Britain's man in Belize, the PM's girlfriend and a very sudden exit

A senior British diplomat has been ordered back home from his post in Central America following allegations about his behaviour at a party.
The abrupt departure of John Yapp from his job as British High Commissioner in Belize comes just ten months into his three-year posting.
Rumours began circulating after a local TV channel reported that he was forced out because of ‘behaviour not consistent with his status as a diplomat’.
Whispering campaign: Were the rumours about John Yapp started by a woman he spurned?
The 57-year-old denied any wrongdoing but the Foreign Office ordered him to remain in Britain pending an investigation.
According to a Mail on Sunday source, Mr Yapp, who is believed to have been divorced three times, was accused of ‘inappropriate’ behaviour towards two women at a charity event in April.
The first woman was identified by local sources as Kim Simplis, the live-in girlfriend of the country’s Prime Minister, Dean Barrow. She was not available for comment yesterday.
The second, businesswoman Lauren Reardon Smith....

How dare you Ms. Margaret Johnson “Belize has a new hush-hush Miss Belize”

Oh my, I am an out spoken individual regarding a number of topics relating to my beautiful country Belize; however I never thought that I would start my first blog post like this.

I am so disgusted over the comments mad tonight by Ms. Margaret Johnson of “Pageants Belize” the organization with rights over the Miss Belize pageant. Ok I going to keep it real her... from the time this lady bought over the rights for Pageants Belize in 2005 it seem like she has been taking the professional image down to the dirt. For reference, take a look at http://web.archive.org/web/20030210174531/http://www.missbelize.bz/ and http://web.archive.org/web/20040616092334/www.missbelize.bz/2004/ now lets fast forward to 2008 and take a look at http://www.missbelize.bz.

Now to what got me disgusted about Ms. Johnson... a new Miss Belize was crowned but the shock and disrespect to the country is that Belizeans did not get an opportunity to enjoy the moment with the new Miss Belize as she get crowned in such a “prestigious” pageant. The new Miss Belize instead was crowned in a rundown looking house on Raccoon Street Ext. Apparently at the home of Ms. Johnson with only a few guests. And who were these invited guests... on the family members of the ladies vying for the prestigious pageant. Now when asked why the pageant was held in such a location, her response was annoying to me and I know a number of Belizeans probably felt the same way. “quote: it is a new format and some people in Belize just would not understand it”.

Ok Ms. Johnson I am a “duncy” Belizean eh!
Now I agree that Miss Universe and Miss World are pageants that help to promote your country, culture, tourism, etc. However, how can we support an organization headed by an individual that looks upon an entire country as “duncy”... country that she claims is her home.
