The Big Issues

Pleas Ignored and Political Desertion

Listen Later

PM Gaston Browne makes little of an opposition show of will outside the Governor General's Residence. The opposition itself hemorrhages another deserter from its failed 2018 slate of candidates. We discuss the optics of both and whether the reactions by both sides are politically wise. The host is Kieron Murdoch.


The guests are:


  1. Dr. Oswald Thomas, a political analyst, currently director of political affairs at the New York firm, paramount communications. Dr. Oswald Thomas was politically active in Antigua over many years with the Antigua Labour Party, now the Antigua Barbuda Labour Party.
  2. Mr. Carlon Knight, an Antiguan graduate student with an interest in politics, and currently studying economics.


    3. This programme first aired on NewsCo Observer Radio 91.1 FM on January 10, 2021.
