Comments on: Have St Lucians heard the last of the Suzie d’Auvergne Report? https://stluciastar.com/have-st-lucians-heard-the-last-of-the-suzie-dauvergne-report/ Bringing the Truth to Light Sat, 05 Sep 2015 19:40:58 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: Finbar Sonny-Richards https://stluciastar.com/have-st-lucians-heard-the-last-of-the-suzie-dauvergne-report/#comment-95323 Sat, 05 Sep 2015 19:40:58 +0000 https://stluciastar.com/?p=46025#comment-95323 Excellent report- points of interest in the efforts made by the Commission(CRC) particularly its recommendations “to strengthen the accountability of public institutions” should be noted.
I also note the phrase used by the PM “otiose” which rhymes with “grandiose” highlighting the precise mature of the problems St Lucian’s face today as a consequence of an administration operating “otiose-ly”.
In 2004-6 the British Government made a decision ‘to go to war on Iraq’ regardless of strong opposition by the electorate to wage war Iraq. A million people marched to object, yet the government at the time imposed an illegal conflict on the basis of a direct threat on the Crown.
Britain as a result of its constitutional breach and several other parts of Europe are still suffering from the effects of that decision even today millions of economic migrants and asylums seekers from north Africa, still chose to risk their lives in search of a resolve to an alternative existence that is trouble free and peaceful.
In retrospect would a change in the written (St Lucian) constitution modelled on the US form of government be the answer to avoid future economic crisis and allow St Lucian’s and people from other parts of the Caribbean who followed their lead to have free/open access to Britain and the US respectively.
