘necessary’ skills and talents to seek higher office.
He said he is ‘confident’ of victory because he “can represent the country locally, regionally, or internationally; having been a former Permanent Secretary and the Director of the Water and Sewerage Department.”
He described his tenure in the public service as well as his status as a businessman as important attributes to help support the VIP’s “new, dynamic leader the Honourable Andrew Fahie”.
He further said he brings to the proverbial table new ideas and solutions to make life better for residents of the British Virgin Islands.
He concluded by pointing to his ‘love for the territory’ and his aim is to ‘give a voice to the voiceless’.
Just this week, six persons were announced as VIP candidates in the impending election.
VIP Chairman Andrew Fahie said the process to select the remaining three district candidates and the four territorial At-Large candidates will begin right away.

The VIP will reject him
Fahie needs Julian for campaign media coverage. So he is a shoe-in. Watch and see.
Fahie needs a new brain if he believes the nonsense you just typed.
He is over on his site censoring all the negative blogs against the VIP new candidates but wait until he is rejected, He will drop blows on the VIP left right and center.
Ayo need to drop some blows on he while ayo got the chance….lol

Sorry buddy Willock is one of we, and has not steal any money or did any conflict of interest and under investigation like others
Willock got it locked, he has my vote!
Trying everything to be like Myron..First it was law school now this (politics atlarge)
No no no no mad confusion.
The leader of the VIP made it abundantly clear that he will only accept him if he is willing to run against frazer. He says that where ever he goes.
Them also saying that he will carry news to fraser.
True. He just like a long grass. He will carry the Party’s news to Frazer. Willock and Frazer is one. Them nable string mussa cut with the same scissors.
Don’t mind the noise Willock because we in the 3rd got your back.
VIP don’t want no j— bird on thier ticket boss. As a p——– ———-, how can you even think of circumventing the laws of the BVI by employing j———- without getting work permits? Y– and C—- bring too much baggage to the ticket. The stakes are too high right now!
I thought the virgin islands party said that they were bringing a clean slate?
Does love for the BVI include avoiding work permit regulations for people employed by you?
Isn’t it illegal to run for public office once you was incarcerated?
His mother and father from Tortola so jail can’t disqualify him. Tek dat
So that makes him a full breed tolian as-. Now what?
YOU SURE BOTH WILLOCK PARENTS FROM HERE…I DOUBT THAT VERY MUCH…WILLOCK WHERE YOU FADDA FROM??
Running for office or running for cover? This chap c——- get the water department to run water 24/7 where the VIP going wid he buddy?
M—- citizen….Fail/ inc——
Attempetd lawyer…Fail
Perm Secretary…Fail
Lopsided Journalism….Pass
I don’t think Jullian wants to run to better the country. He running to be like Myron.
Is Willock an indigenous name to the BVI ???? Don’t tell me that if he gets in there will be more illegibility questions asked ???
I would choose Claude over Jullian. Then again that’s a close race mehson.
The NDP bloggers out in full force today trying their best to destroy the esteemed one. Lord youthz for wallwind alyo please give the man a break.
I am begging one and all to give him a taste of his own medicine because — is always on his tabloid blogging against every one else
He is probably so upset because he cannot control the blogs over here like he does on the yellow site. Poor thing isn’t going anywhere, but the end of this year he will be bashing the VIP non-stop because they will reject him.
Dude, don’t give the national and international community that anything can happen in the BVI…Are you insensitive, crazy or have you gone over your egoism.
My boy VIP don’t have the characteristics you are portraying so just be a voter and not a vote-ee. Your Punk head a-zz
Ha ha willock will win bottom line
No man name Willock is from Tortola. Partner go wheel and come again. He is a Virgin Islander because of his mother and grandmother. What father name Willock from Tola, Parrner?
How else you expect the esteemed one to win but “bottom-line.” Politics dutty. He better be prepared for the onslaught of negative publicity when he put himself out there as candidate for office. Tola people frigg up on them mouth when they don’t like yoh.
Ha ha the same person blogging willock is an easy win trust me
just like you who is always blogging on the yellow site under different names
Keep off Willock..He is the only one who by the —- c— every night.
Gentleman’s club that is.
I feel sorry for Willock. It’s a very sad case.
This would be the worst move ever by VIP – Way too many alleged incidents of cor———–n – none of his tenures in govt positions ended well and now is the time the BVI needs as much honesty as possible- and JW just does not have that in him
These blogs seems so fake against Mr Willock. You all afraid of him already.
But it’s ok jw we the votes got you.
The esteemed is not as popular in the streets as you think. A rude awakening awaits. I personally want him to be chosen as an at large candidate to witness the flogging at the polls.
For the record ,his father is not from Tortola.Be that as it may,I cannot trust myself to vote for him.I do not trust him.
Did Mr. Willock list among his glowing accomplishments getting fired form his Civil Service position as a Permanent Secretary?
Did he forget violating the laws of the BVI by bringing in undocumented workers from outside the territory, to run his on-line “yellow journalism” news website? The undisclosed ownership of said news website being the reason he was dismissed as Permanent Secretary…
I think not.
C—– minds want to know!
