Will Postponement Slacken Domestic and Int’l Support For Referendum?
posted (April 8, 2019)
The Prime Minister also spoke about cost today and slackening support from the international community - and we'll have those remarks later, but, first…here's what he had to say about the PUP's so far successful campaign to block the referendum:

Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow, Prime Minister
"All this is part of the Opposition's delay tactics and to my mind amount to an effort to stymie Belizean democracy, to deprive the people of this country of their right to choose. While I deplore what is happening on the part of the opposition and I should say what Michael Peyrefitte told me and what is given me leave to say that the leader of the opposition told him today "you can go to parliament to try to fix this" and it would appear, some people obviously think so, that it is an easy fix. But whatever you do we will oppose."
