Luncheon’s snap elections remark a fishing expedition – Granger

Leader of the Opposition David Granger said he does not regard the statement by Head of the Presidential Secretariat Dr Roger Luncheon about wanting to run off snap elections as serious and he called it piscatory.

Luncheon was said to have made the statement during his post-Cabinet press briefing held at the Office of the President on Thursday.

“Dr Luncheon is on a fishing expedition. He is just fishing for a response. I don’t regard it as a serious statement of government policy and I think the statement was made to put an idea in the public domain, to elicit some response to see whether there is going to be a favourable or unfavourable response,” Granger said
