It is so pathetic and shameful to see the SLP engaging in this type of Gossip-politics, “IF Chastanet were elected Prime Minster”?

“IF the Soufriere Volcano exploded and killed all the supporters of SLP and Chastanet was elected by default.”

Are you Lucian SLP politicians that Brain Damaged from drinking too much Rum and praying to this Naked white man nailed to that piece of wood, that you would seriously expect Chastanet to respond to such a silly hypothetical scenario? Even Chastanet is not that stupid to respond to such trash from SLP Morons.

Kenny last week was La Corbinier and now this piece of trash?

Dear Sir:

Oh yes. You never miss the water till the well run dry. In this case I hope it’s just a lull while the well spring is replenished. With so much taking place on and off the island one would expect the Flogg Blog at full power -- firing at all cylinders.

The UWP leader and his preferred deputy -- two rookies, locally and international, if you ask me -- have just returned from a much publicized meeting with UK residents, something which he is good at, I mean – meet and greet -- talk and more talk. To be continued in New York and Canada. That should be interesting.

Anyway, in the interest of full disclosure attending such a meeting downtown London on a Sunday is not my cup of tea. Neither would I appreciate my intelligence to be mixed up with marketing ploys, rehearsed theatrics, trickledown economics or voodoo economics for that matter. I have seen and heard enough of that, which accounts for the current state of affairs on the island. I prefer to be at peace with myself in the English countryside.

Participants indicated that just about 36-38 residents attended. A loyal supporter said 50+ attended the meeting. My arithmetic is not up to par. In this instance I would prefer a UWP economist to solve that equation (36 to 38 and 50+) for the benefit of us all.

Other commentators indicated that for the first time the crowd was not bad. Ouch! You mean after all that time in government and as a tourism and marketing expert; the UWP and its leader can only attract that much of an audience? That’s what I would expect the LPM to attract in such a forum. Anyway! To me that’s a poor turnout, but I would have to wait for the answer to the math equation above.

That’s where the Flogg Blog comes in to tell apart the truth from fiction. On the New York and Canada leg of the talk shop it would probably be worth the effort to have Stephenson King tag along. Maybe his experience and appearance would stimulate a better performance than two rookies.

But who would know that better than the Flogg Blog; a much sought after publication to stand up and speak out. Of late the silence worries me. Actually it’s killing me literally, since nothing beats a late night reading than a well written Flogg. And so maybe, I should offer a modest sum of $2,500 for a write-up on the UK Diaspora meeting. I know, I know… this may not be as juicy a topic of say Stephenson King and Richard Frederick prior to the UWP leadership elections/selection and the happenings now!

I just miss the Flogg Blog and am trying to replenish the well spring.

Jackass politicians always wind up with half-ass jackass ideas. What's next?

Did his MBA instructors instill in him the necessity to also outsource the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and foreign consulates?

Tell which country in the world has processing and printing of it's passports by a private entity? This is a function that needs to be under the government's control.

Tell me, what Party was in power when it was alleged that Passports were being sold to Libyans and other Arab citizens?
Now they are spreading all kinds of rumors about a man that's giving them nightmares.
The thing that you fear the most will one day come back to haunt you.

Such rubbish coming from a governing party.
Let me add to it.
If Kenny Anthony becomes incapacitated next month,will LEO CLARKE replace him as prime minister?
I am asking the SLP to clarify because we understand that this was discussed at a private meeting in Marigot two weeks ago.

This also happened when Compton was PM, Lucian passports were being sold by this high ranking Bajan that was in the Police Force and in charge of that department. This is a function/revenue stream that needs to stay in government control but with better checks and balances.
