The future is not as bright as Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley would have Barbadians believe, Leader of the Opposition Bishop Joseph Atherley declared on Saturday.
In fact, he said Barbados was “still on the brink” and many people were of the belief that the storm clouds were gathering.
The Opposition Leader made the comments during a press conference at his office in Parliament Buildings, in response to Mottley’s Prime Ministerial Statement on December 18.
In her 60-minute address to Parliament, Mottley listed the achievements of her Government in the past six months and said Barbadians could “take it easy” during the Christmas season since the island was once again “punching above its weight”. But Atherley dismissed this. (HLE)
