On tonight's news, you've already seen the rare show of bipartisanship at today's Senate meeting. But that wasn't the only news coming out of Belmopan.
President of the Senate, Lee Mark Chang also stepped down. He's going to run for the UDP Caribbean shores convention which is a no-no for a step which should be - at least not overtly political. So he gave a farewell:...
Hon. Lee Mark Chang, Senate President
"As you already I have declared my interest in running in the division in the next general election and as such this is likely to be my last occasion as president of the senate. A post I've held since 2015. Without a doubt my time in the senate has been instrumental in furthering my commitment to the people of Belize and I now feel that I can best accomplish this by serving the people of Caribbean Shores directly as a standard bearer of the United Democratic Party and in the future possible the area representative. It has been an honour and a privilege to have serve in this illustrious house in such a distinguish post that I feel even more honoured, because I have done so alongside so eminent senators."
