The government of Barbados has been quick to issue the order to dock the pay of teachers who responded to the call from the Barbados Union of Teachers (BUT) to attend meetings during school hours between April 29 and May 4, 2016.

Are the former presidents Jones and Best of the BUT uncomfortable in the role?
