(Caricom News Network) PORT OF SPAIN – Former Member of Parliament for Chaguanas West Jack Warner would face expulsion from the United National Congress (UNC) if he contests the by-election as an independent candidate.
Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar yesterday said the party’s constitution does have certain sanctions and provisions that prevent a member from contesting a seat as an independent candidate.
“The constitution of the party provides for what will happen if a person should go up on any other ticket except that of the party. I think the constitution provides that such a person would be expelled,” Persad-Bissessar said.
The Prime Minister made the statement in response to questions from the media after a visit with Secondary entrance Assessment (SEA) pupils at Tranquility Government Primary School, Stanmore Avenue, Port of Spain.
