S2.E14: Shot Fired, UPP Bolts

from The Big Issues Hosted by The Big Issues Production Team

Badly beaten in the snap election of 2018 and seemingly determined fare better at the polls this time, the main opposition party, the United Progressive Party (UPP), has launched its campaign at the beginning of what is anticipated as an election year. Some wonder if their campaign engine will ware out too early. Others see it as the right political move. In this episode we ask political commentators: Has the main opposition party taken a too great a risk, or could the decision give them an advantage? This programme first aired on NewsCo Observer Radio 91.1 FM on January 30th, 2022. The host is Kieron Murdoch. The guests are: Dr. George Brathwaite, Lecturer in the Department of Government, Sociology, Social Work and Psychology at The University of the West Indies, Cavehill. Former Consultant Editor at the Caribbean Times. Carlon Knight, Political and socio-economic affairs commentator. Get the latest news from Antigua and Barbuda at the Antigua Observer online.
