Hammie La Gone [From The Barbados Labour Party]

          Hamilton Lashley have decided to go at it alone. At least for now. More than two hrs ago the grass root politican announced his resignation from the Barbados Labour Party declaring himself an independent.

It’s no secret the gentleman wasn’t to keen on Mia assuming leadership position of the party. Did that play its part? Or was it disillusion with his former party’s philosophy of looking out for the small man? Supposedly he was just a pawn in a game, taken advantage of his sincerely regarding the poor, it’s becoming clearer where ever the man goes his supporters will follow. As for now the St. Michael South East seat is held by an independent. A seat that will be hotly contested come elections 2013. Providing of course the man don’t switch again! But how can the gentleman remain a stand alone if he still thinks he have more to offer the unfortunate in this country? Is he abiding his time? Is there a place waitng for him in the DLP’s camp? Ain’t that gonna cause confusion, bitterness and distress. Undene Whittaker your positon is threatened.

Maybe not. Rumours around election time have it that Hammie La heart wasn’t in it and so he went so far as to encourage the residents of St. Micheal South East to vote for Undene! So maybe just maybe a plan may work itself out to partner with Undene, win the next elections for the DLP and be her sidekick in the Ministry. The battlelines are drawn for sure. Why do I have the feeling the 2013 elections gonna be a ding dong battle more so than 2008.
