“He is doing the PNM’s job of trying to destroy the UNC. I don’t think he’ll succeed. He’s obviously sold out and severed himself from the UNC.” Panday said the party would now take whatever steps it thought appropriate.

Panday shed little light on how he saw this evening’s meeting of the UNC national executive to discipline of the RamJackG trio but whom might not attend. A spokesman for Warner rejected Panday’s allegations.

“Mr Warner is not and has never been an agent of the PNM. He is a member of the UNC and continues to be a member of the UNC because he believes in what the party stands for.”

The source said Warner believes in what the UNC represents but thinks it has strayed from its founding principles of equality and freedom. Warner wants to change the UNC’s current structure which the source said has relegated the party to the Opposition.
