BASSETERRE, St Kitts (CMC) – Seven years after he quit the then-ruling St Kitts-Nevis Labour Party (SKNLP) to form the People's Labour Party (PLP), Sam Condor has again called it quits and is returning to the now-Opposition SKNLP.
Condor, who served as the federation's ambassador to the United Nations until Thursday, said that members of the Team Unity Government “in five short years have forgotten why the unity construct and its agenda appeal to so many of our people.
“Unfortunately we have not seen the focus necessary to address this level of divisiveness in our society and if anything, our society has become more divided now than it has ever been,” said Condor, who quit the SKNLP Administration in 2013 in a show of support for Harris, who had then been removed by Douglas from the Cabinet.
The coalition, Team Unity, comprises Harris's PLP, the People's Action Movement (PAM) and the Concerned Citizens Movement (CCM).
But Douglas has said that the SKNLP is fully mobilised to contest the elections, predicting “the St Kitts-Nevis Unity Administration will lose the election and the St Kitts-Nevis labour Party will emerge with a mandate to lead our people into a new post-COVID-19 era where we will fix a lot of the problems that have existed”.
