Today is being recognized as Labour Day or Sir. Randol Fawkes Day; the man recognized as “The Father of the Labour Movement”. It is a day set aside as a holiday on the first Friday of June to recognize and celebrate the nard working proletariat
This day has been hi-jacked by the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP), and to hear them tell their story – it is a PLP holiday but the only thing that they have succeeded in doing is to create separate between the average workers based on politics when this day has nothing to do with politics.
The PLP has become toxic to the Workers Day Celebrations by first separating the workers from their colleagues, whom they should be walking with, by encouraging them to walk with the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP), turning the march into a political event.
They further separate the workers from their fellow colleagues by encouraging them to end the march at Gambier House, the PLP Headquarters; instead of encouraging them to end it and socialize together on Arawak Cay.
The Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) has always been a party of separatists and only encourages “togetherness’ with it politically convenient for them as a party and/or government.
The PLP fails for one reason, it is their nature.
