The PSU President had one other hot-take directed at the Opposition UDP.
He is insisting that it is high time that the Joint Public Accounts Committee meets to start reviewing how the public's finances are being used:
Dean Flowers - President, Public Service Union
"And I want to call on the Opposition to get their darn act together, and to start seeing that the JPAC starts functioning. We're not interested in the nonsense that's happening in their organization. We're interested in the affairs of the general public. Again, approximately 200 million dollars of additional funding has passed through the House, not a single cent to empower the JPAC with experts that they will need. Not all members of the JPAC are able to interpret and analyze financial statements and so they may need to consult people - not a single cent to empower the JPAC and the Integrity Commission so that they're able to hold past elected officials and current elected officials accountable. Belizean people, we need to wake up. It is not Barrow's money that was spent. It is not Briceno's money that is being spent. It is your money that is being spent, and no one is overseeing this spending, and holding leaders accountable."
