Angela Brown Burke now Bunting’s campaign director

Dr Angela Brown Burke is now the campaign director for People’s National Party (PNP) presidential contender Peter Bunting.

News of the appointment has coincided with public comments following the leaking of a letter by Brown Burke’s husband, Paul Burke, a former PNP general secretary, who said his wife deceived him by deciding to support Bunting.

Burke, who is supporting incumbent Dr Peter Phillips, said that although it’s his wife’s right to support whoever she chooses, she had consistently said she was not in favour of Bunting.

Brown Burke’s St Andrew South West constituency has one of the highest number of delegates in the PNP.

Last Friday, Bunting’s camp announced that Brown Burke was among 12 people who nominated him to unseat Phillips in the September 7 presidential election.
