PNM Criticizes Government’s Stand Your Ground Consultations

The opposition party, PNM, has expressed concerns over the government’s handling of the Stand Your Ground legislation. They describe the ongoing consultations as more politically motivated than inclusive. Opposition members claim that the government seems to have already made decisions, negating the essence of true consultation. MP Kareem Marcelle, vocal on the issue, stresses the seriousness of the matter and urges for a more sober dialogue and genuine public input instead of political grandstanding. PNM affirms it will conduct its own consultations and leverage Freedom of Information requests to push for transparency.
