Vendors in the City of Castries continue to face victimization under this uncaring and insensitive SLP administration. Those who were relocated to the La Place Carenage carpark to facilitate the project were promised priority placement in the new Box Park project. However, these promises have been broken by Castries Central MP Richard Frederick. Instead of honoring their commitment, the vendors…
The continued victimization of police officers under this uncaring and vindictive SLP administration, led by Philip J. Pierre, is not just an attack on law enforcement, it is an attack on the very foundation of law and order in our country. First, they victimized the close protection officer of the Leader of the Opposition, Hon. Allen Chastanet, in a blatant…
It has been four long years since the Blanchard Community Centre in Micoud South was completed, yet its doors remain locked. This facility, built under the leadership of former Prime Minister Allen Chastanet, was meant to serve as a vital hub for the community—a space for meetings, events, and essential services. But instead of fulfilling its intended purpose, it stands…
As a concerned citizen of Saint Lucia, I am deeply troubled by the growing trend of political victimization under the current administration of Prime Minister Philip J. Pierre.

The ongoing neglect and apparent victimization of the people in Micoud South and Choiseul/Saltibus by the SLP government is deeply concerning. Despite the fact that these communities exercised their democratic right by voting for the UWP, they have faced punitive measures that starkly contrast with the principles of fair governance. The newly built Blanchard Community Center in Micoud South and…
It is utterly disheartening to observe partisan politicking taking precedence over the pressing needs of the victims of Hurricane Beryl. During a recent tour of the Soufriere Waterfront to assess the damage caused by the hurricane, Emma Hippolyte, the Parliamentary Representative for Soufriere Fond St. Jacques, was seen wearing a green cap adorned with the red star of the St.…
In case you haven’t heard, the Philip J. Pierre-led administration has awarded contracts to Fresh Start Construction to recommence the Talvern and Choc Housing Projects. These projects were halted when the administration assumed office in July 2021. Upon taking office three years ago, the Pierre administration immediately stopped two major housing projects initiated under the previous United Workers Party (UWP)…
