DOZENS?of Barbados Labour Party (BLP) faithfuls made the trek to Parliament yesterday for the first sitting after the summer recess and most of them had eyes only for a rejuvenated Owen Arthur.
Reassigned by a majority vote from his parliamentary colleagues to the leadership of the Opposition, Arthur arrived right on time for the 10 a.m. start of the Lower House.
Here, a dapper Arthur prepares to make his way up the steps of Parliament, followed by colleagues (from left) William Duguid, Ronald Toppin and Gline Clarke, as members of the media look on. (MK)
