Chuck admits JLP has communication problem

The governing Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) enters its 83rd annual conference on Sunday against the backdrop of concern that it has a communication problem.

Last Thursday, that anxiety was highlighted in a blunt, public admission by one of its senior members, Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs Delroy Chuck in an address at the commissioning service for justices of the peace (JPs) at Lighthouse Assembly at Garbally Drive in Spanish Town, St Catherine.

Chuck spoke to the issue against the backdrop of members of the party having been forced in recent weeks to focus attention on deflecting and correcting what they deem to be lies and misinformation circulating in the public space, particularly on social media, about the Government.
