Opposition Mia Mottley summoned

A dissident group of five Barbados Labour Party Members of Parliament has summoned the embattled Leader of the Opposition Mia Mottley to a meeting on Monday October 18 to review her leadership of the party.



The group has been pushing to have former Prime Minister Owen Arthur replace Mottley.



The MP’s met on Tuesday to decide Mottley’s fate and later told reporters that they had full and frank discussions on the leadership of the party.



However, Mottley took over the leadership of the party after it was trounced by David Thompson’s Democratic Labour Party in the 2008 general election.



Meanwhile, Mottley says she found out about the letter inviting her to Monday’s meeting on Facebook before she received it.



She has declined to say whether she will be attending the meeting.
