‘Stop slide’

PRIME MINISTER FREUNDEL STUART yesterday issued a strong warning in direct response to an upsurge in gun violence.

He said his Government had no intention of being “a helpless spectator bound hand and foot” while the wanton use of firearms tore homes and communities apart.

During his more than 40-minute address on the final day of the Democratic Labour Party’s 60th annual conference at the George Street Auditorium, the party president did not say what specific measures his Government intended to pursue.

However, he made clear that his administration harboured grave concerns about the “virtual explosion” in firearms. (WILLCOMM)
