MOVEMENT for Social Justice (MSJ) political leader David Abdulah says Ernesto Kesar and Clyde Elder have resigned from the party in order to contest the general election as candidates under the UNC's coalition of interests (COI).

After saying the working class and the labour movement must remain united, Abdulah said neither the PNM nor the UNC have demonstrated any commitment to implementing a workers' agenda when they are in government.

He added both parties have maintained an approach to divide workers at election time to benefit them politically.
