Stalwart United Workers Party supporter Peter Josie is facing more back-lash for his controversial remarks on a local radio show. Josie, who says the Prime Minister is more likeable because of his lighter skin tone, also took a swipe at a teenaged executive member of National Students Council for condemning Deputy Commissioner Milton Desir’s disturbing threat to “lock up” students stopped by police after school. Josie accuses the NSC of being an off-shoot of the Labour Party. President of the National Youth Council Niyus Alfred says NSC members have been targeted by cyber bullies because of Josie’s comments and demands the UWP spokesman to issue an apology.
