Mark King “Is Not a U.D.P.”

Mark King

The Deputy P.M.’s spiel was not only expelled on the P.U.P. Even a former colleague, who just also happens to have been a former area representative from Lake Independence, got his name called. Mark King has expressed interest in running to succeed Anthony “Boots” Martinez in the Port Loyola division, but Faber rubbished that idea almost gleefully during his presentation as an aside in his going after King’s predecessor and successor, Cordel Hyde.

Patrick Faber, Deputy Prime Minister

“You ask [Cordel Hyde] where his constituency office is; doesn’t have any. Seven thousand dollars a month! In fact when the last representative from Lake Independence – yeah, Mark King, the one well… which I will tell this nation now: I see him putting up things on Facebook and so. He is not a U.D.P. and unu noh follow he; he made his errors and the party is outright disowning him, so noh mek ih tek no claim. He can’t run for U.D.P.”

Of course, King had his response ready, posting on Facebook shortly afterward that it was not Faber’s call whether he could run or not, and after his recent run of disappointments, Faber can expect a long war up to the nomination contest and that it will get nasty. He also called on the Prime Minister and party leader to intervene and discipline his deputy.
