The Prime Minister also attended today's swearing in, both as proud big brother and the Head of Government. PM Barrow said it is a great honour, but he doesn't grudge his brother:

"How do you feel fraternally?"

Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow, Prime Minister
"Well it's a great day for him and clearly a great day for the family of which I am a part and a great day for Belize. So congratulations all around."

Jules Vasquez, 7News
"Did you ever picture yourself if you haven't chosen a life in politics and maybe had gone the path of your brother that it could be you? I heard in your day you weren't too rusty an attorney."

Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow, Prime Minister
"Not at all. Never had the patience, never had the temperament that would be required of a judge."

Leader of the Opposition John Briceno also attended the swearing in.
