This Dream, he says, he has since 2001 when he was elected municipal council of St Martin commune.
Now my question is, who you dreaming for Mr Gibbs?? The population of St Martin? Who you trying to fool Mr Gibbs???
I would like to remind you that the population of St Martin is not completely stupid, not all of us are ignorant!! Since when are you bothered about St Martin's population?? After 9 years of being an elected member, by the population, you suddenly realised that you actually need the people of this island? But Mr Gibbs, you never bothered with the St Martin population, your whole life time!
The first thing you did when elected Vice President is bring one of your good friend from France Mr Claysen and give him the post of Director de l'Office du Tourism. Was Mr Claysen one of us? I don't think so. And I'm not going to remind the readers of the whole nightclub saga that followed that episode!
What about your Directrice du Tourisme? Mme Bessiere. Where exactly is she from? But what a lovely exposé she gave us at the last Conseil Territorial! If I have one good advice to give you is stop making the Collectivité pay foreigners to tell us what we already know about OUR Island!
What about the locals that you got rid of Mr Gibbs? What about Diane Fleming with whom you never saw eye to eye. Isn't she back in Guadeloupe now? What about Sabrina Charville?? When last you had a meeting with her? Aren't you in charge of the airport in Grand-Case? But now we have to hear that you want to give our airport to some foreign country!
But what about the rest of them? All of sudden, still part of your Operation Seduction a la Population, we have to hear the most gorgeous profile on Mr Moreau, godfather of your child he described himself. Now who are you trying to fool?
The truth is that you have never liked the local population on a personal level and on a political level but now you're asking them to back you up! Now you say you're doing all of this for us! What exactly happen for you to start doing things for us because you're track record does not show you doing anything for us before.
5,000 jobs for St Martin Mr Gibbs you're shouting on the radio! 5,000 jobs for who exactly? The way I'm seeing things, those are 5,000 jobs for 10,000 more metropolitans to come on our island! Last time the French side had investors building projects on our island it became the invasion of the French metropolitan population here. The same people your surround yourself with, by the way! Why should it be any different this time?
The point is Mr Gibbs, YOUR project looks very nice but any project looks very nice on paper! The details are what important Mr Gibbs is. And for that I have a few questions here for you. After YOU put all this extra land and change the shape of our island, who will own this land?? Since we know that the Collectivité cannot pay for it. Those 800 M Euros, who is going to pay for it? And how will they be reimbursed ?
What I'm asking you Mr Gibbs is stop talking about doing things for us! You are not one of us ! You never were one of us before, you're not that worthy!
