By Zoila Palma: Recently, former Prime Minister Dean Barrow indicated that from the look of things, the PUP is leading to secure a 3rd term in office.
“Well, if he does run the way things are going, it looks like he will win again. And that’s why I come back to my point that he will win despite the fact that if you look at things objectively, you might say he has no business winning again, too much is happening within the PUP. But on the other hand, for whatever reasons, and this is not any kind of a criticism of my party, and certainly not of the leadership of my party,” Barrow said.
He also said that UDP Leader Tracy Panton is making every effort to lead the UDP.
“I believe Mrs. Tracy Panton is making every effort to lead from the front, but for all sorts of objective reasons, We have not yet gelled as a as a proper, forceful opposition. So, one of the prices that we’re paying for that is that indeed, if the good Mr Briceno decides he would run again as things now stand, he will win again,” Barrow explained.
But, during Tuesday’s UDP press conference, Panton said that she disagrees with that outlook.
“I absolutely do not agree with that premise, and my colleagues on my left will tell you we are actively on the ground and everywhere. Every part of this country that I travel to-every village, every town, every city-the people, no matter what part of the social stature they come from, say the same thing: enough is enough is enough, and it is time for the UDP to get back to governing this country. If I’m going to bet, I will bet on the people,” Panton said.
