PAM Leader Delivers Fiery ‘Reckoning’ Speech, Calls for Eviction Notice to Drew Administration

Leader of the People’s Action Movement (PAM), Natasha Grey-Brookes, delivered a blistering critique of the current government on Friday evening, rallying supporters at the Basseterre Ferry Terminal with what she described as a “reckoning” moment for the nation.

Grey-Brookes accused Prime Minister Dr. Terrance Drew and his administration of failing the people of St. Kitts and Nevis, framing her address as both an indictment of government mismanagement and a call for sweeping political change.

“This administration has failed us,” Grey-Brookes declared to loud applause. “This is not a rally; this is a reckoning. This is not an election; this is an eviction notice!”

The PAM leader highlighted the struggles of small business owners forced to close their doors and working families struggling to make ends meet. She emphasized that these hardships were not the fault of ordinary citizens, but the result of systemic neglect.

“Your difficulties are not your fault,” she told the crowd. “It is the result of a system built on neglect and greed.”

Grey-Brookes also spoke passionately about the plight of the vulnerable, from the homeless to those she described as “forgotten” by the government. Her message underscored the human cost of inequality, urging citizens to recognize their struggles as shared and systemic.

Moving from criticism to commitment, Grey-Brookes assured supporters that her leadership would be rooted in solidarity.

“I am not here to stand on a platform above you; I am here to stand with you,” she proclaimed, pledging to “walk with” the people and fight for their needs.

Her remarks were built to a powerful crescendo, positioning the upcoming election as a pivotal moment of accountability. Grey-Brookes urged citizens to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

“Vote for hope. Vote for fairness. Vote for your future,” she said.

The address closed with Grey-Brookes outlining PAM’s vision and priorities, framing the party as a movement for justice and renewal. The fiery tone and unapologetic messaging drew loud cheers from the crowd, signaling a sharpening of political battle lines as the country edges closer to election season.
