PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad – THE parliamentary opposition Antigua and Barbuda Labour Party (ABLP) has alerted the secretariats of both the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) and the Organisation of American States (OAS) to what it views as a serious threat to constitutional, democratic governance in that twin-island Eastern Caribbean country.
This dramatic initiative yesterday came against increasing indications that the governing United Progressive Party (UPP) of Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer may be moving for a snap general election in the wake of losing high profile court cases both at home and before the Eastern Caribbean Court of Appeal.
What triggered yesterday’s complaint to the OAS and Caricom by Opposition Leader Gaston Brown was his party’s anger over what it referred to as “another unlawful move” by the ruling UPP in Parliament last Friday.
