Another of Prime Minister Philip J Pierre’s Broken Promises Exposed: The Truth Behind Income Support

During the 2021 Election campaign, Prime Minister Philip J Pierre made a bold promise to the people of this nation: $1500 income support for all Saint Lucians. However, as time unfolds, it has become evident that this promise was nothing more than a political ploy, a hollow attempt to sway the electorate without any real intention of follow-through.

Pierre’s failure to deliver on his promise is not only a betrayal of the trust bestowed upon him by the Saint Lucian people but also a stark reminder of the dangers of political deception. While Pierre claimed he would provide $1500 income support to all Saint Lucians, the reality is far from it. Instead, only 5000 Saint Lucians have received any form of income support under his leadership.

Comparing Pierre’s actions to those of the former Allen Chastanet-led UWP government only serves to highlight the magnitude of his failure. Under Chastanet’s administration, over 17,000 Saint Lucians received income support, a figure significantly higher than what Pierre has managed to achieve.

The disparity between Pierre’s promises and his actions speaks volumes about his leadership style and his disregard for the well-being of the people he swore to serve. By making grandiose pledges with no intention of fulfilling them, Pierre has demonstrated a blatant lack of integrity and accountability.

Furthermore, Pierre’s failure to provide adequate income support has real-life consequences for the people of Saint Lucia. Many families are struggling to make ends meet, facing financial uncertainty and hardship exacerbated by the ongoing economic challenges brought about by the global pandemic. Pierre’s broken promise only adds insult to injury, leaving countless Saint Lucians feeling abandoned and betrayed by their own government. #PierreEhCare#SaveOurSaintLucia#PuttingYouWorse#PeoplePower
