Both Opposition parties have denied any connection with leaflets distributed in Hamilton attacking the United Bermuda Party.

The one-page leaflets were stuck on car windshields on Monday and Tuesday. One said it was time for a change of Government.

The other, under a tied ribbon drawn on pink paper, said UBP stood for "Useless Broken Promises.'' Stamped on it were messages like: "A United Bermuda -- Rich United Against the Workers''; "Club Med (Big and Empty)''; and "Kinder More Caring Government -- Kinder to Who?'' Progressive Labour Party Leader Mr. Frederick Wade said: "As far as I know, they're not PLP.

"I saw it like you did,'' Mr. Wade said. "I found one on my car.'' While not claiming responsibility, Mr. Wade said he thought the pink ribbon brochure was "very accurate.'' "We're not campaigning in that vein,'' PLP campaign co-chairman Sen. Alex Scott said. "I have to believe it's an individual effort.'' NLP chairman Mr. Geoff Parker said he saw the flyers being stuffed on cars around town on Monday night. "It's definitely not the National Liberal Party,'' he said. "We don't want to cause litter.'' UBP executive officer Mr. Joe Gibbons said pink ribbons also surfaced last summer. "Although I have no idea who is putting them out, they are clearly campaign or election related,'' he said.

Mr. Gibbons described the leaflets as "unsubstantiated garbage,'' and said those responsible were "too embarrassed to take credit for it.'' OCTOBER 1993 ELECTION
