POLITICAL Ombudsman Bishop Herro Blair has reissued a call for political parties to exercise more responsibility in how their supporters conduct themselves.
With the election campaign heating up, political flags have been popping up on utility poles in several communities.
Evidence of this was seen during an Observer tour of several inner-city communities in Kingston today.
Blair says party supporters should refrain from displaying political flags in communities and any other overt acts of intimidation.
"This is something that will have to be addressed and where they are found to cause intimidation, they should be removed," said Blair.
