Speaking on the My BVI radio show live-streamed on Facebook on March 16, 2023, Bishop Cline described the situation as a “sad commentary” as they would rather sacrifice the country for the sake of their party.

“Let me say that again, that there are supporters, there are even politicians on the scene today that would sacrifice the country for the sake of their party.”

‘They are loyal to their pocketbooks’- Bishop Cline

Bishop Cline, who said he was not affiliated to any party for this elections, suggested the disloyalty by some constituents and politicians is because of love for money.

“They are loyal only to their pocketbooks. They are not loyal to country, they are loyal to party, they are loyal to their pocketbooks.

“When it comes to what is good for this country, I believe that it is somewhere on the list but it is not one of their top priorities. It Is what I can get out of the country and not what I can do for my country,” Bishop Cline opined.

He urged the electorate to watch out for those individuals during this election season.

“And that is a sad commentary and I hope that the voting population listens very closely, see the behaviour of politicians and their supporters today and you are wise enough to weed out those you know will put us in a bad way,” Bishop Cline stated.

General Elections in the Virgin Islands is April 24, 2023.
