Vaughn Lewis Wife better behave herself. YOu see how Kenny appointed a foreigner to sack St Lucians of jobs in their own land? SLP is not right. It is unfair. I agree with King and I hope the other political parties in the country are going to be on watchful eye for Kenny.
Times have changed people. It seems the CCC was just another entity used to "give jobs". If you really deserved the job you had there at the CCC then show your talent and get hired elsewhere....or start your own show. Stop feeling sorry for yourself...didn't you see the bullet coming? I SAW IT FROM A MILE AWAY.
Why, absolutely. When King was in government, he did the same thing. I fully agree with Lewis. Fire all UWP and employ SLP so that SLP's mandate will be carried on and not sabotage by any UWP hacks...toofay!!
Said Richard Frederick, "everyone deserves a fair shake"...Robby Skeete hadn't deserved a fair shake when you, Richard Frederick, took over his Castries Market place restaurant and handed it over to your equally questionable friend, JJ? Only now you see everyone deserves a fair shake....
Boy victimization will never finish. As soon as SLP lose another election and find themselves back in opposition a new round of victimization will begin. This is St Lucia where politicians fart from both sides of their arse!
lady, you know how many people have loans here, can't find a job and the bank calling? Alot of people trying to send their kids to school too sir. everyone has a story
I agree with the CC. it's time to put a stop to all that blatant corruption of people getting overpaid for doing nothing and getting away with it only because they are party hacks. They are are many unemployed people who have loans too.
This is this heartening to fire people because you don;t like Richard or UWP. These people have the right to be able to work in their country and feed themselves. The same way that Ma Vaughn can come to St Lucia and find employment, those born there have that right too.
I notice we are missing the issue at hand. Should centeral government continue to bankroll the CCC for their shabby services or at lease breakeven on their opperations?
I'm not really sure what work has to be done under some of these contracts, but to me it seems like some of these people were being paid a lot of money! I would not have guessed they made so much money, and the place looks a mess! These are hard times though and I hate to see people losing their jobs, but based on the info in this article, it seems like some things needed to be changed.
I don't care if you support UWP, SLP, LPM or no party at all. When a St Lucian is fired or lose a job this should be cause for concern. We are not talking about people froma distant country we are talking about St Lucians for christ sake.
Screw your colours and party affiliations. Choops!
As some said previously, and I repeat..."lady, clean up the mess", and sanitize the place. Do have in hand a power washer, lots of bleach and a steel brush, for good measure...we need the stench of Richard Frederick to be removed once and for all.
Why, can't Richard Frederick serviced their loans from his ill-gotten monies?
This is sad and disgusting. A team of moonlighters, hardcore SLP supporters/Councillors who were selected to run the affairs of the city of Castries, are victimizing so many citizens in one go. I doubt they have on iota of idea of how to run a municipality. By the way why was Emma representing us at the Saskachewan meeting on local government and not the mayor or one of the Councillor from the CCC?
There is no doubt that the city and other areas must be kept clean. I think that the situation could have been handled a lot better. There were irregularities yes I agree but it is not the workers who wrote the contracts. Why not redo the contracts and maximize the use of these persons to clean up. There are several community sporting fields in poor condition why not re-assign those persons to take care of these fields. Give the youth somewhere to play and be productive. We too quick to lay blame and make others look bad. Take a step forward and is 2 steps backward.
We don't know for sure if there were any irregularities in the contracts. The councillors said so wothout showing evidence to the effect. I can tell you the likes of John Husbands..... can easily FIND irregularites where there is none. Their sole motive is to starve and disgrave the imagine or perceived political enemy. We can understand why there's so much hatred in sweet Saint Lucia. The Councellors are now contributing to the hatred!

Sans honte! You all let Compton from AN ISLET, an islet, we, come here and give you all PHONY independence.
That SAME FOREIGNER, put another as GG.
That same foreigner, join CARICOM and all the freedom of movement crap.
But now you want to call a woman married to a St. Lucian who can easily get or already has St. Lucian citizenship a foreigner.
Lewis brought her here,eache gas! Sacway met couyon!
"But now you want to call a woman married to a St. Lucian who can easily get or already has St. Lucian citizenship a foreigner." --------------------------------------------------------------- That is exactly how the Bajans are treating the wife of former Prime Minister Thompson. She is a St.Lucian of political royalty and is getting a hard time in Barbados eventhough she is the wife of the former Prime Minister.
Ugly Vaughn trophy wife is firing you all ass ah la enrouge style.You all a see nothing yet that's just the tip fo the iceberg.Bitter bitter days ahead day ban makak.
And so above, your contribution to this discourse is maypwis and name calling...I do not find her to be ugly. She is highly intelligent and educated - alas, attributes I CANNOT say you possess, otherwise you would have contributed something of significance rather than the gutter name calling - something you are quite comfortable with.
Never heard, in my entire life, a receptionist or a phone answerer being paid SO MUCH MONEY...I actually have asked others (since I am away), have they ever heard of a reception being paid that kind of $ and the answer is a resounding NO. What qualifies her for that pay?
If that was not a quid pro quo thing, pray, what is?
I'm not sure they mentioned how much the receptionist was making, but one of the contractors was making over $11,000 a fortnight! I'm not sure exactly what his work involved, but that sounds like an exorbitant sum to me. These are just the people we know about in the CCC, imagine the others we know nothing about. No wonder there's no money to do anything worthwhile.
I have read all the comments above: not one constructive comment on HOW the CCC situation should be resolved. not one constructive comment on WHAT the CCC could have done to prevent the firing of these people.
Just a lot of hot air on politics!! From reading the article and the comments, unfortunately, I am unable to form an honest and constructive opinion.
In short - there is no story here. At least, not for me.
And history repeats it's self, AGAIN!! Come on people, by now you all should know how this country operates. SLP gets into office...first things first... sack all the UWP loyalist and replace them with SLP loyalist. After all, SLP has to keep promises made to those who did their dirty work to help get them re-elected. When UWP gets back in power...they do the same...Hell YA! Can't you see the cycle?!...Will it ever end!! Am.. NUH UH!!
I respect your opinion, above, but I have a different view point. SLP has to put people in place to carry out their mandate and not sabotage it; likewise UWP...so I tend to agree that those UWP's in key positions has to be removed to make way for SLP's who has or share the same objective as outlined in their manifesto. And, of course, this goes to the UWP too.
June 12, 2012, 9:35AM...Why, you could not have said it any better...cremate EVERYTHING in that office - for crying out loud.
Richard Frederick and his co-cohorts are dangerous, they are like plutonium...hence, cremating them, ONCE AND FOR ALL, never to raise their ugly, dangerous and diseased head again.
What on earth are these two men (Frederick and King) doing spewing lies and untruths about the Government. It was a total embarrassment to hear the evidence against lying King and quarrelsome Frederick.
The UWPees must be embarrassed at these two seeming junkies who are posing as the leaders of the UWP. Compton must be turning in his grave.
Oh, above, didnt you know?...those two; Frederick and King, men bet, men pwell; just that one is educated and using his unfortunate education viciously and maliciously, while the one, King, a dolt, is a category 5 moron, don't know his head from his arse.
Dear Lord, I feel sorry for King...put a hand. Someone, anyone from the UWP, oust this man from the party.
John Compton (not any better himself), still, must be turning in his grave, but then again, this is his legacy; the likes of Richard Fredericks and Stephenson king.
Frederick has no education. He was an ordinary police officer who was very crooked at that time, then he took some courses, and went to study law. That dosen't make him any educated person. He just made a flux.
Why isnt this wrinkled face dinosaur on retirement? Are you telling me that there are no young red soldiers to take up this post? I am disappointed with my government and am afraid that they may suffer the same fate as they did in 2006. Maybe worst. I am done with that.

Who ever told you that Kenny and Tony intended to be fair? What you are going to see is jobs for every person labelled SLP.

You thoroughly and completely disgust me.

MRS.LEWIS STAY ON TRACK
LET KING AND FREDRICK PAY BACK
THE MONEY
KING HAVE NO SAY HE IS ONLY BLOWING HOT AIR FREDRICK FULL OF BULL SHIT.
FIRE THE RATS SO THE CHEES CAN B EQUITABLE.
AND LET FREDICK PLAY WITH HIMSELF IN JAIL.
This is this heartening to fire people because you don;t like Richard or UWP. These people have the right to be able to work in their country and feed themselves. The same way that Ma Vaughn can come to St Lucia and find employment, those born there have that right too.

Well, all the SlP is doing is removing one gruop only to replace them with their own supporters later. Eitehr way they siutation is messed up.
I'm not really sure what work has to be done under some of these contracts, but to me it seems like some of these people were being paid a lot of money! I would not have guessed they made so much money, and the place looks a mess!

Fire their tails. UWP had sinecures for real jobs.
Fire their tails.
UWP got millions under the table from the Taiwanese. Let the drug baron bank roll their party hacks'
loans.
The UWP cabal under Fredericks, with King as the wooden dummy repeater, still has this job. So what do you think will happen.
Shoot your shate King! Shoot again King. Shoot!
Lady clean up. Lady, clean up the mess. That's what you've got to do. Clean up the UWP commess!
Sanitize the place. Burn up the corrupted seats place in a public bonfire. Corruption is contagious!
Clean up the nasties!
Anybody with even the name Rufus in government is suspect. That person is a possible nasty! Examine the horns!
King is blasted rich nuisance! Let the ill-gotten UWP gains pay for the loans of their party hacks!
I don't care if you support UWP, SLP, LPM or no party at all. When a St Lucian is fired or lose a job this should be cause for concern. We are not talking about people froma distant country we are talking about St Lucians for christ sake.
Screw your colours and party affiliations. Choops!
SLP has started its own illgotten gains.
As some said previously, and I repeat..."lady, clean up the mess", and sanitize the place. Do have in hand a power washer, lots of bleach and a steel brush, for good measure...we need the stench of Richard Frederick to be removed once and for all.

A damn disgrace for the new CCC!

Kenny knows he cannot send Dalson, or any one from the CCC for that matter.
Provincial matters in Canada is equivalent - to matters on par with the (State) meaning Government of Saint Lucia for your information.
Provincial matters handle billions of dollars, large cities like Toronto and millions of people - many times over the entire Caribbean.
This is not a quasi gather of local government or Councillors - meeting or conferencing on non issues.
I'am pretty sure she represented St.Lucia well. I await the report in the interest of accountability and transparency.
I don't care if you support UWP, SLP, LPM or no party at all. When a St Lucian is fired or lose a job this should be cause for concern. We are not talking about people froma distant country we are talking about St Lucians for christ sake.

This is what I voted for. END CORRUPTION. People getting paid for being party hack, I am seeing less corruption thus it’s a better day for me.
I have a lot of respect for Shirley Lewis. This lady knows what she is about and can do her Job well. She will do well with the CCC.
Last two bloggers - I, too, share the same view.
Never heard, in my entire life, a receptionist or a phone answerer being paid SO MUCH MONEY...I actually have asked others (since I am away), have they ever heard of a reception being paid that kind of $ and the answer is a resounding NO. What qualifies her for that pay?

Lady, clean up de place! Please!!!
Doh worry! Only the vermin are crying out! Next fumigate the place. You might get an infection after being so close to contamination and contaminants!
Burn their chairs too! These may be disease-ridden also!
Clean up! Clean up! Yes, you are beginning to do a mighty fine job!
Please wear masks and disposable gloves! You need to be protected! Put worn clothing in hermetically-sealed bags for the incinerator, too! Stay safe!

Go get them lady! Go for the jagular...puncture all veins.
Make them pay back the exhorbitant money they received as renumeratin. Highway robbery, if you ask me, in broad day light.
Frederick has no education. He was an ordinary police officer who was very crooked at that time, then he took some courses, and went to study law. That dosen't make him any educated person. He just made a flux.
