U.D.P. Power Struggle Continues

Tonight, we bring you another episode of the U.D.P.’s political drama. Tonight’s installment features U.D.P. Leader Moses “Shyne” Barrow and his challenger, Albert Area Representative Tracy Panton. Panton fired off a letter to the chairman of the U.D.P.’s Ethics and Integrity Committee, Aldo Salazar, when she saw this flyer circulating. The flyer calls for interested persons to submit applications to become the next standard bearer for Caribbean Shores. In her letter, Panton tellls Salazar (quote) “As far as I am aware, the decision to remove of the current Standard Bearer is unconstitutional and, therefore, illegal.  There must be a convening of a National Party Council Meeting for such a decision to be taken by its membership.” She continues, quote, “I urge you to look into this matter post haste so that this decision can be rescinded with immediate effect.”  Sources within the U.D.P. tell News Five that this is the latest move from the party’s leadership to have Panton removed for leading the charge against Barrow. And, Panton has been throwing a lot of shade on Facebook. Her most recent post states, quote, “I stand in solidarity with ALL women who are abused, bullied, disrespected, disregarded or threatened by insecure men who would do just about anything to ensure she does not have a seat at the table”, end quote.
