An Anglican cleric wants more than just opposition politics from the Barbados Labour Party (BLP).
Speaking at a BLP?service of thanksgiving at St Mary’s Church yesterday morning, priest Marcus Lashley wants to see more of a bipartisan approach in Parliament and greater dialogue between the BLP and the ruling Democratic Labour Party for the good of the nation.
He reminded the Barbados Labour Party that being in opposition did not mean they were not to give leadership to the nation.
“The sheer numbers after the general election say quite clearly to me that the people of this country have an expectation of you that is large,”?he said.
