That earlier legal move, filed by members Gladstone Solomon and Trevor Gardiner, effectively halted the party’s fourth executive elections on Sunday. Solomon and Gardiner filed a High Court injunction seeking to prevent the executive elections from proceeding. After Sunday’s aborted proceedings the party scheduled a special meeting for yesterday to discuss the next move. That meeting did not take place, however, as Jack met with lawyers instead.
Sources say neither was a new date set for the crisis meeting. Reports are that yesterday there was a virtual shouting match among members both for and against Jack. “It was horrible, the worst I have seen in years,” another source said. Sources say the party remains divided and many want Jack to step down, especially after the TOP’s humiliating 12-nil defeat by the People’s National Movement in January’s Tobago House of Assembly election. Jack was unavailable for comment yesterday as he was meeting with lawyers.
