King’s Make or Break Billion-dollar Budget!

St. Lucia Star "Sir John Compton, in what would turn out to be the final budget address he would deliver to St Lucia, said: 'These are challenging times, but exciting times.' The last year has certainly been challenging for the UWP government that he brought out of political exile in December 2006.
Arrests of several ministers, leadership ‘struggles’ and the rise in cost of oil and consumer goods are just a few of the issues the government has had to weather. Sir John’s death last September had seemingly sent the UWP into a tailspin with no clear path. In fact many believe that the government has yet to settle into tangible work. (But that could just be poor public relations. Did someone say ‘Jeff’?)."
