THE PLANNED SWEARING in of Ralph Gonsalves as prime minister of St Vincent and the Grenadines along with his deputy and the attorney general has been postponed.

News of this comes after crowds blocked the road to Government House as the New Democratic Party cried electoral fraud in Wednesday’s general elections.

The Attorney General designate was trapped in her car by crowds who have refused to budge.

Hundreds are chanting “no justice, no peace” as they await the results of a disputed Leewards seat. (HLE)
