Dear Editor,
I am now hoping that the leaders of the predominant People’s Progressive Party, especially the President and Vice President, in the circumstances which have unfolded recently with our aggressive neighbour still more and more attempting to claim the major part of our country and now trespassing on our borders, will by now fully appreciate that they need to come together with the other parties in Government, just as they did in this instance by conferring with the leader of the PNC, to resolve all other issues with which our nation is managed.
It must be borne in mind that no one has the supreme power to look at the various events and matters which would enable them to make the best decisions for our people, and so it has to be in our best interest to keep this coming together in all aspects dealing with our national affairs.
I have always put forward the need to prevent this marginalisation of the minor party or parties in our government by ceasing to label them as the Opposition, which tends to naturally make them feel that their duty is to oppose all that the ruling faction proposes. It must be more appropriate to deem them the Minority, which would still make them feel a part of the government structure with a say in the decision-making process, and encourage a spirit of unity among our people.
Yours sincerely,
Roy Paul
(Cooperation is key to decision-making)
