Mp Emmanuel: Shadow Group Running Government Without Coalition Accord

PHILIPSBURG, Sint Maarten — Independent Member of Parliament Christophe Emmanuel on Sunday asked the general public to consider the complete disrespect of the current rogue government that refuses to provide information about the 8-member Parliamentary support it says it enjoys in Parliament.

Emmanuel reminded the public that to date neither the government of St. Maarten nor their so called support in Parliament has presented one shred of documentation to show who are the members of Parliament that officially supports the sitting government Read more

PHILIPSBURG:--- MP Wescot-Williams again challenges the legitimacy of the NA/UP Government, in the absence of any agreement that shows that at least 8 members are in support of this government.

We can recall how the support of two new/additional members was announced at the end of June, more than 5 months ago.

Notwithstanding my request for an official communique to parliament; notwithstanding my request for a debate of the governments year plan for the 2022-2023 parliamentary year, it remains a deafening silence.

In all of this, the appointment of a Tourism, Economic Affairs, Telecommunication, and Transportation minister remains shrouded in mystery, the MP added, and one can not help but wonder why Read more

Mp Sarah Wescot-Williams, Body Searches Sad And Unacceptable.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten, – MP Sarah Wescot-Williams was appalled by not only the two incidents as described in recent publications regarding so-called search tactics used by the police in Philipsburg against two citizens, but also by the reaction of the police top.
