PM Browne Mocks Lovell\u2019s Political Comeback<\/strong><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Prime Minister Gaston Browne has dismissed Harold Lovell\u2019s announcement of his intention to contest the All Saints West seat, ridiculing the former United Progressive Party (UPP) leader\u2019s electoral record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a social media post, Browne referred to Lovell as \u201cLoser Lovell (L Squared)\u201d and claimed the 70-year-old was \u201cback\u2026 for a tenth beating,\u201d seeking to \u201cbetter his personal best of nine electoral losses.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The post, punctuated with a string of laughing emojis, comes after Lovell told supporters he was ready to return to active politics, pledging a campaign focused on community service and \u201cleadership that puts people first.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Lovell previously served as MP for St John\u2019s City East and has twice led the UPP into general elections without securing victory.<\/p>\n
