Opposition party wants ban on gambling
Sep 25, 2013
CASTRIES, St. Lucia, CMC – The small opposition Lucian Peoples Movement (LPM) is calling on the government to ban gaming facilities and slot machines which it claims are having a destabilising effect on the lives of St. Lucians.
The LPM has accused both the ruling St. Lucia Labour Party (SLP) and the main opposition United Workers Party (UWP) of hypocrisy in dealing with the situation.
“Apparently, the failure to remember the positions taken while in opposition is becoming the new norm in St. Lucian politics,” the LPM said, making reference to the position adopted by the SLP on gambling when in opposition.
