Barrow: PUP Cabinet troubles “a new low” for good governance

44

By Breaking Belize News Staff (HP): Former Prime Minister Dean Barrow says the current level of turmoil within the Briceño administration is something Belize has not seen in a long time.

In an interview with 7 News, Barrow was asked about Prime Minister John Briceño having to reshuffle ministers and CEOs while others remain sidelined amid corruption allegations.

Barrow said every Prime Minister faces problems, and admitted it would be dishonest to pretend he did not face similar issues during his time in office. He also acknowledged that some members of his own Cabinet did not always play by the rules.

But he said the degree of fracturing and disconnect within the current Government is, if not unprecedented, something not seen for many years.

“The guardrails aren’t working,” Barrow said, arguing that many of the problems involve dishonesty and ministers not keeping their oath to the people.

He said the situation underlines that there is currently no good governance in Belize, describing it as a new low.

Still, Barrow said he wishes the Prime Minister well in trying to regain control of his Cabinet.
