Political hoax?

Dear Editor,

What a day we witnessed yesterday?

Why do I think all Jamaica will be remembering and talking about his day for a long time? Am I the only one who thinks that Jamaica has just been taken for a ride; that we have fallen for a massive hoax over the past few weeks of the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP) leadership race? Or is this really the beginning of the next election campaign?

Has the JLP just cooked up and, before our blinded eyes, executed a complicated plot to invigorate their party and burnish the image of their leader Anthony Holness?

Have they, in so doing, also energised Audley Shaw to take the fight to the PNP in anticipation of the next election, while the ruling party is enmeshed in trying to dig Jamaica out its economic pothole?

I foresee our political pundits and commentators trying to disentangle this "riddle wrapped up in an enigma" for many moons to come.

What a master stroke of creative strategy, much like a good old-fashioned detective 'who done it' show. We wait to see what the PNP will do to counter this JLP renewal strategy. There is not a dull day in Jamaican politics.
