G-Eleven Member Says Accord is One Step, P.U.P. Isn’t One Big, Happy Family
On Wednesday the People’s United Party announced a mending of the fences between those faithful to the P.U.P. Leader, Francis Fonseca, and those rebellious standard bearers, unofficially dubbed the G-eleven. That came after a meeting at Burrell Boom between Fonseca and G-eleven. It’s a significant development because all indications are that the general election will be called very soon so the P.U.P. is closing ranks. Area representative for Orange Walk South, Jose Mai, is a member of the breakaway bunch so today we asked him about this new accord. His response suggests that it may be a first step, but the P.U.P. is still certainly not one big, happy family.

“Is that an indication that all is fine and the P.U.P. is moving ahead with all thirty-one Standard Bearers on the same page?”
Jose Mai
“All is not fine. But we hope that all will be fine very soon. And I will be at the rally Saturday.”

“So what has been gained from the prolonged period where the G-eleven stood strong and agitated for different changes in the party?”
Jose Mai
“Mike I will be at the rally on Saturday. That’s all I will say about that. In blue.”
