Dear Editor,
You have been deputy leader of Area Council Three for 14 years, what is your outstanding achievement in that political terrain? Mr Shaw, before making the decision to mount a leadership challenge you owe it to the public to tell us what you have accomplished.
Firstly, were you able to carry home Central Jamaica in the last election? Under your watchful eyes, the parish that you represent has only one sitting MP. How many seats were you able to carry home for St Ann? The same can also be asked for Clarendon, as there are only three MPs. So then, if you were not able to carry home Central Jamaica why then you seek to become the leader of the JLP? My grandma always say "yuh affi learn fi dance a yard before yuh can dance abroad".
Mr Shaw please to tell the nation:
Were the concerns that you now passionately share in the public domain placed on the records of the officers' meeting of the Party?
Did you make any contribution to the central executive as how the JLP can position itself in becoming a more popular Opposition?
Were these concerns made known to the present Leader of the JLP?
Where are the records to show your discontent and concerns of the way in which the JLP was/is moving?
Were you waiting for your time to shine?
Please be advised that a criticism of Holness's leadership is also one of your own failure -- teamwork, teamwork, Mr Shaw. While I admire your ambition to lead this noble party, I urge you reconsider your position in the interest of the JLP and Jamaica. You are a good worker, but not the man to lead us. You, however, are a part of the plan to achieve Andrew Holness's vision. There is a place for you in his leadership.
