Pub­lic Util­i­ties Min­is­ter Bar­ry Padarath has fired back at Port-of-Spain North/St Ann’s West MP Stu­art Young, fol­low­ing the MP’s sharp crit­i­cism of Christ­mas events held at the Of­fice of the Prime Min­is­ter (OPM) and the Min­istry of Pub­lic Util­i­ties (MPU).

In a force­ful Face­book post yes­ter­day, Padarath de­scribed Young’s re­marks as “shame­less” and ac­cused him of politi­cis­ing pub­lic ser­vants.

“In his usu­al dis­gust­ing and abra­sive at­ti­tude to­wards pub­lic ser­vants, I have tak­en note of com­ments made on so­cial me­dia by MP Stu­art Young,” he wrote.
