By Zoila Palma Gonzalez: UDP Chairman Michael Peyrefitte has called out the Alliance for Democracy for causing confusion in the UDPs affairs.
During an interview with Love news, the UDP Chairman said that the UDP leadership remains the same with Shyne Barrow as UDP leader and the leadership executive.
“Honorable Panton declares herself interim leader. That tells you that in their mind there has to be a convention sometime in the future for her to be full leader. In their mind. Now listen to how this doesn’t make sense. We have great information that there is a great possibility that the general elections will be called in March. From their people from their camp that is their belief as well so when do you call, in your mind their mind not in our mind, their mind, when do you call a national convention to determine a permanent leader? You have to give notice according to the UDP constitution that you love. You have to give like two, three months notice. Where does that put you ? November/ December,” the UDP Chairman explained.
In addition, Peyrefitte noted that this would not even leave enough time to reunite after a leadership convention.
“It makes me wonder who is inspiring this movement, this so called Alliance for Democracy. Whenever you look at situations you have to look at who wins you know ? Who is winning in all of this ? Not the UDP. The PUP is winning this. The PUP is getting away with murder because all the attention is focused on internal UDP party politics,” he added.
The UDP Chairman also reiterated that the UDP remains focused on trying to win 16 seats to win the general election.
“You are looking and I see people, full-fledged in this movement and I just hope that that same energy is being put in their constituencies to deliver their seat. Because you create these questions that nobody can answer. We’re not proud to say that we’re in uncharted waters. We have never seen this before. We’ve never seen this before. Like I said the late great National Hero Philip Goldson had the decency to say listen to me I am at odds with Manuel Esquivel and Dean Barrow on this maritime areas act but I am a UDP I will not create any confusion for those in the UDP I will officially without shame say that I am a part of a new party called the National Alliance for Belizean Rights,” he said.
“What we’re saying is this: stop causing confusion in UDP affairs to the point where people like you are asking legitimate questions. What if Johnny gets up tomorrow and says you know what I feel mischievous, 30 days ! Then how does even Honorable Panton become Prime Minister as an interim leader,” he further said.
The UDP chairman also questioned the figures of the convention attendees.
