Carolyn Seepersad Bachan, you will go down in history as the person who not only destroyed the corpse of a dead party, but destroyed every other small party foolish enough to stop and listen to your nonsense.
You are forming a movement so that others can put up candidates for you to lead? But Basdeo Panday coming to your meetings because he trying to ride you while you riding the others. And the other three waiting for a leader to 'emerge'.
Emerge from where, Mordor? IF you don't have a leader after a year of meeting, doesn't that tell you something?
Not ONE of you have the ability to build a national party, so you ganging up to pass off as if you are one?
So much distracting foolishness at a time when the country needs all hands on deck.
How can you call yourself 'Better United' if you are unwilling to unite? What exactly are you selling?
A 'loose' arrangement you say, how loose?
Different rules in Diego Martin, Moruga, and Chaguanas? At least the People's Partnership coalition had a unifying structure.
You are trying to pass off the illusion of structure when no structure exists.
NONE of the parties meeting with you trust you or each other, so five parties are forming a coalition with five leaders.
