TCCP unveils new candidate for George Town Central
(CNS): Anthony Ramoon, a former national footballer, is stepping down from his job at the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority, where he has worked for almost two decades, to campaign for office in George Town Central with The Cayman Community Party (TCCP). Ramoon, a native of the capital, will be going up against incumbent Kenneth Bryan, who recently declared he will be running with the PPM, and Carmen McField, who is running on the Cayman Islands National Party ticket.
Ramoon joins a line-up of ten candidates running with the TCCP, the Cayman Islands’ newest political party and the only one of the official teams that has made a real commitment to conservation, checking over-development through proper planning, and a greening economy as Cayman faces an uncertain future in the face of climate change.
This is the first time on the hustings for Ramoon, who has deep family roots in George Town Central spanning generations. As well as a professional background regulating the offshore sector and his fame as a national player, Ramoon was described by the TCCP as “a strong advocate for the arts and cultural preservation”.
As a founding member of the artist collective Native Sons and supporter of the Cayman Islands Cultural Foundation, the National Gallery, and Pirates Week, among others, he has played a key role in promoting Caymanian art and culture, the TCCP said.
TCCP Leader André Ebanks
André Ebanks (WBS incumbent) is the leader of The Caymanian Community Party. He has served as financial services minister 2021-2024, and deputy premier 2023-2024. More welcomed Ramoon’s candidacy. “Anthony’s strong ties to George Town Central, combined with his financial services expertise and dedication to community, make him an ideal representative,” Ebanks said. “He reflects the values of integrity, openness, and leadership that define the Caymanian Community Party.”
Ramoon is joining the TCCP, standing for honest governance and a commitment to community over special interests. “I’m proud to run with the TCCP, a party that puts Caymanians first,” he said. “George Town Central has always been my home, and I’m ready to represent and work for greater transparency, accountability, and opportunities for our people and bring them forward.”

Change writes: Every constituency has the same issue when their MP becomes a minister. It is not that they stop caring about their area, but Cabinet members have no choice but to tackle issues at national level, and that takes budget, meetings, reports, travel, conference calls, sitting with lawyers to streamline bills and laws — all […]
I control -80 votes
cause I ain’t voting for nobody!
Are you my uncle? I’ve been trying to contact you about your car’s extended warranty.
Anti i wish you the very best and really hope the people in GTC vote you in. We really to break up the boys club and the party politics which is destroying this country.
I really wish you was running in Savannah. Good luck!
Sterling Dwayne Ebanks is running too. He will say where tomorrow.
Thank God. Not for him running, but for not having to listen to him on the radio.
To 2:44pm
Great guy…losing team.
Mad respect for Anti!! Great guy, and I am confident he would be a great representative for GTC.
Kenneth is a poor excuse after what he is doing against the Scranton families. He needs to go from yesterday.
It is such a win for Cayman to see someone like Mr Ramoon make the decision to try to serve the country as an MP.
He has already contributed in so many ways and I applaud him for taking this risk.
I would love to see more individuals with his character step forward.
Great, great guy! GTC do the right thing, he is the best candidate by far! Which he was in GTE.
As the GTC voters have come to realise, the Election Day 25 dollar hand outs by Kenneth just around the corner from the polling station was all just an invitation to take the land of multi-generational Caymanian families living in GTC, in particular Scranton area.
More Kenneth = Less Scranton Community
Yeah but Cricket Square has a nice park, so there’s that.
What a great candidate. Come on GTC, elect a candidate that can really assist your community AND the country. A person with smarts. Elevate GTC to meaningful representation not just someone who spends your money on pie in the sky promises.
An-t is quiet but very smart. He is humble and knowledgeable.
He has integrity.
He is honest.
George Town Central – do the right thing.
I support Anthony Ramoon Good Luck
Please get someone for George Town South as well. Please, please,
Don’t know why they wast their time. Like it or not, Kenneth will win GTC by a landslide.
Gambling is illegal in the Cayman Islands. If it were not, I’d give you 5:1 odds on $1000. Too bad for me. Your money would spend so sweetly.
Yay!!!! Finally someone I’m excited about!
Go AnT!
Good luck Anthony Ramoon.
The 33 votes I control in GTC will be for him. Shame about the party affiliation but they won’t win enough seats to form a government so we in GTC will be better off with Anthony.
4:49, “the 33 votes I control”. Are you really proud of this? It’s exactly one of the reasons we have an infantile political system in this country. Your boast used to be the one we all heard in all the districts by the “big men” 50 years ago but surely to God in Heaven we’ve advanced since then. You have 33 people who have no clue who and what they are voting for but just follow your orders??? No wonder foreigners are contemptuous of us.
so let me get this straight, you want a government that have a leader, is organized and move as one, but you have a problem with a an extended family doing the same?
You’re naive bordering on foolish if you think that the foreigners don’t do the same thing.
Furthermore, who gives an actual shit what they think?
Lol you talking bout some “votes I control” like say you some Don or Jefe or Pablo Escobar, calm down my guy. The votes you control is for some third world country elections, you’re not all that. I don’t want KB to get back in either, but you think say you the s**t and it’s lame as hell, corny bro. I can even bet say you one of them old bruddas that think they still hard lol.
Ha! Now we talkin’
Sir, I wish you all the best. The opponent loves to throw shade, but do not fall for it. I do not vote there, but if I did, I would be happy to have a quality option.
