KINGSTON, Jamaica — Everald Warmington, the Member of Parliament for St Catherine South Western representing the Jamaica Labour Party (JLP), has once again drawn attention for his unconventional behavior during the official swearing-in ceremony for MPs on Thursday. Warmington arrived at Gordon House independently, bypassing the customary procession from the Bustamante Industrial Trade Union (BITU) headquarters on Duke Street, where his JLP colleagues traditionally gather. Upon arrival, Warmington took his oath of office but conspicuously avoided engaging with other parliamentarians. He notably refrained from shaking hands with House Speaker Juliet Holness, Prime Minister Dr. Andrew Holness, or any members from either political faction. Immediately after being sworn in, he exited the chamber, leaving representatives from both sides visibly stunned. This incident follows a public apology issued by Warmington in July for using inappropriate language during a political rally in Westmoreland. At the time, Prime Minister Holness emphasized the need for candidates to uphold the highest standards of conduct, while the People’s National Party (PNP) condemned Warmington’s remarks and urged law enforcement to intervene.
