And while Barrow disputes and denounces over standing, the fact is, the effect of this judgement only creates more chaos in the already ineffective UDP and makes the path ahead even more unclear. We asked Barrow if anyone is looking out for the good of the party:
Jules Vasquez
"At what point do you look at the party and say, I Shyne Barrow. I'm not elected. People did not choose me for a variety of reasons. Our party is floundering. Why don't I just try to create the most viable version of the UDP?"
"But instead, I hear you saying, no, I won and now we will decide who gets to..."
Shyne Barrow, Leader - UDP
"Yes. What's wrong with that?"
Jules Vasquez
"Because how does it create an effective opposition?"
Shyne Barrow, Leader - UDP
"The same way that they said that I couldn't even come to the building. That I finance the legal claim to get the buildings back."
Jules Vasquez
"So an eye for an eye leaves everyone blind."
Shyne Barrow, Leader - UDP
"No, no, no, sir. I am just telling you that saying that we are in charge, you missed the entire part where I said I'm open to unity, open to reconciliation, but it will be done on our terms."
"As I said, I'm grateful for justice. I will not get ahead of my colleagues. There is much to discuss. I repeat, I am open to presenting the strongest version of the UDP to the public. And I am guided by my colleagues."
"I am not going to be stubborn. The door is not going to be closed for anything. But now, the tables have turned. And I believe the tables were always in our favor, but this makes it unequivocally clear. They can no longer be in a two-DP."
Jules Vasquez
"Would you let the delegates decide who will lead the UDP? Why don't you just do that? Settle it."
Shyne Barrow, Leader - UDP
"Well, the delegates will do that at a national convention."
"I think the question you want to ask is where will Tracy stand in that? And that is to be decided."
