ONE OF THE high-ranking members of the Barbados Labour Party (BLP) has given the green light to a proposed general election strategy targeting four constituencies, including the ones held by the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance.
Chairman George Payne said he was all for the plan to pump more funds and other resources into St Michael South held by Prime Minister Freundel Stuart, St Michael North West represented by Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler, St Lucy which has been long held by Minister of Housing Denis Kellman, and St John held by Mara Thompson.
He revealed the plan at a BLP Christ Church East meeting Sunday night at St Christopher’s Primary School where 21 people were awarded for their contribution to the community.
Payne was clear that the BLP wanted to win all 30 seats in the House of Assembly, but said they needed to specifically ensure the removal of the four Democratic Labour Party members. (WILLCOMM)
