He was emphatic that voters are less keen on political parties that focus on their internal processes other than the public interest.

"I came through the streets today and I saw so many posters ,posters of the wonderful candidates here in today's conference," he said.

"But I had to reflect. I think I saw more posters than there are delegates  here in the conference I wondered, ‘is this really the best use of our resources?’" he quizzed.

"I have a lesson from the conservative party, which is voters like parties which focus on the voters. Voters are less keen on parties that focus on their internal processes."

The NPP is voting today to elect new executives of the party.
