“I don’t think this just signals that election is coming, it speaks to the fact that the PLP is presenting to you our story, our record, our progress but also how are we going to build on that; so its not just what we’ve done, its saying this is what we plan on doing to advance our country even further”

There was no impression that there would be any of the kinds of surprises that these events can sometimes bring. Instead, it appears it will be about the party’s track record.
