Leader of Government Business Barry Padarath has fired back at Opposition Chief Whip Marvin Gonzales, dismissing allegations that the Government is failing to account to the population as “nothing short of a deflection.”
Padarath’s response comes after Gonzales, in a Facebook post, claimed that the Opposition had been blocked from holding Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar to account after five of seven questions submitted for Prime Minister’s Question time were disallowed in Parliament.
Speaking with Guardian Media yesterday, Padarath accused the Opposition of hypocrisy and cowardice, insisting that their criticism was an attempt to distract from internal controversies.
