Golding: I miss Portia
Sep 18th, 2022 | Category: EDITORS' FORUM | 5:51#JamaicaGleaner #MarkGolding #PNP #PortiaSimpsonMiller #EditorsForum SEPTEMBER 18, 2022: Charismatic retired People’s National Party (PNP) President Portia Simpson Miller is sorely missed by the man she appointed a senator in 2007 and who now heads the 84-year-old political movement she then led. Simpson Miller, whose political capital was lauded in a recent documentary titled ‘Girl from Woodhall’ on Television Jamaica (TVJ), was incomparable on the political hustings and had the capacity to rally Comrades at their darkest moments, dating back to the party’s 1980 general election wipeout. Affirming that the PNP was in good standing in spite of her absence, Mark Golding said Simpson Miller and the aura she emanates are missed today.
