Jeanne D'Arc
What they have is a draconian antiquated proposal made by Boulle that would make SPPF PL proud.
One only wonders what is going on with these people in SNP NDP and Boulle.

They have become monarchy systems supported by official propaganda and thorough brainwashing, while many of our people are suffering.
You forgot to add:

they are part of Seychelles Criminal Conspiracy.

Reply to Fes -
1. the Boulle proposal is a Boulle NDP SNP document.
2. This has a Sr. 25,000.00 fine or 6 months imprisonment for attempting to exercise the right to Peaceful Assembly, placed on the citizen if he fails to meet Boulle criteria.
3. If a Commissioner does not approve a Public Assembly, the citizen can go behind closed doors in Chambers, and get a Judge to deliberate on the matter.
SPPFPL and Simon Gill could not have proposed a more draconian law. Is this what we waited for for 18 years under a fake democracy with fake presidential candidates running for office, then sitting at a table together?
"Fes" I think you are simply lost.
Personally, I do not buy Le Seychellois, the writing is poor and boring and lacks substance. They quote Shakespere, without understanding Shakespere just to act smart. They think we are in a democracy and this is a fundamental flaw in their thinking.

Je m'inquiète, que Boulle might be just another sell out scum.What do you think?
SNP,NDP,LEPEP and Boulle are real parties who have guts to stand in elections unlike you jokes in SFP who just insult, make a lot of noises and lies yet are the biggest COWARDS because you know you are the weakest of all the parties. Gill you are a failure and hate all others who succeed in this country. We all support different parties and have differences of political opinion but we have balls unlike you. You can continue insulting Michel, Mancham, Rene, Ramkalawan. Boulle, Adams, Savys and Faures but we all know how you wish you were one of them even for a day. These men have achieved for our country and continue achieving much to your distress. Sesel pou vre seselwa PA en make believe americano parey ou Gill. Apran kOz kreol avan prezent ou lekor zako e insilte ban vre seselwa.
Let me tell you something; go grow some balls before attacking Gill. I have lots of respect for Gill compare to that opposition party , the reason why they will not unite with Gill is that Gill can see them for the crooks they really are. Pl and and pussies opposition can fool you and the rest of your ignorant companion. If anyone can bring change into this country it will be Gill, the rest just doesn’t have any balls a bunch of pussies cannot rule a country. A bunch of sell out just like PL.
@ Jeanne D'Arc, "They have become monarchy systems supported by official propaganda and thorough brainwashing, while many of our people are suffering" was not meant for Gill, it was meant for PL cronies and the pussies opposition.
Donn Lápaix.
I agree with Donn Lápaix, concerning 'SNP,NDP,LEPEP and Boulle are real parties' (real parties my ass) like Donn said; they really need to grow some balls. How long have they been around, and cannot do anything, and still cannot do anything, apart from banking their fat cheque at the end of each and every month.

NDEA officier are losing their pistol or they are selling it to get money for alcohol shame on them,the police in chief musst go.
There you are! Gill has finally said it! "Zako you are a real Seychellois I suppose."
He is saying that all of us Seychellois are Zako that bloody fabrike that used to pick coconut from Guam!
Pissedoff dear why are you so Pissedoff? Probably sitting on your ass doing nothing cause JAM will rather drink champagne with his Arabs friends, than sitting on rocks drinking baka with you. Oh poor you. GET OVER YOURSELF ZAKO.
Mon fatige dir zot ki ZAKO i laba dan biro SFP - Watch the movie Planet of the Apes and tell me if that little prick Isaaq is not the main star!
For sure we have sako in this country, they have been trying to run this country for 37 years but they are always backward. Our hospital is a disgrace, our road is another disgrace, attitude towards tourism is another disgrace, our beaches is no longer belong to us, most of it are barricated for Russians and Arabs eyes only. People are surrounded by steel bars as if they live in a prison. Our law is a joke.No jobs for our young generation beside drug dealings or prostitution. only two things for this sellout government to do, step up or step down.
What you say about that Pissoff le roi Zako?
You say SNP nad DNP are geniune party?
The schism produce within the opposition by SNP and NDp is a bony fide indicator of the illness of an organisation.They can not even sit and have a healthy discussion for the cuase of the country that they proclaimed they love.They refused to sacrifice the personal need in then for the sake of progress and democracy.But why do they make the Opposition their haven of division?One one hand,thier existence depend on the reigme,so the only option that the Butcher offers them is to praticiapte inthe trading of our people.rthey play the orle of escort party to the butcher who uses them a showcase to colloect his cheques form his Western donors,which in return they get their benefits for payling the stooges.They help Pp thugocracy hold the people hostage just for their own personal egoand to driving the nation agaisnt its will.For them change is something that is difficult to accept for they all have gained their comfort zone and any thing different is disconcerting.SFP call for unity,rule of law etc...is bound to disturb thier comfort zone.On the over hand,Tghose stooges do not want unity bexcuase they are not democrats themsleves,so they can not contribute for the democratization ,they have never had any sort of politcal program,they lack vision and principleed for waht the proclaimed to stand for.They just do not have the democratic discipline not the political will to act democratically.They stand for MONEY AND POWER.
We must reject andy and all politcal orientations that divid us for self-interests.They need holisticapproach to liberate their very humanity from the shackles and dondages of individual crisis and confusions.
It is really shameful for those who honestly donate their money and spend their time for hoping that those obedient stooges would bring them change,betteremnt in their lives,but unfortunately they must accept the fact that their little millionaire priest who promised them the promise land has cheated them.They have been used as a scapegoat led and plunged into sort of confusion that is filled with dishoneaty.They have been amde to bleive in wicked-men to the likes of RAM and Volcere,serving the visidious and diabolic wrong purpose.
Shame on You Stooges.
Jeanne D'Arc
Personally I don't give a monkey's!
No monkey does!
Of course you don’t give a monkey; you are happy eating leftovers from the Arabs and Russians.
This sell out government is taking its people for fools (which by the way includes you to my dear Pissedoff!)
PL, Boulle and SNP are the biggest lie in history of Seychelles. A failured and inefficient ZAKO, promises a paradise a better future which until today we have not yet seen.In fact the country is at it worse poverty ever.
I am not being judgemental, I'm just telling the truth.I don't hate anyone. Everybody should have the same opportunities and should be equal.
Everybody have to compete and deliver in this society,and from what I can see only Seychelles Freedom Party doing a great job by exposing those who has always been willing to accept any dictator no matter how corrupt and evil they might be so long as they get a fat cheque.

Where do I find a copy of Boulle's proposal,another sellout scum, cannot help wondering what he has to offer!
Clair D'lune*
Is this what Boulle has to offer:
1. the Boulle proposal is a Boulle NDP SNP document.
2. This has a Sr. 25,000.00 fine or 6 months imprisonment for attempting to exercise the right to Peaceful Assembly, placed on the citizen if he fails to meet Boulle criteria.
3. If a Commissioner does not approve a Public Assembly, the citizen can go behind closed doors in Chambers, and get a Judge to deliberate on the matter.

This has Ralph Volcere written all over it as a conversation has it that at marine charter between frank elizabeth and ralph volcere, Volcere claimed that the result of the election was a shock and that he is indefinately going into the peanut business which will make him millionaires and to his term he was inferring that seychellois are all zako which did not vote for him.
Christopher Gill on the other hand was calling out Sesel pou seselwa no matter your political color and to top it all up he said Seselwa unite with God bless all freedom loving seychellois and everybody around the world.
If mr ralph volcere wants to be more seychellois than the people of seychelles number one he needs to stop bitching around about his british citizenship, his kids are all schooling overseas and guess what who paid for their facilities and by which money the nouveau seychelles weekly?? No way!
Gills kids are schooling where?
And volcere we now understand why you brought i9n boulle with you he also cannot speak clear creole by not incorporating his bad french.
Ralph who is the monkey now? And Spell properly ". Apran kOz kreol avan prezent ou lekor zako e insilte ban vre seselwa." Prezant is written in creol with an A not E!!
That's what is comparing himself to christopher gill a mon dieu!!
Communists always beleive fialures are success.Michel in his State of the Nation praised himself by saying"We have reached the summit of the moutain"while our country is in a mess,may be it confused Khalfia Palcae at the summit of La mIsere mountain to the mess he ceated,He went on to say"Our unity,harmony,democracy etc ..had made it possible,for the Bucher one-man.party-state is democracy,and the division and discrimination he creates betwwen our people for his is harmony.
On those obedient stooges RAM;BOULLE ;VOLCERE,The so called loyalty attitude they proudly demonstrate addresses a discrepancy in the rational choice about the nature of leaders behaviour.For instance,a rational actor does not stick with a declining firm,the rational actor seeks out better alterantives.Loyalty is a type of passive optimism,this is the attitutde di,and a behaviour characterized by failure to exit reflects this attittude.Loyal politcal leaders often lack organizational committment,beleived improvement unlikely,and had no exit options.Increased loyalty actually led to a decrease in voice,leaving loyal leaders to suffer in silent.Is loyalty behaviour a choice of al leader make or is it a chioce made for them?A question to Pissedoff?
Jeanne D'Arc
The above two posts has rejection and dejection written all over it...
Gill feels dejected because of the rejection by everyone from all corners of the Island...bougla soon wa bezwen tir lekor e bate!
Listen maybe you and Isaaq can get a job on board the Costa Allegra as entertainers. I'm sure after all their tribulations an Organ grinder and his Monkey could put a smile back on their faces!
It seems that Boulle has been told to do a little more than just to show up for presidential election.
did anyone read the weekly this past week?
what the hell is going on has ralph turned to danny faures side?
The newspaper was just a pro for danny faures protection, i cannot believe what i read!
Now i know why gill says he needed to form his own party, all these guys are on PL payroll.
Now that Ramadoss is going to be made minister one would say critisize him but ralph goes all on pl defence. Shitttttttttt
If what’s written on the above is true, then we are in more trouble than we thought we were. And not mentioning disrespect of Hoarau’s memories a man that Volcere called brother.
Ralph Volcere if you are here reading this, and if you are the man you said you are show your face here. We would like to read what you have to say about this. Things are beginning to make sense, one of my best friend in UK who happens to be Volcere’s friend from the time of SNM, told me that Volcere have red written all over him. WHAT THE F**K IS GOING ON?
From what I can see Christopher Gill and the SFP are risking their lives just like SNM did. What a shame that they all crumble and fell after Hoarau was murdered. Most of them now have run to red (bunch of hypocrites/pussies, one must have sold Hoarau out to the red) It is one of the reason I fear for Gill. This sell-out/pathetic government are afraid of the truth. Tjhey do not take it kindly after being caught red handed.
Donn Lápaix
(hahahahaha Pissedoff nek ,nek, nek, nek, nek, nek pe worried about losing his job as a bread crumbs sucker)
Volcere is one of them ;paid like RAm to paly Pp's stooge:The more that Pp thorws tax payers money to him the more he unvolunatriyl enviel the his real face under the oppostion mask he has been hiding under.He wanted to play his stooge game quietly by simmulating and faking and dress in the garb of oppostion clothingwwith the hope no one indentifies him.
Maybe like Judas he was hoping to be named minister like St Ange.We will expose them all and make sure sooner than latter the people send them find a life.
Jeanne D'Arc
Eoula bez donn lapaix ou lekor kouyon and get out of that time warp you’ve enclosed yourself in. There are no sell outs! Volcere like Mancham have moved on with the times and if you want to do something for the Seychelles that you are forever professing your love for you should do the same! That handful of you who are still trapped in 1976 should move on. We are in a new century now e Sesel pe avanse si ou pa kontan direcsyon ki la mazorite nou pe ale debarke!
If you suspect that SNM and MPR are implicated in Gerard’s death then for god’s sake do something about it but foutou bez les Sesel move on!
Every week there’s a new twist to this guy’s death!
We did move on from 1976 but too bad we moved to the wrong direction and now we have no choice but to go back to the junction and start over. We must not forget who led us to the precipice in the first place and why they did so. We must convince the feeble that a trail to our destiny does exist and we should help them gather energy for the long way back to square one.
Yep we always knew that's where you want to take us, back dan fernwar. Please take Isaaq with you and stay there!
Nou nwa swiv conseille ki ou tonton ti don nou dan so lim nasyonal...nwa mars an avan!
En Avan avec JAM begging bowl to other countries kouyon. Yhis monkey regime cannot do anything for themselves without having to beg from abroad.Communism is the biggest lie in history. A failured and inefficient system. Regime needs a total clean out, PL needs to step down.
The art of having a peaceful country is not by forcing fear in the people's hearts and planning does not drop from heaven nor is it presented full-blown into one’s hands with the conquest of power. This art may be mastered only by struggle, step by step,not only by a small group with their misstresses and friends who indulge themselves with booz/drugs/prostitute like this regime is doing.BUT by people who have the best ability in doing so fair and square, freedom and justice for all.

SPUP/SPPF/PL struggle to stay in power because they are afraid of the truth, sooner or later they will have to answer and make account of all the people they have tortured and killed.
