Micoud South MP Allen Chastanet stated that he was ‘humbled and deeply grateful’ to everyone who supported his continuation as leader of the United Workers Party (UWP), which he called ‘our great party’.
“Your support has given me the opportunity to continue working to bring about positive change for our country,” the former Prime Minister wrote on Facebook.
And he declared that he would not take the privilege lightly.
The UWP Unanimously endorsed Chastanet at its Conference of Delegates on Sunday.
Chastanet was unopposed, as were the other nominees for the National Executive.
The full slate was:

We don’t want u chastanet. Imagine we need to inject new blood into the party and it’s the same old band wagon. I’ll see to it by any means necessary that you chastanet will not be prime minister.
Good choice! I think he’s the most suitable and qualified man to continue leading the party at the moment. He’s not perfect, but he is a decisive and effective leader. Competent and intelligent. A man who can represent us on the World stage, without leaving us feeling constantly embarrassed. Good luck Mr. former P.M. Forward – Stronger and Better!
Did I just read that the recycling plant was reopened? Wow. We act like there is no one else in Saint Lucia who can contest a seat successfully so we have to reelect the same persons previously accused of corruption. What a shame for us as a people and country. This applies to both political parties. By our actions, we legitimize corruption as an acceptable way of life in Saint Lucia. But we can make a difference by voting for a third political party or staying away from the polls as a way of showing our displeasure with the status quo, with what now passes as normal behavior of politicians in this country. Say no to corruption – vote the Green Party or don’t vote at all.
@The Cabal very good comment. It’s so disappointing to see the older generation stuck in the red and yellow nonsense that they can’t see these people are stale. We need younger persons with fresh, creative and successful ideas. Both parties need a detox!!
@Angel you full ……shh…Oh feeling “constantly embarrassed'” you full of shhhh.
@ The Most Deplorable Lucian Downgrade….Par for the course – you stay rolling in the dirt. Hope the compensation is worth it.
Lmfao just pathetic but his supporters are even more laughable. That Chasguy version of UWP can’t win an election, oppostion for another 5 years.
I have said it and will continue to say it, once Chastanet, Guy and Dominic are at the forefront the party we are bound to lost the next election. Dominic and Guy are rejected politician. They are the cause of we loosing the last election, we don’t want them again.
@Angrel Lucifer no I don’t get a stipend like you its purely a ” Red Labor of Love” and I will roll in the red dirt continuously, I see no reason to switch.
But noone is talking about the deputy leader, what a shame.
May I spell your name if you don’t understand “All end Chase a net” please stay home now.SPARKPLUG
