I have never voted for someone who is less educated than I am. I am not ready to do so, or ever going to do so now.
The only intelligent sounding person in the entire UWP is that international relations lady. But international relations will not solve our 40% poverty, nor our 20% unemployment rate.
International relations have nothing to do with economic strategy. The UWP has shown that international relations has more to do with national prostitution and international begging. Nothing at all to do with economic development.
UWP is making political prostitutes of St. Lucians for a little rum and chicken legs wiCth Taiwanese money. Corruption knows no bounds with these people.
Only idiots validate and vote for other idiots who associate with more idiots.
Under the UWP, St. Lucia is idiot country.
to the point above... sad but true
don't know why people prefer voting for idiots rather than educated people who can make a difference .... but then again apparently polities is no place for "nice boys" (Francis quote)
Born a uwp, voted them every election but this year he will not get my vote.
How could he take any opposition off guard when he does not even have a candidate in place for Vieux-Fort south? he is instead going to vieux-fort north which is primarily a labour constituency.
apparently he is missing one side of his shoes. His ingraditude has made it difficult.
NO problem. Naming a candidate can happen within a sec. King have spoken a lot of papishow in the past but he is right.
He can call elections when the hell he wants too. This is the power of being PM.
I happened in Castries by sheer accident on Thursday night. Then, I saw the crowd (a couple hundreds) in the Wm Peter Blvd, reaslising that it was a UWP meeting, I stopped and listened.
My God!! The stupidity and ignorance of Stephenson King brought a new meaning to the saying, "the end"; "the lowest of the low". When I thought he could not have sank any lower, he disgustingly surprised me. I was thoroughly and absolutely disgusted too, when I heard the PM said he is building a new medical school/hospital so that the Bajans, French and the Americans could come here, yes here - St Lucia, for medical treatment!! He termed it "medical tourism". Surely, this man has a loose or a few loose screws somewhere scattered about his body!!
Then the most questionable one of the gang, the one who associates himself with persons of ill-repute, the one who put these goons on tv, came to the mike - the mud, the maipwis, the name calling began in urnest. Lord, what a group!
Rather than vomitted on the premises of the RBC, I turned around and walked away.
Surely, St Lucians can do better than that. Can't we?
Did you say he can, but only when the Mafia Don says so? People have the evidence to prove this, if they would only come forward with it. King can do absolutely nothing until he gets the say-so. Therefore, stop fooling yourselves.
We need all the international observers we can get except those from CARICOM. Lord, please not CARICOM. It does not have a better standing than the goons that make up the UWP.
Thanks Hon PM I wil be liberated...I have been waiting and I hope u give us an early Christmas gift. I love and respect you but the vultures around you will courser you this election
Cannot bear it any longer. Please hurry up!
This will be the longest 21 days in my life. I have aged 40 years since the past four.
St Lucians must understand that King has never say a word of truth since he became pm. so the 21 days will be in March next year
If mr king loves this country He needs to do what is right.
The fabric of our society has fast deterioted and it seems as though there is no end in sight.
As if they don't care,
We have a vast amount of young people who will be graduating and will be coming to the workforce.
Now at the pace st lucia is under his leadership.
I beg the question to our business community as well as the media and newspapers to give some questions and answers to this urgent appeal
and Should'nt this prime minister call election sooner than later.

Well now that we have gotten a hint,
We need the media and newspapers to take the lead and tell us of the Stevenson goverment and their stewardship whether st lucians can hire them for another five years.
What has they accomplish the last Four Years Promises made,Kept and broken. Has the country fare better under this present goverment
What is the state of the st lucian population, Then after these make a wise choice for the future of our country around the caribbean and the world.
I am afraid St Lucians that no government in the world, no matter how qualified it's members, will be able to combat the unemployment and poverty afflicting this island.Some of you blame the SLP and the UWP, but we the citizens should really be blaming ourselves.
See,we St Lucians cannot afford to breed like rabbits, and expect the government(whether SLP or UWP)to provide jobs for everyone.It simply just can't happen!!!!
It is perfectly logical; if your birth rate is very high , then the end result is high unemployment and poverty, especially if the country has no natural resources other than its people.
The strange thing in St Lucia is that we have come to accept our high birth rate as a normal fact of life.THAT SHOULD NOT BE!It is not normal for a 20 year old to have 4 children.We need to aim for a lower birth rate.Only after this is done can we expect any real progress in this country.
Are you people aware that in some parts of the world schools are actually being closed down since there are no children to fill these schools? Yet in St Lucia each year the governments(SLP and UWP) have to spend millions of dollars building new schools to keep up with the rapidly growing population.Couldn't that money be spent on something else?
Before anyone accuses me of not wanting government to build schools to educate St Lucians,that is certainly not my point. I will have you know that education is very, very important to me.What I do not like however is the casual approach St Lucians have to producing babies.
The stupid Roman Catholic church that is only interested in getting members to make more hungry and half-educated catholics like rabbits, is partly to blame.
Quite correctly, if your birthrate far out-paces your death rate, which is a good thing reflecting may be better health conditions, you have to have resources to employ those people coming out by the women who are daily being knocked up by the unemployed boys with little else to do but sell drugs.
With that difficult but painful truth however, the government of the day still has to put more resources in education so that people will CREATE, AND NOT ONLY JUST try to find work. That is what intelligent governments do.
Those imbeciles that is the UWP can only think of committing white collar crime rather than curbing crime.
Neither the SLP which boasts of the best brains in the country, nor the country-bookie lawyer farmer Compton and the morons he has left us have a clue to helping us regarding the growing population and the growing unemployment trend.
I do not even think that either party has even seen this important link between these two issues that you are throwing out there.
You are NOT saying do not build schools. I don't believe this.
What I think you have not said very clearly is that with a smaller population AND WITH ENLIGHTENED MPs we would have been spending more money on TRAINING for careers and future job skills, rather than producing education machines. With those, the children come in as sheep and exit the production lines as goats.
Even today, even someone who went through our training college has no clue about how to fix this problem. He gave us 'free secondary school education' they say. Children in George Charles Sec still come in as sheep and leave as goats.
The UWP idiots just made things worse. We have 40 percent and growing poverty and a 25% rate unemployment.
Taiwan is providing the money that is being distributed to make more idiots vote for put more of our idiots into parliament.
Thanks Taiwan for developing St. Lucia into a country teeming of idiots.
That government is not taking any large amount of our young for skills training in Taiwan. Our JailBird foreign minister is showing his US JAILBIRD skills.
We need to stop this maypris and think of what is right for the future of our country.
Even though the economy around the world are not doing well.
Goverment has a duly responsibilty to find ways to work with the business community and put mechanism in place for its citizens.
Therefore Leadership matters, and in this challenging world, with globalization, Education, Environment,vision, one who can articulate a message, A leader who cannot be bought or sold, Now with these or the kind of leaders we elect can be a reflection of who we are as a nation.
I do hope my fellow st lucians will think and think it through and make a wise choice on the future of our country especially the future of our young people
God created the monkey. He was quite certain that He would have been disappointed in UWP politicians and their followers.
none of king horses or none of king's men will be able to put humpty dumpty together again. I not voting king
By their fruits you shall know them... these are not my words but those of Christ... about from "wax apple' name me the fruits that uwp bore..ok I will name them... Daher building, Herranowa building, Bsywalk mall,Asphalt and Mining, high airport tax, deplorable roads, high gas prices,huge salary for dayfare Hepple, Rufus condo, a dead sir John, a maginalized Janine,no jazz in Marchand,transfer of Terrance and police chief, police shootings, an "angel" who is earning millions by being a hack, buy out of the media..... to be continued...
Ste Licie fin ni....and not to mention the patients who die because they can't afford to pay for the dialysis treatment...A good thing the chinese give us a goo "mad house" at least those of us who lose our head will at least be in a 'state of the art mental facility"
Hello pre-occupied high birth rate bloggers. What planet are you people on. India has been able to advance on the world stage because of its high birth rate. They have the higest number of billonaries in the world. And the largest growing middle class as well. China has a hight birth rate....their dominance in the world does not need explaining. We only have 160,000 people, wake up that is nothing. The problem is our politicians who lask vision. To educate and house and create jobs for a small population is not mind blowing problem.
Don't know who you are trying to be condescending to by using the term "high birth rate bloggers." Mentioning India and China in an attempt to refute my earlier claim is pretty laughable!
Several respected international organizations have recognized the strong correlation between high birth rates and poverty, and by extension unemployment.If you choose to ignore it, then it is your choice to remain blissfully uninformed.
Both India and China have large amounts of natural resources to support their large populations.St Lucia doesn't. India has vast deposits of bauxite,iron, copper etc, whilst China has coal,petroleum,lead uranium etc.
Besides, China only started to catch up economically after tight restrictions on family size were imposed. Remember the one child per family policy in China?
India, despite it's so called "wealth", still has the largest number of people living below the poverty line in the world ;380 million! Still, despite its supposed wealth, more than 30% of India's population live below the poverty line.
In an attempt to refute my claim, you have chosen to mention China and India. What about sub-saharan Africa? Sub-saharan Africa provides a whole list of countries to substantiate my claim.Europe, with its relatively low birth rate and low poverty also can be used to give credence to my claim.Of course I could go on and on with more evidence to support my claim, but time does not permit me to do so.
Please do some research and get back here after you have done so!
India and China did not make progress as newly industrialized economies (NIEs) BECAUSE OF HIGH BIRTH RATES but in spite of their high birth rates.
They are making it because they have enclaves or areas of highly educated people with HIGH-TECH knowledge and education.
Juke Bois, Chief Advisor to the UWP government and a thousands of other idiots outside of government, plue our idiotic PM himself ridiculed the idea of the RISE TECHNICAL TRAINING INITIATIVE. Our Prime Imbecile and lame-brained PM again ridiculed people who had gained PhDs. Goes to show.
We can NEVER ever make it to the developed world with such complete idiots, even on the Opposition benches in parliament. Such country-bookies are fit for rum shops only.
Which firm overseas will set up R&D subsidiaries in St. Lucia? None! We have too large a population of idiots starting from the top to the bottom!
But such firms are going to China and India. They are making use of some very highly educated and very intelligent people there.
In China, children are scoring higher on Math exams than Americans. Indians who used to work in Silicon Valley in California are going back to India to set up businesses there. India has schools that are on the level with even the USA's MIT.
What do we have as a population? People who vote for idiots like themselves into public office for some rum and chicken legs paid with aide money from Taiwan.
Taiwan a technological powerhouse gives us the sizzle and but keeps the steak. At the end of the day, the majority of St. Lucians will still remain poor idiots. The smarter ones will survive, leave and never come back.
The blogger is right. St. Lucia is idiot country.
How can anyone listen to Stephenson King and take him seriously. I often wonder how the supporters in the crowd can cheer at the garbage and moronic things this foolish man says. Can people really be that mindless? Does King even take himself seriously? How does he sleep at night knowing that everyone else thinks he is a moron and he probably is. I want to fast forward to a day when these current members of the UWP are a distant memory.
Make it on carnival day orangutans.
Can the Prime Minister's 2011 election announcement be trusted; another King size lie?

St.Lucians are suffering from what could be called "The Compton Syndrom".
Until St.Lucians find another John Compton to coronate, they will never be totally satisfy with the men or women who succeed him. So be prepared to have a new Prime Minister every 5 years; or, until John Compton return (LOL).
St. Lucians need an education in civics. It's a shame that they love foreigners above their own. They make them gods having placenames all over the place bearing his name. Yet, on the other hand the deeply hate St. Lucians who have gone overseas to improve themselves. They only want money and barrels from them so that they can vote real morons into government.
I would personally dissuade anyone from sending anything from overseas to any relative who supports the UWP. It is time to lift the Compton curse.
what maron talk about compton's curst, it is people like you that will cause the labour party to lose this election. If you have nothing of substance to say keep your mouth shut.
Some individuals here have the nasty habit of trying to make fun of other people's suggestions though they themselves have little to offer in terms of ideas and meaningful discussion.
To the individual who attempted to ridicule me by calling me a "high birth rate blogger", I have already provided you with evidence to substantiate my claim.Now it is your turn to back-up your claim.I am still awaiting your response.Where have you disappeared to?
OK! OK! Alright! Alright! The blogger was wrong you know. It is Compton's blessings. Plural. A drug baron in cabinet. A US jailbird as foreign minister. A semi-literate creating contracts to benefit relatives. A doctor as minister selling patient's private medical records. A deputy speaker who runs away from the police after traffic accident and the DPP says that the files cannot be found. An MP who lies under oath before the Appeals Court of the OECS. An MP who under invoices, takes the government to court and has the customer officer who discovered it be removed.
An Attorney General who is supposed to uphold the law, is saying that politics is for bad boys.
God's richest blessings on St. Lucia! Enjoy.
Try as I may to give King the benefit of the doubt,he inevetible let's me down.
How stupid is it to tell people you are planning a suprise election. I forgave King when he humiliated our country by letting that Hatian pop singer jump over him.
Please King for the sake of our country please call the election.
King is the weakest indesisive incompetent individual to have ever held the office of PM, the sooner he goes the better.
Kenny all is forgiven.
I always ask but one prayer to God, a very short one.O Lord make my enemies ridiculous, stupid, ignorant idiots,retarded and he granted it.That's what all of you all are. Low-class low-level low-grade morons.You are all cursed. Amen
"judge a country by the goverment it elects" the persons we vote for say alot about us.. like it or not we deserve the mess we are in right now. We voted for persons whom we would not even want to teach our kids. We want our kids to attend the best schools, the best universities, we want the best doctors to treat us and what did we do...listen to Rick Wayne, Tim and Juke bois who the only time they may have seen inside a university was in their"nightmares" lol and listen to them put down education...you know what St lucia...nuff said... I eh care... like kenny, Mario and the others.. I can get a job out of St. Lucia.. thank God I know better..If you'll want put these morons back in power..choops
TAIWANESE aid is UNDERDEVELOPING ST. LUCIA FAST, FAST, FAST.
That country is giving money to a pack of idiots who feed more idiots with rum and chicken legs to vote to put them back into office.
Given the pace of underdevelopment created by these retards that make up this government, UWP is bad for St. Lucia.
TAIWAN is also bad for St. Lucia.
Taiwan is giving St. Lucia money that keeps the majority of St. Lucians poor for the country's vote at the UN.
We need smarter government than the idiots that TAIWAN is supporting with its money that is breaking our financial laws.
TAIWAN is now very much part of our under-development problem.
That country, Taiwan has become part of our national curse.
If your Labour Party wins the upcoming election, China will replace Taiwan; it's that simple.
And honestly, I think Taiwan has more to offer than China.
Agreed. But from where I sit, more of a curse than a cure for our problems.
When Taiwan will have transferred some of its technical knowledge to our young population groups, then you will have won the argument Anonymous 36.
Until then, just like Anonymous 35 has said up there, a cat is a puss, if SLP wins.
Which language do you prefer the prime ministers of St. Lucia to beg in? Is it Mandarin or Cantonese?
Oh yes. You've answered that already. It is Cantonese.
Yes. With Taiwanese money funding the re-election of the most corrupt and incompetent government in the English-speaking Caribbean, 'THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS'.
Better yet the uwp's have paved a road in the Blvd with a flambeau that will burn them up during election...yo fini,fini,fini! I am no psychic but I think that King and his men are getting the message...they may not call election soon because they know too well how sweet the yearly 1million dollars taste. Guy needs to buy more apple farms in Canada; Frederick needs to get more houses and land including a contract worth millions from another investor to mine oil in St. Lucia; Rufus need to get more casinos inland for his gambling problem including renting another exquisite place possibly at the Landings hotel for additional staff; Mondesir, Arsene, the AG and others are possibly still looking for another medical school to house them in the remaining rooms at the Wellness Centre for hefty fee; Guy Mayers is made to salivate at another opportunity to destroy our marginalized youth and calling it effective crime prevention; Ezekiel simply can't have King calling elections because he has nothing to show except some wax apple trees and fresh water ponds that have yet to produce shrimps and fish. And yes, we can't forget King-he is still waiting for the call from the real leaders of the party--Rufus and Frederick--until then we can hold the flambeau up until it's ready to burn them up at the polls.
I agree with writer#37 - and I will add this: if the Taiwanese really had St Lucia's interest at heart, they would have focused on education from the beginning. With the right training, our island could become the petit 'Taiwan of the Caribbean' and VOILA!, we would have valuable exports, jobs, wealth, progress, less poverty and crime, etc. ALL our nation's problems could be cured by PROPER education.
With the establishment of our own UWI campus, coupled with island-wide first-class education, and by using the success-examples of our Nobel Laureates as well as the positive-image examples of all our other brilliant St Lucians, within five years St Lucia WOULD transform itself into an amazing place.
Here's some advice for Prudent's party: FOCUS ON EDUCATION, EDUCATION, and more EDUCATION, and if you win, make sure you keep your promises.
NO!!! I am not a supporter of his party - so far, they don't impress me one bit! However, St Lucia MUST RID ITSELF of the other two parties as soon as possible - it's our ONLY hope.
ST LUCIA VOTERS, this DECISION/POWER is in YOUR hands; use it carefully and wisely, otherwise you will regret every moment of the next five years, or even longer.
#40, just as you have shown, St. Lucian voters are not sophisticated enough to vote for any other parties than the UWP and SLP. Prudent's party has the right mix of ideas and skills, but such ideas can not attract St. Lucians.
Mentally, St. Lucians are not ready. Therefore, they will get the government that their mental abilities and limits are capable of understanding. That is the government unfortunately they deserve.
I am very sorry for those whose mental abilities will not allow them to learn any more than the basics to form Chastenet's army of maids and cooks. They will have to remain behind and continue voting in vain for betterment under a UWP that cares very little for education and more for putting money into the pockets of ministers. The 'bad boys' have spoken. It is the new law. The UWP's AG has said it quite plainly. The pattern is very clear right now for those who have above average intelligence.
blogger It seems as though you are trying to fit in the LPM party.
Lets look at the history of third party, George odlum tried it, and he wasmost popular in st lucia also had lots of potfolio in goverment and didn't made it.
Now this is a challenging world and what Experience do you have to lead st lucia in this quagmire cause by the uwp.
my fellow st lucians think this through.
Can you please make up some screen names or something. All this anonymous 42 -1000 is quite annoying. I really don't have the time or energy to keep going back and count who is 30, 31 ...etc. With that said carry on with the discussion
In terms of the modernization and development of our country, the two major parties have failed miserably.
We are perfectly sure now, that in retrospect, and with so many years of COMPTON'a rule, his TAIWAN model of development failed. It failed. And TAIWAN continues to fail St. Lucia.
It failed because it NEVER addressed the basic needs of modernity and of creating a modern country.
Look around you, commodity-based and dependent economies are languishing with high unemployment and poverty. Is St. Lucia any different after the TAIWANESE experiments ... once under Compton and now under this bunch of idiots?
35 years of Taiwanese influence. What we have to show for it? Nothing. Taiwan is a modern country with a highly technically-skilled population.
Look at St. Lucia in contrast. We are creating dummies by the minute with our celebrated talk show progrommes and hosts. No technical skills. Just more idiots like the hosts.
SLP chose Mainland China. Again, we have failure there too. But this is over a much SHORTER period of time. Ten years.
Some countries have been able to transform their economies over a 10-year period. Why did SLP fail? Why did it fail to even begin to tackle the fundamental changes required for sustainable development in St. Lucia?
Simple answer: SLP does not have the ideas. SLP does not have the skills. SLP does not have the outlook. SLP does not have a national goal. SLP does not have a focus except to become the next government.
Today, we are back with the TAIWANESE. This time we are in even graver danger than before. Not only is there obvious and gross incompetence, but we have rogues, real stinking rogues in government in government.
We have jailbirds, thieves, drug lords, the uneducated, and the semi-literates.
They have declared war on the population saying that they are 'bad boys' without a moral compass.
So St. Lucians are only being used by the TAIWANESE. Political prostitutes they have made us out to be.
The dolts in government are happy to have another lot of nincompoops as talk show host dumbing-down the population, Juke Bois, Rick, Tim and so on, to get them to accept another round of rum and chicken legs to vote this gang of misfit UWPs back into office.
The biggest tragedy in our world these days - INTERNATIONALLY - is that rulers everywhere do NOT want their voters to be educated because politicians know very well that as soon as people become wise they automatically DUMP all their rotten dictator and dictator-like politicians. Remember this - politics is all about fooling the masses, because the less educated they can keep the masses the easier it is to control them. Furthermore, politicians have even been able to fool people into believing that being educated is both UNNECESSARY and STUPID -
sounds familiar to anyone?
The other problem with the Taiwanese is that in their own country they have a dark-skinned indigenous population and see us St Lucians similarly. In other words, they see us as a primitive dark-skinned people who need to be patronized and carefully kept in place.
In this self-serving racist-like mindset, the Taiwanese only want to manufacture and export things to the 'undeveloped' world; thus, they need them/us to REMAIN PERMANENTLY UNDEVELOPED; and China thinks the same way too.
Like the old colonialists, they only WANT TO USE US for anything they can get out of us, especially our reliable votes in the UN.
TAIWAN and the UWP political prostitutes, both of them are bad for St. Lucia. Together, St. Lucia is in deep doo-dou.
St. Lucia has failed at this stage (it was never so bad before) because ALL our politicians are liberals with the failed mendicancy mindset for the masses and the elitest mindset for themselves.
Because of the liberal ideology propagandized on African American and African Caribbean people we do not have a clue of how to run a country or of what to expect from a government or the importance of fundamentals like work ethic, respect for private property or the rule of law.
99% of our people accept liberal ideology even if hat many do not PRACTICE this failed way of life.
Because we have accepted this ideology because of the reach of the American cultural penetration plus the push by European liberal elites who tie grants to liberal policies ( abortion , homosexuality) we have lost respect for all the principles that once we were willing to follow.
The result is immoral politicians, even pure crooks in some cases who have not a clue and really have no intention of moving our people forward.
And forget about whether or not they are educated like the opposition used to boast in 1997. Part of the American liberal propangandization is the corruption of our youth when they get their degrees whether in American ,European or our own Universities which are all liberal. See the utter failure of the Obama Administration made up of 0ver 90% academics who are leading the western world into a new depression because of their failed polices which started with their freeness mentality from decades ago.
There is no hope guys but the problem is as a friend of mine said "We like it so !:
If tomorrow someone arose in our midst with the answers we would chase them off the island because he would have to have conservative values.
Luckily, if the bottom drops off after this election, it is a good thing. I have options. I en voting for no vagabond or illiterate. I will take their money though. They have never worked for it.
Though I’ve heard this anti- liberal argument before, I’m not too sure this is the real reason the Western/American world is in such a mess. Nevertheless, copying the American way of life is definitely the major source of St Lucia’s troubles, and following the US example will take us all the way down with them.
Throughout history, empires have always fallen, but this falling process never happens overnight. Instead, it usually takes many, many years along with the gradual erosion of all their moral values.
The belief system that has taken over Western thinking is called ‘utilitarianism’ – a belief system that predominantly promotes SELFISHNESS. To counter the harmful effects of this selfish way of living, political ideas like Socialism and Communism were created. Add to that a couple World Wars in the 20th Century, the rise of greedy capitalism, and the falling off of blind belief in religious dogma, most people today find it difficult to hold on to any deep values; consequently most of them end up living essentially amoral or immoral lives (blogger # 49, I understand that’s what you call liberal values).
Via television, movies, entertainment, and all media, ALL day long all of us are fed empty meaningless trash until we crave it ourselves, like a drug addict. Unless each one of us finds something noble and worthwhile to believe in, we end up leading aimless lives. The same thing happens to countries. In St Lucia's case, it appears that St Lucians desperately needs something worthy to believe in again: the ugly negativity of our politics cannot fulfill that urgent need; rather, our nasty politics push us steadily towards a state of total hopelessness. I see that negative mindset reflected in the many cynical blogs I read everyday in St Lucia’s newspapers.
There are petty talk and LPM leader was a flambeau all the years under john compton with all due respect to him and his family.
Where was him all, and his invovlement in the affairs of st lucia,
Now he has answers to our problem,
We have Mr King who was appointed and not elected, where he had an opportunity to better himself, so with little education, no vision, no bols, plus he is surrounded by other misfits like him who are con artist, and the list goes on
He has fail himself and st lucians at large.
Then now we have the former prime minister Mr Anthony,
Whatever had happen in 2006 surely was a poor choice for st lucians, and it had pain me that this was not the time for this
However among the three top candidates and whatever mistake was done, I would put my vote on Mr Anthony to be the next leader to lead st lucia,
Inspite of all the rumblings of rick wayne and others againts Mr Anthony, He is still the best among the three, and my fellow st lucians It is high time to wake up of our sleep.
Do not let these Media politics, Newspapers, Rick wayne and others fool us nor politians with their rum and chicken.
There is to much at stake and this world is now a very challenge world,
We cannot take nothing for granted,
We cannot afford another five years like this one, Nor can we send children to do adult jobs in this global world.
We need adults, and the best adult among the three is Mr Anthony.
Don't let anyone make us believe otherwise, Because the future of fair helen is at stake.
The days of juke bois and others, who continue to insunuate Propaganda and ignorance among the people, should be over.
Now over the years lots of st lucian have had the priviledge to traveled overseas and Educate themselves in various field of work.
They are now back home and can use these talent to have different programs and talk shows which should be on Education.
If they should come together and not join the already misfits we have there, Surely fair helen would be better and the likes of juke bois and others would faint in ObLIVION {HISTORY]
Our people will get smarter, Wouldn't be bought for rum and chicken, Would stop listening to gabbage from juke bois and so forth.
It is time for meaningful conversation on the future of fair helen.

If Mr. Barrow and Mr. Compton, the first from Barbados with his Singapore Model, and the other with the Taiwan Model, Mr. Barrow would still be able to repeat, as he done once before to Mr. Compton, that Compton knows nothing about economics. Today of course, Barbados' high ranking on the Human Development Index compiled by the UN is all the proof that you need.
Jamaicans have the Singaporean model in their cross hairs. Needless to say, St. Lucia is eating dirt even after its nearly 40-year history of strong diplomatic relations with Taiwan. We are still no where near becoming a developed country. We have even regressed.
The Taiwan Model, riddled with a culture of corruption as a way of doing business, and discrimination of people of darker hue, is what St. Lucia has embraced, people.
That close association with Taiwan is a continued source of our underdevelopment. Taiwan is a developed country.
Today, St. Lucia is racing to the bottom with a gang of vagabonds in government, fighting for Haiti's place in this hemisphere.
Doctor Anthony, may be the best of the three in that writer's opinion, but his 10 years only gave us capital projects, with cost overruns and with several financial scandals to boot
Only grudgingly can we admit that was a lot better a place than where we are now. But how pricey? Rochamel and NCA are unforgettable.
St. Lucia is not ready to get rid of its huge unemployment rate, nor its scale of poverty. The necessary leadership to address these is not here yet.
BLOG 50 GREAT!
Blogs 51-54 what a load of rubbish talk.
We talk how we want or whatever we want. Yet, the evidence is plain to see for those not high on drugs, that the last group of politicians with any ability to think clearly about the welfare of the country were thrown out of office.
Give me arrogance everyday before incompetence. I am not that stupid.
DUH!!!!!!!!!
St. Lucia is idiot country!
DUH AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!
The dunderheads above just prove it. St. Lucia is idiot country.
What we really need good citizens is a silver bullet to solve our problems. Which one of you have a gun that can fire a silver bullet?
Critics and preachers are in abundance in St.Lucia. What we need good citizens are people that genuinely want do something to help the situation... by making a useful contribution to help bring about beneficial changes to our people.
Preaching will not change things nor will blaming others, we owe much to each other, we are each equally responsible for the development of our country. It should not be left to just a small group of willing people to make the effort, we are all in this together it is our country also.
The Government will do all it can to create a climate that is condusive to economic growth to help job creation etc,etc, but we cannot expect the government to do everything, let us be fair about this good citizens... Now tell me how can we make life better for the needy? What can we do to make a positive contribution..etc, etc..I am with you all the way... let us be positive, and set party politics aside and embrace the mantra..St.Lucia first before political party.. thank you, we have made a start.... love all
The above statement was made by "The Son of Castries" by name literally.
Remember our future is in our hands so watch where you put that cross of your please. Do not let your political bias ruin your future, do the right thing for St. Lucia, vote accordingly..... St. Lucia FIRST !! OK
My experience has thought me that so called educated people are who destroying our country. Maybe we should give idiots a chance
King may as well enjoy the little game he is playing because it is likely to be his last hurrah. I have been peregrinating the highways and byways, the nooks and the crannies of this country, trying to get some sense of how people feel about the two main parties, and it seems clear to me that the SLP enjoys a lead in the popular vote. If King would only hear what people are saying he would not be so cavalier about calling the elections.
Stephenson King pack your bags and go. Stephenson King pack your bags and go. I fear for the direction the country is taking under you misrule. Your buddy Richard Frederick does cause me some discomfort, some disquiet. You and your gang of dishonourable men can put on your tuxedos (no pun intended) and have your last supper. You brought us change indeed!!! The paltry sum of thirty pieces of silver is all the change we got. I feel betrayed in what you and your gang (the super eight and whoever else) have put us through. Please, please pack your bags and go. Call the elections quickly. Release us for Chrissakes from the misery that you have put us through these last few years. Please pack your bags and go!!!
