Barbados has officially joined the ranks of politically polarized societies. Like the fly on the wall the blogmaster has been observing the quality of debate on a myriad of issues and as a commenter on BU would describe it, the signal noise is deafening and the divisiveness is real.
Permit the blogmaster be clear, citizens of a country giving vent to issues is expected in a working democracy. It is better than throwing rock stones at those you disagree with or worse, engaging in violent criminal acts by resorting to guns, knives and other weapons. Although Barbados has been experiencing an increase in gun play, it is mainly associated with the ‘underworld’ and has not yet permeated mainstream affairs. Again allow the blogmaster be clear, increase criminal activity in any country is linked to underlying societal issues. A subject for another day.
The challenge beginning to emerge for Barbadians is the inability of stakeholders to robustly debate issues to reach consensus or what is popularly referred to as a win win position. One may argue significant investment in education over the years should have steered us away from the current trajectory. A path that is leading to nowhere fast. Is it we are failing in the area of informal education?
All those years ago Gabby penned the popular ‘One Day Coming Soon’ banned by the Tom Adams government. Prophetically the people are waking up and we are witnessing a spiking in the lack of trust directed at the establishment – the political directorate, media, police, justice system; LAWYERS to name a few. What is creating the problem for the establishment: as it continues to sleep more citizens are waking up from various states of ignorance adding to the increase in signal noise.
Unfortunately until the political directorate makes the adjustment to align with the expectations of an ‘awoke’ people, fallout from the signal noise will continue to be a drag on any effort to move the country forward.
We have the current situation of the Mottley government forcing through the transition to a Republic. Although there is anecdotal acceptance the time has come and gone to replace the foreign ceremonial head of state with a local, there is concern enough was not done to engage Barbadians to gain buy in to the process AND if this was the plan from reading the 2018 BLP manifesto, there was enough time to have updated the Constitution in order to avoid criticism in some quarters that the piecemeal implementation does not fit an educated country well. What we see playing out as Walter Blackman accurately observed is a Barbados Labour Party government concluding it has the political capital to do as it wishes largely because of a weak political opposition.
The message in the clip never grows old and fits Barbados like a glove. Unfortunately the current predicament we find ourselves cannot be solved in weeks, months or even a few years. Good governance and concomitant success does not happen by accident, it has to be led and planned.
Watch the from 4m:50s of the video.

Today is the day when Lee Kuan Yew, the misguidance of an idiot, Walter Blackman, and the “noise” from your confederate Halsall are inserted. Not a word about what people like Varoufakis and others have had to say about these weighty issues. Only neo-liberals and capitalists allowed!
Proving, “he who controls the printed page controls the thinking of the age”
We would have thought that the Singapore Model had outlived its usefulness, given the suffocation of Barbados by the OECD, amongst other more modern colonial acts.
That you might have known that the accidental success of Singapore could not have replaced the aims of the Bandung
Conference of 1955.
That Singapore could not have forever sustained a “development” model largely based of false economies. You should ask yourself why after 60 years it has failed to replicate itself elsewhere.
Lee Yuan Yew’s references to Communism and Nazism are imprecise and self serving to like minds trying to argue that neo-liberalism. and capitalism have not reached a clearly defined end point. When indeed it capitalism which directly gave birth to both Communism and Nazism, before 1919 and again recently.
Weeee know clearly that when organizing principles reach such late stages there can be no revival. So this happy talk you have sought to unearth from Yew is irrelevant.
To raise a long dead man to give voice to realities to which his thinking has no application whatsoever is bereft of reason and locates you within the most dangerous kind of desperation as you gleefully ignore a growing body of scholarship which continues to struggle with current realities.
That Walter Blackman could be presumed to have anything meaningful to contribute is similarly as misguided. A man who just a few years ago did not even recognized how markets were financialized as he embarked on the regurgitation of the now unworkable Keynesian economic theory, as if to impress for political office.
Halsall, likes talking about “noise” in a derisive fashion. For him, and you, there are no historical or environmental causative reasons, beyond “noise” to explain any of these phenomena occurring in our world. Like vested interests, both you and he, find it easy to place blame on noise makers like Pacha.
Your abnormal normalcy is dead. A new world is coming and nothing Lee Yuan Yew, Halsall, Walter Blackman nor you have to say can extend the lifespan of current criminal impositions.
@Pacha
You are the misguided one. The reason the blogmaster pointed to that part of Lee Kuan Yewâs message is because it stresses what is required from leaders to successfully oversea transformative change. Nothing to so with following a Singapore model. Listen to the message and forget playing the man or listening to your self talk.
DAVID
YOU ARE IOO% CORRECT
IT SEEMS THAT WE IN BARBADOS HAVE COPIED WHOLESALE THE AMERICAN ETHOS WHERE EVERYTHING SEEMS TO REVOLVE ON POLITICS NONSTOP, 24/7/365.

Not every leader gonna be right in their decision making
But at least their leadership and policies should exhibit and exemplify a masterfull skill in ethics and morals
Then no one can suspect them of guidingthe people down a wrong path
They are leaders in history who have so done and their names are enshrined in history
These leaders laid the building blocks for ethics and morals and which havev lead to good progress and a quality of life for the people
Unless the Lord our God built the House
They Labour in Vain that built it

David
In the first place what you called the transformation of Yew cannot happen in today’s context. His was a world of the 1960s. Even the presumption that any leaders anywhere can transform anything anymore is being questioned.
Meaning that circumstances seem to be overwhelming efforts to control outcomes.
We’ve listened to Yew, but that was unnecessary. Did a paper on his policies two decades ago. Your trite suggestion cannot to us apply.

The basics of good leadership does not change. You have a vision and demonstrate qualities of a leader to inspire those in your charge.
David
Permit our profound disagreement with Willian Skinner, on this matter, to extend to you.
This writer does not subscribe to what you call leadership.
But if there is to be such a thing it should be organic, changing in construction over time, as consistent with requirements.
For the record restate your unvarnished definition of leadership?
David
There are many definitions in the literature, over centuries, developing out of militarism, largely.
This writer has no preferences. As unrepentant anarchist, it is posited that the people should lead themselves.
But such notions, for you, represent a bridge tooooo far.
RE Anybody, anywhere, who has an “identifier, an electronic footprint, could be precisely marketed to.
BUT MUST THEY? WHY?
WHY ALSO MUST ONE HAVE TO HEAR YOUR PHONE INCESSANTLY WITH UNSOLICITED CALLS.
THAT IS NOT MARKETING – AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED — THAT IS AN ANNOYANCE IN MY VIEW
I HOPE THAT SUCH SO CALLED MARKETING DOES NOT HAPPEN IN BIM TODAY
IS THIS RUBBISH THAT WHICH IS CALLED PROGRESS?
RE The basics of good leadership does not change. You have a vision and demonstrate qualities of a leader to inspire those in your charge.
EXACTLY. THIS IS WHAT I HAVE GLEANED FROM DEEPLY DELVING INTO STUDYING THE BIBLICAL BOOKS OF NEHEMIAH AND EZRA. ESPECIALLY NEHEMIAH I-3
RE the people should lead themselves.
THAT THAT IDEA IS FALSE CAN BE SEEN THROUGH STUDYING HUMAN HISTORY ACCURATELY NOT WITH A BETZPAENIC BRAIN WHOSE CELLS HAVE THEN IN ADDITION UNDERGONE METAPLASTIC CHANGE.
Good leaders also need excellent vision. Granted leadership is a skill set as well as vision is also a skill set. A good leader can lead you astray or march you around a circuit that effectively gets you nowhere over time. Mr. Hilter will have been seen as a great leader if he had won the war he started. Also, they say that history is often written or dictated by the victor. So many great leaders probably are not recognized because they were losers or on the wrong side of the battle/war or history.
It takes much more than a great leader or a great visionary. What Barbados needs is a team if that is what it takes to move us ALL forward to a much better place than where we are now. We also need to jettison the idea that this skill set has to be packaged/embodied into a single human being or entity.
Just thinking out aloud.

If Geogie Porgy knew what anarchism, as a political philosophy was, he would not open his bad-breadth mouth to talk shiite.
At its centre it represent changeable principles including one supposedly similar to that held dear by pagans like himself – free moral agency!
That means anarchists do not rely on anybody, a foolish book, particular schools of thought, hierchical systems, leadership of any kind, etc
Indeed, there are small similarities between anarchism and the political currents in the USA which he is submissive to.
Trump would have made a Good Leader but he fell short in ethics and moral standing
God placed him in a position of leadership to exposed his moral and ethical failures for all to see
What happened to Trump is as close a repeat of What happened to Paul on his way to Damascus where his own failures blinded him and God had to step in to save him from his eventual down fall
Trump Damascus moment would arrive
God did set him on such a path
He would have â¦but but butâ¦

“A new world is coming”
it will more than likely be in its second century before many who are around now notice anytthing, meaning they will NEVER KNOW……like they have never known most things in the last half century..
“it is posited that the people should lead themselves.”
they should, the people are much more intelligent than the talking (lying) heads they elect and pay a salary to..time for that to evolve.
Some leaders are progressives and despite some hiccups automatically know what is needed….others are just misleaders who just cannot get anything right and never will..
this is an Afrikan country..
“Revision period may accommodate Rastas, hemp and medical use
Robbertze said the Department of Justice firmly believed that the decision to decriminalize cannabis was the correct one, but that severe limitations needed to be put in place in order to prevent dealing in cannabis and harm to adolescents. He suggested changes be made to the Bill during the review period, including exemptions for:
Religious freedom (he mentioned the Rastafarian community)
Self-medical use (possibly an increase in the amount that can be grown and possessed
Hemp (to be classified as an agricultural crop)”

I have read line by line of the 2018 BLP Manifesto, and find zero mention of Barbados becoming a Republic. ZERO.
Yet , I heard Indra Weir state that it was in their Manifesto, and that the Public voted them in based on the promises made in their Manifesto. He said so forcefully, at least 4 times on Brasstacks yesterday, Nov 26 th.
It’s unbelievable. Alternative Facts maybe?

RE Not every leader gonna be right in their decision making TRUE
AND THE ONLY LEADERS WHO WERE right in their decision IN BARBADOS THAT YOU RECOGNIZE IN YOUR SOVERIGN OMNISCENCE WERE DLP LEADERS.
But at least their leadership and policies should exhibit and exemplify a masterfull skill in ethics and morals
DID BARROW, SANDIFORD AND FUMBLE OR THOMPSON exemplify a masterfull skill in ethics and morals? WERE THEY NOT ALL FLAWED AND IMPERFECT?.
Then no one can suspect them of guidingthe people down a wrong path
HAVE ANY LEADER YOU KNOW BESIDES THE GOOD SHEPHERD ALWAYS GUIDED FOLK DOWN THE CORRECT PATH?
They are leaders in history who have so done and their names are enshrined in history
ARE YOU REFERRING TO FUMBLE AND THE LAST DLP ADMIN?

HELP US HERE WE LOOKING FOR GUIDANCE.
Unless the Lord our God built the House They Labour in Vain that built it
THIS IS A GREAT BIBLE VERSE BUT WAS NOT FUMBLE A TEACHER IN HIS CHURCH GROUP?
DID HE ASK THE LORD TO BUILD THE BARBADOS HOUSE IN HIS TENURE?
DID HE AND HIS COMPANIONS NOT LEAD BAJANS TO Labour in Vain DURING HIS TENURE THAT MIA WILL NOT BE ABLE TO REVERSE THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE PATHS HE TOOK?
YOU NEED TO THROW AWAY YOUR GLASSES CAUSE YOU NOT SEEING CORRECTLY.
IS IT NOT TRUE THAT THE LAST DLP COULD BE DESCRIBED AS DEVOTED FOLLOWERS OF THE BILICAL MAXIM THAT WHERE THERE IS NO VISION THE PEOPLE PERISH.
DID THEY NOT PROVE MOST CONCLUSIVELY THAT THIS BIBLE VERSE IS SOUND DOCTRINE THAT CAN NOT BE REFUTED?
YOU MAY CONTINUE TO BARK AND BRAY……..BUT YOU AND YOUR DLP ILK WILL DIE IN DESPAIR, AND YOUR SILLY UNENDING DIATRIBE WHERE YOU ARE OFTEN VERY WRONG IS NOT GOINGTO CHANGE ONE IOTA.

The PM said that the older generation were creating a divide between themselves and the youth
My observation in Barbados is wealth inequality a greater than greater divide which at some time would catapult Barbados into chaos and mayhem as the eyes of the youth are awaken to truth and fortright knowledge of knowing how inappropriate economic disparity has cut them out from becoming part of wealth and financially secure
Right now Barbados govt is preparing a plan in the charter
which will give the power brokers more control and outside influencers a say on how moral and ethics should be incorporated into Barbados social landscape
Tell the blog how the Barbados Charter which is a non binding document in law can achieve what you suggest? We are open to learn. Sometimes you need to hush.

The Charter cost plenty money to be laid out and the blp yardfowls want all to belive after much hard word and spend the Charter would be balled up and thrown in the garbage for one of them Chinese garbage trucks to pick up
What a sorry lot to think such would happen
Atherley was on the ball as he called out Mia for her deceit and hypocrisy on tabling the Charter then trying to react in a manner which would dispel whatever concerns were found in the Charter which needed to be scrutinized

With respect. You may own this blog an apology.
Remember when this writer objected to the notion that the elected dictator, Mia Mpttley, broke the Westminster tradition when she embarked on the unprecedented action of a second throne speech thereby breaching a social contract with the people. And you persistently batted away the arguments made.
If what the blogger above is reporting is true, that the republic agenda is now being defended as having already gotten the electoral approval by the people of Barbados based on said original manifesto, subsequently subjected to a second throne speech. The above blogger has also asserted that nothing about republicanism was in such a manifesto.
Maybe, you could tell the blog in which political or legal universe could both a rejection of the original manifesto be legal and it’s acceptance when convenient..
@Pacha
Maybe that is the point if it was not mentioned then there is no obligation by the party to deliver on earlier promise?
Had another listen to the Friday talk show, the point Weir made is that no mention was made of going referendum in the throne speech or manifesto.
