Some of you think what the so called founding fathers drafted 30 plus years ago is written on stone tables and how dare you question it’s act. Some of us are complaining about the lack of transparency of the powers of the prime minister, the lack of check and balances and they are the same one stating if it’s not broken why fix it ( they know themselves). When you look at life in St Lucia today do you really think everyone is enjoying the provisions of the constitution ?? As far as I am concern every democratic drafted constitution should be revised, revisited, retooled and amended if necessary every 30 to 40 years to curtailed to the needs of its citizen as socio economic and growing pains of that country evolves.

Longer than I have for sure. So why are you surprised, if you are, that the essentials were not provided in what passes for analysis and debate in the rouse of dis-assembly. There is a pretense of democracy in St Lucia, you know that. And let’s face it, the only aspect of democracy that is allowed any chance of working is the idea of adult suffrage. I man one vote, and even that malfunctions as the process is subverted continuously by the buying of votes for the mere price of chicken and rum and the promise of school books for the “malaway” conveniently so called. No to even mention the gerrymandering with the boundries as convenient to sitting governments. So Rick stop the pissing in your own eye.
