THE David Thompson Memorial Constituency Councils Football Classic is not being used to enhance the Democratic Labour Party’s (DLP) political agenda.
This assurance came yesterday from Acting Prime Minister Richard Sealy, who confirmed that Government would continue to support the competition.
Sealy told those gathered at the Gall Hill playing field, St John, yesterday for the opening ceremony that the tournament, which has become a lightning rod for Government’s critics, was much more than just a football competition.
“We as the Government pledge to you that we will continue to support this effort in the face of whatever criticisms may come,” he said.
No politics!
