Political Scientist Peter Wickham is questioning the decision to have acting President of the Democratic Labour Party Andre Worrell appointed the new Opposition Senator in the Upper House.
Reacting to Mr. Worrell being sworn in this morning to replace Tricia Watson, Mr. Wickham wants to know why Political Leader Ralph Thorne did not choose a female instead.
Mr. Wickham adds that replacing Ms. Watson with another female would have been the ideal move considering that her removal from the Senate would have triggered controversial debate.
