Senator Abka Fitz-Henley has strongly criticized the president of the People's National Party, Mark Golding, for his support of democratic socialism, recalling the economic difficulties of the 1970s. He emphasized that this ideology led to shortages, currency devaluation, and rising living costs. Fitz-Henley stated that Jamaica cannot afford to relive these crises and advocated for an economic management focused on growth and improving living conditions.
