The governing party in Antigua and Barbuda has ruled out forming a unity government to try to end political uncertainty in the country.
A High Court judge last week nullified the election to parliament of the Prime Minister, Baldwin Spencer, and two other ministers in his United Progressive Party (UPP) government.
The ruling was suspended to allow an appeal.
The suggestion of a coalition administration came from the UPP\'s Wilmoth Daniel, who resigned as deputy prime minister last year after a fall out with Mr. Spencer.
In a statement, the party said the option of a coalition government with the opposition Antigua Labour Party will never be an option for the UPP.
