Warm congratulations to Prime Minister @miaamormottley on earning a third consecutive mandate from the people of Barbados. This renewed confidence reflects a strong democratic endorsement. Wishing you continued success in service to Barbados and the wider Caribbean. 🇧🇧

An SOE is not a crime plan. A temporary drop in murders is not success. Success is safety, arrests, charges and cases before the courts. After 9 1/2 years in Opposition, where is the crime plan, Madam Prime Minister?

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL MEN’S DAY” Today, we recognise the men and boys who contribute to our society, often without thanks, and too often while carrying silent burdens.

This Divali, as we light our deyas and watch darkness give way to light, let’s remember its deeper meaning, the triumph of good over evil, truth over deceit, humility over pride. May our leaders act with wisdom, transparency & courage. Peace begins with us. 🪔🇹🇹🙏🏽🫶 #Divali2025

When citizens lose their lives and questions go unanswered, the government’s first duty is to seek the truth and speak it plainly. T&T deserves clarity not silence. To read my full column click here 👇 guardian.co.tt/article/the-s…

When a leader starts comparing themselves to God, that’s narcissism on steroids. Public office was never meant to be a throne, and the people are not subjects to be ruled. True leadership is rooted in humility and service, not arrogance and self-praise.

A 6-month OFAC licence is not a deal it’s just permission to talk. Yet the UNC, like the PNM before them, hides the details from the people. No transparency, no trust. Publish the terms, show the plan, and let the people judge. #Accountability

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal. If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist. If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian. If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.

This Republic Day, it was ordinary citizens who showed us what courage and sacrifice really mean. The question is whether governance can rise to their example. Are we a Republic in deed, or just in name? Read more in my column in today’s Guardian. 🙏🏽

If the SOE cannot protect our children, who is it protecting? The barbaric killing of 12-year-old Mariah has shaken us all to the core. 💔 We need urgent, visible, measurable action-patrols in every community, working lights & cameras, accountability. Not tomorrow. Now.

This Sunday, I share my thoughts on the human cost of the government’s mass firing of CEPEP, Reforestation, and URP workers, while taxpayers foot a $19.2 million annual bill in salaries for the largest Cabinet in our country’s history. guardian.co.tt/article/the-h…

Removing 200 illegal immigrants today won’t solve the problem. 200 more will cross tomorrow unless we secure our porous borders.

After all the Gov’t noise about a “forex cartel,” the Central Bank Governor, who himself was once Minister of Finance under the PP, says there’s no evidence one exists. So was this just another political distraction while citizens still struggle for US$?

In today’s Sunday Guardian column, I discuss the challenges facing our region. Safety and stability start with a strong crime plan at home and a clear foreign policy. What do you believe should be the government’s priority?
