Well, Chas failed but PIP said he could do it no problem. Well PIP?
When fighting insurgencies, violent crime and war, two strategies are generally employed. The first is attrition, which aims to exhaust the opposition, to force him to give up his goals. In essence, wear him down, bit by bit. The second is annihilation, which aims to destroy the enemy power by the most direct and immediate means possible at whatever cost. I eh see “Generull Peep” employing any of these. Letting gunmen out on bail nullifies both strategies. So what is he doing? He is trying a little “ting” which can only spell more disaster for families.

We don’t hv serious people in our decisions making in st lucia. It’s costing us the lives of innocent people. Vfort is so small and y’all can’t surround that place and secure the area. Mr pm I hv a personal message: if you can’t protect us just say that and we will hv to protect ourselves. It’s that bad right now. I can’t own a fire arm and fellers hv that like sand. So if they decide to pull up at my door step just tell me honestly what I’m supposed to do?
The faithful witness is in heaven,he will make justice and not the ‘untrusty police failures’…

Come forward with information so you can feed it to certain ministers and God-knows who else? I did not say it. The minister himself confessed it in public on his own show, without being pressured or questioned by anyone. You are feeding people information that is provided to you. Show us how you are blocking these holes and preventing these transgressions and protecting your public sources and then the public will consider collaborating with you.
The Palistine war, oppression for 60 years and hamas must be labelled for oct 7th invasion. Propaganda at its best and we are trap in it here equally. People lives must pay the price for our legislation to take control and guidance. We’ll forever be fooled
