The writing is on the wall...
My predictions for Elections 2011:

17 0 0 0 0 in favor of the SLP.

Long live the SLP God's chosen ppl to lead St Lucia forward.They will win the upcoming elections. Brother Kenny "Moses" Anthony will lead our ppl on to the promised land. Just remember my predictions on 19/11/2011.

Now all you UWP apologists, sympathizers, hacks and opportunists you can now start your usual rantings with y'all foul mouths,sweaty faces/smelly armpits, foaming mouths and bad breath!

When labour re-instate the Universal Health Care (UHC) that UWP removed then you will all get the opportunity to get dental surgery free!

Better days are coming!!!

Richard Frederick is not only a time bomb ready to explode but his involvement in the politics of Saint Lucia is the most frightening and dangerous deed ever to occur in the history of St. Lucian politics.

If outsiders like the State Department in American and the Caribbean regional governments can see that, why don't we at home understand that. The interest of our country is at risk with R.F. on the ballot. Somehow we do not understand the future implications of a Minister's diplomatic status being revoked. We do not understand the threat he poses to our country. People need to wake up and smell the coffee. King has embraced a bag of trouble in his wine & dance and our people will suffer the consequences thereafter.
The polls call for a wise decision. Ladies & gentlemen, brothers & sisters, exercise that wisdom.......Please.

I SAY, HOG WASH, TO THIS ARTICLE. RICHARD FREDERICK WILL WIN HIS SEAT, BIG TIME. YOU LUCIANS MUST GO CLEAN UP THE DRUG BARONS IN COMMERCIAL BUSINESS FIRST AND FOREMOST, IF YOU WANT TO START ANYTHING RIGHT. START AT RODNEY BAY MARINA, THE GROCERY STORE ETC.
SO PUT THAT IN YOUR PIPE AND SMOKE IT.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE CAE OF BANANA BOXES FROM VIEUX-FORT FOUND IN THE UNITED KINGDOM WITH COCAINE?

AND WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE CASE OF THE MAN FACILITATED THROUGH THE VIP LOUNGE AT THE VIEUX-FORT HEWANORRA AIRPORT, WHO WAS FOUND AND ARRESTED UPON HIS ARRIVAL WITH COCAINE IN LONDON?

You call it hog wash! Wait and see!

Do you remember, Pablo Escoba, the world's most notorious drug lord of Columbia?

Do you know that he was elected to the Columbian Congress by the people and all of them knew he was destroying lives, households, families by supplying cocaine? Yet they voted for him.

It was the mighty United States that put pressure on the Columbian Government that force Escoba to eventually resign.

Drug Barons do get people to vote for them and get elected. However it is a clear reflection on the people and the values they don't hold. Therefore, in large measure they are responsible for the ills of the society. We are told in the greatest book that the love of money is the root of all evil.

Escoba met his fate and so will all drug traffickers.

Thank you so much for putting this out there, I hope St. lucians do the right thing. We have to really look at the people that we put in power.

For those who want more information about Escoba being elected to Columbia's Congress, here are the links:

http://www.xtimeline.com/evt/view.aspx?id=864280

http://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/crime-files/pablo-escobar/biography.html

and here is an excerpt from on the sites:

He always did exactly as he pleased and would, more often than not, kill anyone who dared oppose him. In this way, Escobar’s power grew and he was associated with many kidnaps and assassinations over the years. He also had an affable side and due to his growing wealth and influence, enjoyed a certain amount of public popularity and political standing. In 1982 Escobar was elected as a deputy representative to the Chamber of Representatives of Colombia’s Congress, as part of the Colombian Liberal Party. He went on to sponsor various charities and football clubs in the Medellin area.

This cannot be the St. Lucia I once knew. A st. Lucia where our supposed socio economic elite it is said will vote for a former felon from the USA, a MP who associates with drug barons, ministers who are in contempt of the law.

Is this the St. Lucia that goes to Church on Sunday and then intends to vote for these miscreants on Monday.

How low have we fallen as a so called DECENT people. There is no longer anything decent about us.

Even more telling this is not linked to only one party. The SLP vote for a leader who failed from 1997 to 2006 and bankrupted the country and pit brother against brother politically.

We really have fallen a long way.

The St. Lucia Labour Party made a huge political mistake when they let Kenny run again as political leader and kept Mario out of the leadership position.

They lost their soul when the leadership of that party attacked Sarah Flood Beaubrun and alienated with her the very value system we needed to keep St. Lucia on the right path. Had you both Sarah and Mario running you would have won in a landslide. Actually in alienating Sarah you lost the best hope for St. Lucia to get out of the present mess. Courageous, principled and a worker.


Imagine you have allowed yourselves 5 more years in the wilderness because the like of Skeete,claudius, Leo Clarke, Walcott, the crazy lawyer from Cap, etc wanted to keep their links with Kenny and the chance to make a monee.

Kenny has brought you to your knees.

The only hope the SLP have is that they lose 9 -8 and not 10-7 or 12-5.

Set your sights on 2016.

Author, you are the spitting image of Michael Jackson's doctor.

Go practice your killer medicine and leave jouralism for those who actually have something to say. Enough is enough is enough on this Frederic Visa matter.

America has moved on; and so should you. Amen.

It sad to read the comments written here in support of Mr.Fredrick. The supporter has failed to speak to the substantive issue.

LLL said...

To the block-head or Blogger at 5:32am; The strength of the SLP is in the Leadership. If you are so wise then tell us, who commands leadership in the UWP? Booooo! It is not King; he became an accidental PM, not a leader.

For starters, a leader does not allow people like Wyclef Jean to jump over him. He should be the one jumping over Wyclef. King has disrespected our nation and our people.
For closers, this water-boy has denounced the decision taken by the U.S. Embassy by loafing around with despicable and unwanted characters. You know the persons in subject.

We need leaders like Kenny (a thoughtful & respectable Politician) to face the current crisis this COMMON regime has dragged us into. The people who don't see it that way are those who have no love for our people and who want our dear Helen to go to the dogs.

The peoples decision is imminent.
28 November.....vote....LABOUR.

When senile Compton brought in that despicable Frederick character into his party just to win power [Compton knew in his heart of hearts that he was not going to be able to held on to power for a long time] it was like what the cat brought in. Disgusting!

But there are two constituencies in St. Lucia with very large numbers of disgusting people like Choiseul and Central Castries. They get scumbags and slim eballs just like themselves to represent them.

Kenny indeed made it possible for senile Compton's reentry into politics. Up to now, that man does not get it. He rides on the shoulders of a lot of uncritical followers who thinks that he is the Almighty's answer to all of St. Lucia's problems.

Yes he is better than King in many ways. But he is no Moses. He had 10 years to prove that he is not. We have a very poor system that does not even now suit the British we got that rubbish from with a lazy and unsophisticated electorate. We will get the kind of country and government we deserve anyhow.

Didn't Johnson not become an accidental President upon the death of Kennedy?
Didn't Ford not become an accidental President upon the resignation of Nixon?

And didn't the United States of America not become an accidental super power from Hitler waging WWII?

Look, God made King an accidental prime minister because he saw that it was good; and if you had any common sense, you too would vote for him in this upcoming election.

Vote for a jackass that allows an entertainer to jump over his back, that allows a drug lord to punch him in the face, that allows a drug lord to rule him and he has the title of PM, that allows himself and his cabinet to allow from the leakage of money from the treasury in illegal concessions. You must be an ass. But there are many others like you who will vote for real jackasses. God? Which God? Your god is Satan himself!

Someone wrote "God made King an accidental prime minister because he saw that it was good"

Maybe so. God also gave Israel many wicked and incompetent kings to rule over them because he saw that it was good. For they deserved it.

Hopefully we have repented sufficiently so that God will see it fit to give us a decent leader to take us back to prosperity.
Hopefully he will not give us a "King" who will allow his crooked ministers to tell him what to do and say and bring more shame to our country.
Ask for this Frederick guy. Who is this god he speaks so often about and who he claims lead him to behave the way he does? It couldn't possibly be the God of the bible otherwise the bible would be a complete fake.

Kudos to Mr. Antoine for taking on the political giants single-handed and standing up for truth and what is right. He does not do like many and hide behind fake names to express his feelings. Of course some of us are afraid to identify ourselves for fear of being victimised (that I understand) but it's all the more reason why I want to commend my Antoine for his stance and bravery.

For now, there is only one party that appear to be ready to govern this country and no doubt it's the SLP. so they will hear from me on the 28th.

I think this article was well thought out and written for the edification of all St. Lucians regardless of party affiliation. This article should guide all voters in making the right decission before casting their ballot this coming elections. We have seen how our beautiful island has declined morally and we are peaping the results in crimes and lawlessness. Lets get back to the basics!

Well said Antoine. SLP all the way.

Blogger November 19,2011 at 9.33Am I fully agree with your comment. That's what I am saying. We must be fair and mete out justice fairly. We have seen many lifestyles in St. Lucia and we know many things, but we choose to attack and expose very often the least of the culprits/offenders. There is just too much HYPOCRISY, and that is why we are in this sad state in St. Lucia. It started with John Compton, condoning corruption with his sidekick civil servant turned politician.

And how come you are not elected yet? So you see, not all Drug Barons get elected.

You wouldn't know a decent leader even if one jump-up and bite you in the butt.
You couldn't ask for a more decent human being than Stephenson King; period!!!!

30 years of corrupt Compton rule saw his well-placed yes-men in places that made his party and government look good. They are always working or singing for their supper.

We saw that yet again! The UWP created a spectacular GDP growth rate when most of economies who were producing actual physical goods were in decline. Shameless manipulation of statistics.

It was 'lies, damn lies, and statistics'.

Will the electorate vote for more of the same? Will the Labour Party let Kenny spend money as though the Treasury were his own porky piggy-bank?

Come November 28, St. Lucians will say to the world whether we are as corrupt as the current people in parliament, as dishonest as the people in parliament, as ignorant and imbeciles as those two guys in the UWP, as morally bankrupts as Fredericks, the other PM king, and the current AG?

After that vote, will some investors and some people vote with their feet? Leave St. Lucia?

WHOEVER WROTE THIS.

I say you couldn't ask for a bigger liar than King. A leader who follows rather than lead, condones rather than condemn decadence. Avoids the general press for four years and continuing. Lies to protect a drug baron and his own job at the expense of the country. Bends over for another jack-ass to jump over him on an international stage. Lies to the nation about Compton's health, Bousquet's sacking, Frederick's Visa revocation and the list goes on.

And some jack-ass thinks that he's the best thing out? What a world!

BPR said...

You, Frederick supporter.

Richard might win his seat because he have many criminal friends, associates and former and future clients voting for him and of course you the one who honors him (I'm not sure under which category you fit in).
He may even overcome the recent setbacks he has suffered lately. I'm not talking about the VISA revocation, I'm referring to the 12 police killings so far for the year and consequently the loss of 12 sure votes.
It's a pity our laws won't allow those in Bordelais to vote otherwise Frederick would have no chance of loosing.
Even the devil have his supporters you know.
If there is an election in hell between the devil and God, who do you think will win? Who will you and Frederick vote for, do you care if I guess?

I think Andrew has a very long way to go before he becomes a writer of substance. He writes as he talks and his brains appear to have too many holes. Poor jab.

The sad thing is, Frederick will most likely win his seat. A sad state of affairs for St. Lucia. If the UWP wins this election then Crapo smoke our pipe :(

I am certain that God will deliver us from this group of corrupt, incompetent, victimizing, selfish and greedy group of UWP men. God be praised. I await my testimony and victory in Jesus name. Believe voters that it can be done in Jesus name and it will be done.
