The Tribune

EDITOR, The Tribune.

Just a quick note to thank you for today’s editorial (May 17). I had been trying for more than two months to ascertain exactly at what point former Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham in 2002 said whoever won the referendum would win the general election. Unfortunately, providence had it that I was in Singapore for the 2002 referendum, so I had no recall of the campaign. My sense told me that his statement was precipitated by the about face of the PLP, but I could not find the support. So, tonight I was pleased to read in the editorial that Mr Ingraham uttered those words quite some time after the about face of the PLP.

I note that you referred to your reporter who made the point in the news story with Mr Davis saying that he and the PLP had nothing to apologise for. I recall seeing the story, but did not bother to read it as I had heard Mr Davis’s unrepentant statement on radio news earlier.

Once again, thanks for the history refresher!
