THE Progressive Liberal Party has dismissed the FNM's attempt of resurrecting their "old" and "tired" script of "leadership and trust" as a worn out distraction ahead of the next general election.
According to PLP Member of Parliament for Fox Hill, Fred Mitchell it is clear that his party has "rattled" Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham's cage, given his response in Grand Bahama.
"We in the PLP have full confidence in Perry Christie to lead a team of distinguished men and women from all walks of life, all generations, socio-economic groups and races in the next general election.
"The PLP is not a biggety one man band that specializes in ad hominem insults, catchy phrases and bad poetry. When will the Prime Minister get the message?" he asked.
Mr Mitchell said that instead of the Prime Minister offering solutions to the deep problems into which he and his administration have plunged this country, he is determined to play "fast and loose with the truth."
"The PLP is focused on restoring good government to the Bahamas not engaging in silliness with Mr Ingraham. The handwriting is on the wall for him. It is best for Mr Ingraham to pray that the Lord will have mercy on him and those FNM's who helped to create this national chaos wrought by the FNM. We will not be drawn into this false contest on leadership when the issues are crime and unemployment.
"We want to get the people working again. Mr. Ingraham needs to learn how to conduct himself as Prime Minister and stop showboating with insulting misinformation for a deluded FNM audience," he said.
