Phillip Willoughby Weighs in on U.D.P No-Shows

Earlier today, we had an in-depth conversation with Phillip Willoughby, the U.D.P. candidate for Port Loyola under Tracy Panton’s leadership, about his vision for the constituency. He is one of three U.D.P. candidates vying for that seat against incumbent Area Representative Gilroy Usher Senior. We’ll share more about that in tomorrow’s newscast. But tonight, we have his thoughts on the “Shyne” Barrow U.D.P. candidates who didn’t show up on nomination day. Here’s what he had to say.

 

Phillip Willoughby, U.D.P Candidate, Port Loyola

“That is a reflection of Jamal. Clearly it is a reflection of him. That is a reflection of him and on  him clearly and squarely, that drops in his lap. Now, I am disappointed because I know the gentlemen and I know everybody would want to swim this far to turn back or drop out. So something is afoot that went on had these four gentlemen step out and step back. It just doesn’t happen like that. What is there to come in the upcoming general election, of course it is a team sport. You will help your colleagues in all shapes and form. But for the people of Port, if it does come, whoever come, anybody come, when they come at the end of the day they will leave. When they leave it will be just you and I in the very same situation.”
