SALTIBUS EN ROUGE ON A SATURDAY - PART 1

The SCL has invented a new variant of itself and it’s called “Citizens for a better Saint Lucia” They have used that pseudonym to launch an atrocious, vicious and malicious attack on our beloved candidate; but they have succeeded in making us love him more.

He is an inspiration to the youth of Choiseul/Saltibus in whom they have placed all their trust. He has proven his worth and mettle across all situations.

 A SECTION OF THE THE CROWD INSIDE THE YARD

The people are about to overcome the mother of all their fears – the fear of a set of jokers ruling the country for the next 5 years. We in Choiseul will never allow fear and propaganda to rule our minds. We have had enough of that nastiness in the name of progress! By the way, in the last two days of the campaign, we will teach Rufus how to do what he loves to do best! So hang on!

Saltibus was in the “Red Zone” on Saturday Night. Hundreds of “red mealy bugs” flooded Asson’s Yard, the Road and adjoining areas for what many pundits have billed as an omen of an imminent political earthquake about to strike the “Salt of the South” – Who will be the major casualty? Is it Bruce Tucker or Rufus Bousquet? Saltibus voted for Rufus Bousquet and but they got Bruce Tucker. Saltibus voted for representation but they received outright rejection; they received a virtual kick in the butt by Tucker in the name of Rufus Bousquet.

  A SECTION OF THE CROWD ON THE ROAD

But eeither Bruce Tucker, nor Rufus Bousquet paid any attention to Saltibus, Gertrine, Daban, Park Estate, Guya Bois etc for 4½ years; At Bousquet’s recent public meeting there, Tucker told the people of Saltibus that he had divided the five years in the ratio of 4:1 between Choiseul and Saltibus, with 4 years for Choiseul and 1 year for Saltibus. QUEEK! QUAK! How ridiculous when Choiseul hardly got a ½ years’ worth of representation. The only persons Tucker represented were his Ti canal contractors.  

ANOTHER SECTION OF THE CROWD HIGHER UP THE ROAD

But the point is when Tucker and Bousquet realized they had failed Saltibus, they placed his old faithful campaign manager on the electoral commission to remove Saltibus, Daban, Gertrine, O Park, Guyabois down to Piaye from the Choiseul constituency and to place it in the Laborie Constituency. He didn’t understand the overwhelming filial bonds between Saltibus and Choiseul. Rufus rejected those innocent communities.

But little did he realize that Saltibus is a community of great minds and indeed, some of them got together and started a mobilization process; it was slow; it was painful for the residents of Saltibus that the man they loved had cruelly rejected them and had even file for a Divorce!
