Barrow Says He Will Only Take Action on Sista B’s Absences if Her Division Files Complaint
So, what, if anything, will Shyne Barrow do about his aunt’s repeated absences from the House of Representatives now that he is the Leader of the Party? Denise “Sista B” Barrow, the U.D.P. Area Representative for Queen’s Square has been noticeably missing from House meetings. So will Shyne be able to convince her to represent her constituency in the House?
Moses “Shyne” Barrow, Party Leader, U.D.P.
“I had this discussion yesterday. You know, forgive me if sometimes I feel that narratives that are put forth to me are biased and it is a P.U.P. narrative, and forgive me. I do believe that the P.U.P. narrative.”
Marleni Cuellar
“The narrative that a elected representative should show up for work?”
Moses “Shyne” Barrow
“Is this your opinion?”
Marleni Cuellar
“That is a question.”

“Is this your opinion?”

“That is a question I am posing to you. Do you believe she should be present at House Meetings?”
Moses “Shyne” Barrow
“My response is, because the first question you asked me is what I will do about it.”
“What do you plan to do?”
Moses “Shyne” Barrow
“The member from Queen’s Square was elected by the people of Queen’s Square, and when the people of Queen’s Square come to me or whatever means of communications they have to express any type of dissatisfaction with the fact that the member for Queen’s Square is not in the House as regularly as you or others may want her to be then I will take immediate actions to address that. But, I have said before that everyone serves their constituency in different ways, and I am all about serving the constituency in the most effective ways for that person. Now, until the rules change in the House standing orders and there is a mandatory requirement, the senior member from Queen’s Square, she is a senior member in the party, will have to deal with the matter. My intervention will come when the people that elected the member for Queen’s Square start to complain.”
