In a scathing press release, the St. Lucia United Workers Party (UWP) has vehemently condemned the alarming pattern of misogynistic, threatening, and derogatory remarks made by Minister Richard Frederick. The targeted attacks on private individuals, particularly women, have sparked widespread outrage among the Saint Lucian public.

Minister Frederick’s use of a televised platform to publicly berate and belittle female citizens by name has raised serious concerns about the values and progress of the nation. The UWP, alongside numerous citizens, is resolutely against such behavior, demanding respect and dignity for every individual, regardless of gender.

The press release also pointedly questions Prime Minister Pierre’s silence on the matter, urging him to unequivocally condemn the Minister’s conduct. The UWP stresses that the well-being of society hinges on the leadership’s commitment to equality and respect for all citizens.

The UWP implores responsible citizens to join them in denouncing misogyny and sexism, and to demand accountability from government officials engaging in such behavior. The call for an immediate halt to intimidatory, sexist conduct, especially from a Minister of Government, reverberates with the resounding sentiment: “Enough is enough.”
