Dr Gerard Jean- Jacques who is a doctorate in political sciences and is the permanent secretary of the office of Prime Minister of Dominica wrote that in the early 2000s UWP publicly criticized the then Prime Minister Pierre Charles as a “carpenter” prime minister who, because he did not have a university degree, was perceived by the UWP as a lesser mortal than his peers in the Caribbean.

Dr Gerard Jean- Jacques further mentioned specific figures of requests which were brought in by UWP leader Lennox Linton to the Finance Minister for the wellbeing of the people of country, he emphasised that; A leader who does not have a record of working for and on behalf of Dominicans in the last few crises for the island over the past 5 years; whose known record of seeking help for his constituents is limited to two requests to the Minister of Finance since 2014; who publicly disrespects his colleagues; who consistently has a kneejerk response of hostile criticism, untruths, and near treasonous activities to key Government policies; a leader who has repeatedly and consistently displayed his ignorance of how government works; etc could have been elected by his party as a potential head of government of the Commonwealth of Dominica.
