IT’S OFFICIAL. Hal Martin will not be the Democratic Labour Party’s (DLP) candidate to contest the St Thomas constituency in the next general election.
The party’s decision was made at a meeting on August 10, when Roleric Hinds was selected to carry the DLP’s banner.
According to a source who attended that meeting, Hinds received unanimous support for the post when he was recommended to the General Council.
In spite of this development, a petition signed by more than 400 people from across the constituency is calling on the party to select Martin to be the candidate. (SP)
