BARROW SCARED UDP Goons Dispatched to Derail Hearings Thursday, 25 May 2017 This week, the PUP demonstrated a valuable lesson in real leadership with its decision to not fight fire with fire and force with force at the Senate hearing scheduled for Wednesday. It had become clear from intelligence reports that the UDP intended to have thugs on hand to attack Senator Eamon Courtenay with a view to once again having the Senate suspended. It was clear too, that the Prime Minister would not call off the thugs, led by his UDP Chairman, which could only mean that he fully condones the disruption of Senate hearings. The PUP could have mobilized buses in support of its Senator, but that would almost certainly have resulted in bloodshed, which would again have played into the
hands of the UDP, since that would have been just the excuse the UDP needs to end the hearings. Both UDP-appointed Chairman Aldo Salazar and Deputy Prime Minister Patrick Faber have stated publicly that they want the hearings over and done with. PUP Leader John Briceño has insisted that the Party will take the high road to ensure that the hearings will continue, giving the Prime Minister no opportunity to call an early end to what has been a series of startling revelations. So the decision was made to suggest the postponement of the hearings for one week to deal with the matter of UDP Chairman Alberto August and his insistence on disrupting the hearings.
