Prime Minister Gaston Browne has condemned United Progressive Party (UPP) figures for discouraging attendance at the recent National Day of Prayer, calling the move divisive.
Speaking on the Browne and Browne Show, Mr Browne said the event was intended as a unifying occasion to “give thanks and praise” and criticised the opposition for treating it as partisan. He added that opposition chairman D. Gisele Isaac had urged members not to participate, even though there was no formal party directiveBrowne and Browne Show.
The Prime Minister linked the discouragement to what he described as “hardcore hatred” among UPP supporters, which he argued is self-destructive. He urged politicians to focus on policy-based debate rather than vilification.
Recalling his own decade in opposition, Mr Browne said he never allowed personal attacks to stop him from maintaining relationships with rivals. He warned that unchecked hostility could inflame tensions and harm the country’s stability.
Framing love, unity and faith as antidotes to political polarisation, the Prime Minister appealed for a softening of rhetoric across the political divide. “We must fight hard for our country,” he said, “but we should never hate.”
