Sacking the future of the UDP – Sheena Pitts and Khalid Belisle

By Delroy Cuthkelvin: On both occasions that he seized parliamentary control of the United Democratic Party (UDP), Shyne Barrow has sacked from the Senate promising UDP politicians who represent the Future of the Party.

The first time he obtained the position of Opposition Leader, Shyne removed Khalid Belisle, two-term Mayor of Belmopan City, even before he could receive his official letter of confirmation as a Senator.

This time he has removed Senator Sheena Pitts who is, by all accounts, one of the best debaters ever to represent any of the parties in the Senate or House.

In both instances, it is clear Shyne’s reasoning had nothing to do with the fitness or effectiveness of the Senators but entirely with the fact that they are not declared loyalists of his and had been appointed by former Opposition Leader Honorable Patrick Faber.

This is another glaring case of self-interest above the good of the Party and the Country. Again, we must call it as we see it; and, come what may, we will continue to do so.
