Lately our young people have been under heavy fire. It’s not uncommon to hear, even from mouths less than fifty years old, that “our youth are lazy, irresponsible, without ambition, criminally inclined. They care not a damn what tomorrow may bring. All they do is hang out in William Peter Boulevard all day long, smoking weed.” If the obvious hyperbole can be overlooked, still it’s worth questioning the observation’s validity?...

Not since we regained independence in 1979 have Saint Lucians been so united in the ethos of a single moment, a single milestone. Yes, there have been other firsts, anniversaries, even Nobel Prizes in which we still rejoice. But this is different, truly global, real-time, and consequently, our greatest shared moment ever. This shining is not just sport. This is about identity....

Almost from the moment he opted to become a back-bencher, immediately following the 2021 general elections, Kenny Anthony’s contributions to House debates have tended to leave his party colleagues in a state of apoplexy. On more than a few occasions the former prime minister had not so subtly reminded fellow parliamentarians that some of them had been his students when he was a law lecturer at UWI—reminders that more often than not underscored the shortcomings of the seldom heard, seldom seen attorney general who sits during House sessions at the right hand of the prime minister....
