Premier of Nevis the Hon. Mark Brantley.

Meantime, Congratulatory marks continued to pour in for Prime Minister Pierre as Political Leader of the St Kitts-Nevis Labour Party (SKNLP) and Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, the Right Hon. Dr. Denzil L. Douglas applauded the new leader in his recent election victory and appointment as Prime Minister of St. Lucia.

Dr. Douglas said and I quote: “Putting people first is a foundational principle of Labour….

Hence the Party’s mantra of “Putting You First” connected with the needs and concerns of the people through your know-your-voter campaign and the people of St. Lucia responded positively by giving you a resounding mandate to serve and govern for the next 5 years,” end quote.

Dr. Douglas added that “this mandate from the people is their show of confidence in the St. Lucia Labour Party to lead them through these turbulent times.”
