Richard cannot influence jack!!!
Mesier is a poison that can only poison people who depend on him.
A lot of flambeaus are just trying to tolerate Richard.
lets see what is the outcome of the leadership vote.Hopefully partymembers vote for a professional with business experience. About Fredrick, a man with such low character should not be allowed to be in active politics
CHASTANET WHO HE B?
KING ALL--------------THE WAY!!!!
OR GUY JOSEPH????
The hyenas are at one another's throat!
Get the popcorn, will you? I want front row seats!
Change in needed in UWP. As to if Alan is the right pick I am not so sure but the old rear guard King ! He is no leader , in my mind he arrived there by default.
It is good to see there is some movement for change in the party and I hope few more names get in the cap.
Interesting that Spider expressed his interest in the leadership position also, but that didn't really gain traction in the media.
UWP needs a breath of fresh air. Let Regobert in.
The Tuxedo affair has shown the tendency and direction that former members of the Ali Baba gang will go.
Chastenet, King and that other unmentionable one, or I will sin my soul, are spoilt goods.
Spider? Leadership?
Spider who?
Jokers!!
CHASTANET WHO HE B?
KING ALL--------------THE WAY!!!!
OR GUY JOSEPH????
___________________________
When you have party members asking for King to stay and saying they would prefer to have Guy Joseph of all persons as their leader nstead of Chastanet, flambeau tomby bein bar!!!
By the way if this is the kind of people we have in the party I want them to know that UWP not the only party in the country. There have two others I can chose from.
All of the former UWP cabinet members have been placed on the balance and found wanting.
When we talking about leadership material don't count Spider in that. Explain to me what new ideas he can bring to the country ? Some of you can't be serous .
He needn't get involved in the murkiness of party politics to create change. People in SLU have become so passive that they no longer advocate for themselves. Even businessmen like Chastanet don't understand the amount of power they wield--from the sidelines. Yet another formidable bloc who fail to effectively utilize their influence.
He who controls the food, controls the people--their levels of anger and frustration too. By now, supermarket chain owners should know that a little discomfort goes a long way.
Spoilt Goods! That is all the UWP now has vying for its leadership. The shallowness, the emptiness and the hollowness of the personalities vying for leadership shows what can be expected of these empty vessels in the future.
Do these people of their own know or have what it takes to develop a country? No!
To sell and do more drugs? Yes!
UWP, as usual, is scraping the bottom of the barrel. And it stinks.
Let Regobert lead. She is relatively unscathed by the corruption of the past. Call back Ms Compton back into the fold. Bring BACK in some of the values of UWP's heyday.
Stop insulting the intelligence of the people.
Dump the goons, the drug barons, the brats, the felons, the convicts, the liars, the cheats, the retards, and John Compton's broomsticks!
John Compton's "broomsticks" . . . never heard that before. LOLOL
Spider..No way
Alan or Guy in my view. Pity they cant have 2 leaders a guard to guard the guard.
Bring Rigobert to do what?? Ever since St Lucians looked and saw what was under the skirt of Kenny Anthony,a PHD is no longer a . prerequisite for leadership. It would take much more than that. Rigobert can't even effectively relate the people who sent her to the house you think its the rest of St Lucia she will be able to relate too.

The only person even closely connected to the UWP that deserves a vote and the so called leaders have been fighting for years is Sarah. For years while The UWP was comatose she brought the fight to Kenny ans was the best Minister the Labour party had. And we fighting over king or chastanet or guy. LOL !
Ms Flood was light years ahead of her peers in terms of the instruments and mechanisms of parliament. However, she lacked the maturity or instincts of a real politician.
She allowed too much emotion to enter into her decision making. That is why she is not head of the UWP today.
Back to simplistic thinking you go with all that talk about degree.
Fact: Nobody talked about the degree when Saint John Compton, Lord of Lords, Master of all he surveyed, got the stooges and stool pigeons to cross the floor to follow him.
Nobody!
He was just as new to the people, As was Kenny at one time. As was King still doing basically recitation of the budget sentences.
Today, the living have a following.
If Saint John Compton so idiotized the population that they hate to read newspapers, learn anything new, and loathe those who have studied or are studying abroad in particular, don't blame those people who know about self-improvement if the rest of the population is disgusted with them.
A lot of people love those two UWP guys. They talk industrial strength crap with flair. No problem.
Isn't a sad commentary on this country that of Saint John Compton, it has been said that he had fooled the people so much, that if he were to place even broomsticks on the platform, and on the ballots, the people of Saint Lucia would vote for those UWP broomsticks and place them in office.
And they did.
Smarter Saint Lucians like Hunter J. Francois who was instrumental in seeding the idea of university of Saint Lucia, was kicked out of the UWP.
Nobody talked about arrogance then though.
The legacy of Saint John Compton is for Saint Lucians to vote for returning sets of broomsticks, and yet expect economic development from those broomsticks.
From broomsticks, we! LOL!
Little wonder they say that Saint Lucia is idiot country.
"From broomsticks, we! LOL!...CLASSIC.
Your observation is very accurate, above.
OK FELLERS!! LET US B SERIOUS?
GIVE PETER JOSIE, FREDERICK,
WICK RAIN, O!lazy-boy Augustin, OR BETTER YET BRING BACK FROM THE DEAD DOCKY DOC, GUY LOVE, BWA MITAN, NORMAN SHAW, ARUBA BOUDEN RUBBA OR DE GO KOCHONNI 2 LEAD DE U W PSSSSSS AND B P M OF THIS PIS-HOLE. DO AWAY WITH PARTY POLITIC.
I WAS READING DE PALM OF M. CHASTANET HAND WHEN I SEE THOSE NAMES.
Look at this picture properly. Allen Chastanet can never reach the position of Prime Minister in St. Lucia. Never.
St. Lucians better be smart. Don't forget who was behind Chastanet in his pick by John Compton in that so-called Cabinet. He has been kicked in a corner by the St. Lucian electorate; and hiding in the shadows behind Chastanet.
He has tried everything in the book to get to be Prime Minister in St. Lucia but nothing has worked. Why? Because of his tricks; wiles, deceit,deception, connivance, and all that is evil.
He just loves money and wants to put his hands on the Country's monies at all cost. He is known by St. Lucians as a crook. Selling Government lands to himself as swamp lands and then selling those same lands to investors for millions.
But Chastanet will get just the kick out of Lucian politics he rightly deserves; like his twin-friend; who gave him the job he ever had in the Civil Service.
Both he and his deceptive friend both used Stephenson King and both had the nerve to turn on King. They will both be up for a rude awakening. We are not fooled.
Imagine Chastanet tried to bamboozle the OECS High Court Judges in the infamous case of TUXEDO VILLAS SCANDAL.
CROOKS in Government! Not good for this country.
The characteristics of Chastanet's friend is so well known; that without calling his name; most St. Lucians will know who we are referring to here. We will not be fooled. Yet again.
UMH! The Rattle-Snakes are destroying themselves.
Queek-Quak. LOL.
I'm loving it.
Dump John Compton's broomsticks, yet you want his daughter Jeannine Compton in?
Madness. The woman and her mother were on National Television dancing with Mr. Richard Frederick; on the election platform in Mon Repos; after it was said he was part of a gang who put so much stress on John Compton that led to his (Compton's demise)?
You'll folks must be jokers.
Compton's daughter should be the last person we in St. Lucia should ever allow the opportunity to enter politics and Government in this Country.
The woman is a waste. Proved to be a complete waste during her time in Parliament. Can neither speak nor express herself. Shame, Shame, Shame. A bunch of crap. You all really believe that you will continue to insult St. Lucians? Time will tell.
Ms. Compton-Rambally my black ass.
If St. Lucians no matter how few, believe that Sarah whatever her name is; was the Labour Party's best Minister, it tells us a hell of a lot about you folks.
Sarah? I won't even waste my time to elucidate further.
Her record in the Government Service is well known.
You talk about hypocrisy? Deceit and deception? Interesting.
Have you started the campaign?
That must ba a Labour Party hack calling for Sarah Flood to be in the UWP. Because it is their desire to see UWP remain in the wilderness for forty years.
Why do they still keep hanging on to that stupid CoCo Palm article all this time? What's the significance of this?
Labour and LPM must be laughing their arse off.

.....................
Surprise! Surprise! With this POLICE LINE UP of candidates? Fifty years!
Jackass! What line up of Candidates? T-Chas did not win a seat this time around but that is no bearing on the future. Loads of politicians have failed the first time and come back to win. MY pooint: He aren't a criminal. Now on the so called candidate talk? The man who is leader of the party now won his seat by over 1000 votes. Go and ask Lorne and company how much they won their seats by? They can't be seating too comfortably for the next five years.
You up there May 12, 2013 at5:53 PM. Don't blow a gasket because someone has touched a raw nerve.
Is it that the truth hurts so much, UWP yardfowl? Are you singing for your supper too?
U don't know jack about our politics. Why don't u go suck on a pillow with your papishiw. Say something that u have not said before.
The man for the job is the one who can develop the country, and improve the lives of the PEOPLE and, Alan is better positioned to do just that!
Really? How? By giving out consultancies and having the consultant fire the job? Where is the result?
And why did he, if he were such a wiz kid in tourism, why did he have to pay a consultant to tell us nothing? A lot of it.
And if Ti Chas was so great, why the US Head Hunters did not come out to interview him to work for one of the several US airlines?
And if he is the sharpest tool in the shed, why did Air Jamaica's marketing fail and the airline saw its demise under his management wizardry?
Does he have answers or just gimmicks?
And since when have the Chastenets ever identified and aligned themselves with the people? With making money? Yes! Yes! And yes!
With the people? In the newspaper columns? Great show!
I don't understand what all the fuss is about. In fighting within political parties isn't new. Ask the SLP how much infighting there have been within the party. Even when Kenny dethrone Hunte there was a show. It it goes back far from here.
He really dethroned Hunte? The old guard including Hunte happily endorsed Kenny.
They handed the leadership to him on a platter. They did not think that the were able to compete with Kenny.
All three had just ambition but no real muscular plans to transform the country. Only the rank and file were not let in on the secret, and are still too blind now to understand what is missing.
Really? How? By giving out consultancies and having the consultant fire the job? Where is the result?

The result is that the Tourist Board is somehow still using TV ads that feature the plagiarised "Live the Legend" tagline. Though the words appear clearly on-screen, the narrator replaces "legend" with "love". By approving the broadcast of material purported to be plagiarised, isn't the SLTB inviting trouble?
"...[I]sn't the SLTB inviting trouble?"
May 13, 2013 at 10:30 PM
-------------------
Not really. It is not an academic setting and it is not known that "Live the legend" is part of any trade mark or patent. But ...! If it is then "there can be trouble in paradise."
Our marketing genius did not come into office with his own ideas for a slogan, you mean?
This cogently demonstrates, that for him like the others before him, he was NOT prepared for much -- other than the collection of a salary, a pension and a title.
No god damn preparation for the role.
We have so many shysters in government and those running for office in this country!
You see, whether it is Saint John Compton, Hoodlum, Kenny, King or Chastenet, NEITHER of these people have had a driving national message that captures the imaginations of the people to take them out of poverty and their state of economic underdevelopment.
Whether or not the entire population goes into orgasmic-like spasms with either "Flambeau! Flambeau!" or "En rouge! En rouge!", that does NOT represent a rallying cry of national determination for NATIONAL greatness or national strides to economic excellence!
Down with the "we will do better than them" crap!
Both the essentially cosmetic S.T.E.P. and its unimaginative UWP copycat, remain billboard equivalents for national bandages in shoot-shate economics!
we are all dead brain leading dead ass people in this shit hole plase!!!
nothing can ever please us.
bring back de "KING" ON WE BACK-SIDES??
votex, you might as well lie-down your sorry ass next to a hole in the cemetery,and do the world a great favour....roll in!!
I Sam Juke Bois Flood want a change in the leadership . King will have to step down for Allen. We want Allen Chastanet. If king wins I will not campaign on the radio again
NOW WE TALKING!!! Great move Chastanet! You have my support all the way!!!! If you get through, and I hope you do, I know you will represent our country well both locally and INTERNATIONALLY! You have my seal of approval!!
"Those who vex lose!"
Both the essentially cosmetic S.T.E.P. and its unimaginative UWP copycat, remain billboard equivalents for national bandages in shoot-shate economics!

In order to make these programs sustainable, one must train, equip and facilitate opportunities for advancement. They are not mutually exclusive. Training devoid of equipment and opportunity results in failure.
Sadly, we won't realize that until we stop kidding ourselves. Some of us come up with the most asinine excuses for glaring incompetence. Do we really believe that a couple hundred bucks--in the entire year--in the hands of a STEP worker will spur economic growth? The truth is this person still has no disposable income!
Oh, I almost forgot. Since past and present administrations appear to be more into acronyms than anything (SMILE, NICE, YEP, YAP, STEP and STEP-UP), here's a big TOE to suck on! Yes, I said it, TOE--Training Opportunity Equipment.
My apologies to all concerned.
Least dirty shirt. If Chastenet wins, it would be the same as the UWP going to the dirty clothes hamper and picking out to wear out to work, the least dirty shirt.
UWP stinks! UWP sucks!
@ 10:37 wr 2 pals remember?
we both zombies. but remember u kill your brain with 2 much coke.
Any body that JUKE BOIS promotes is an ass.
And we in this country cannot take a chance; and vote for any ass.
Sarah is too emotive. Anyone driven predominantly by emotions will not be an effective leader. Sometimes decisions are best left to experts, regardless of the leader's 'feelings'.
In the lead-up to the 2006 general elections, when she was a hot ticket, she allowed herself to be outfoxed by a wannabe puppeteer. When she finally came to her senses years later it was too late; the damage had already been done. If there's one thing the local political landscape has taught is a simple cardinal rule: trust no one.
Chastanet....Chastanet!!!!!! Are Lucians crazy? or very near there????This man is a power monger, an extravagant P.O.S, one who cannot relate with the average man.....and we talking about giving hima chance - CRAZY
Chastanet....Chastanet!!!!!! Are Lucians crazy? or very near there????This man is a power monger, an extravagant P.O.S, one who cannot relate with the average man.....and we talking about giving hima chance - CRAZY
Some of these folks in St. Lucia insist on planting people like Kenny Anthony on our backsides. See now they trying to place Chastanet on our backsides. But he'll find out.
Don't both that Chastanet and Kenny, look alike? They are look alikes in all forms.
Whoy, whoy, whoy, yon car mar-geer yon-nare lot, say sar.
Rascals, the lot them!
The voters will decide in 3 yrs or so. Anybody can be PM if the voters wants him/her, because we live in a Westminster style democracy.
