What’s Up with Gladys Paredez and the PUDP?

Who is Gladys Paredez? The Fort George resident was Shyne Barrow’s choice for U.D.P. standard bearer in the Collet Division, set to challenge five-time Area Representative Patrick Faber. But things quickly took a turn for the worse. Right after her endorsement, questions arose about Paredez’ loyalty to the U.D.P., with many suspecting she was a P.U.P. supporter at heart. On Sunday, Paredez attended the P.U.P.’s delegates convention and was soon seen wearing a PUP T-shirt. So, how did the U.D.P. react? Earlier today, they announced that as of February tenth, Paredez is no longer their standard bearer.
