Political leader-elect of the PNM, Penelope Beckles, told supporters in Tobago on Tuesday night that she understands the pain members are feeling and pledged to lead differently if elected.
Speaking at the One PNM team meeting in Buccoo, she said, “In Trinidad plenty hurting, and there’s more hurting in Tobago. I mean, some Trinidadians mightn’t be too happy to hear me say that, but when you have lost your both members of parliament and you only have one person in the assembly, that ain’t easy. So I understand the pain and the hurt that many of you all feel.”
Beckles, the political leader-elect, described her leadership style as one rooted in listening, not aggression.
