PNP President Mark Golding has removed Dennis Gordon from both the Public Accounts Committee and the Shadow Cabinet — a move calibrated not by legal necessity, but by the harder arithmetic of political optics in a party that needs to own the accountability narrative.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, April 5, 2026 - Calvin G.
