Prime Minister Mia Mottley, Macron and neoliberal globalisation

By Tee White

Prime Minister Mia Mottley (l) and President Emmanuel Macron (r)

Barbadian Prime Minister, Mia Mottley, has emerged on the international scene as one of the most visible supporters of the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact, which recently concluded in Paris. The summit, which was hosted by French president Emmanuel Macron, took place from 22-23 June under the twin themes of building a new consensus for a more inclusive international financial system and advancing towards achieving the United Nations Agenda 2030 sustainable development goals.

These goals, set in 2015, were a continuation of the UN’s Millennium Goals, adopted in 2000. Both sets of goals are presented as measures to end global poverty. However, in contrast to the high sounding UN aspirations and conferences, a large part of the world’s population remain trapped in both poverty and inequality.

    All comments on the net are captured for analysis like a google search.

    All wars have multiple agendas such as spying on people, weaponisation of technologies, profits, global politics, getting a foothold in remote regions.

    Gaining a Foothold in power influence business
    Is Mia being used by the West as a stepping stone to Africa.
    She is open minded about dealing with China and the rise of the East.
    She seems to stand for Social Justice.

    Neoliberalism is contemporarily used to refer to market-oriented reform policies such as “eliminating price controls, deregulating capital markets, lowering trade barriers” and reducing, especially through privatization and austerity, state influence in the economy.

    Africa and the BRICS: a Win-Win Partnership?
    The BRICS are now Africa’s largest trading partners.

    Legacy of colonialism in Africa has divided and ear-marked the resource rich Continent into British and French territories.

    China is a significant source of investment for African development.

    Russia seems to be popular with as a strategic ally in Africa in places like South Africa and Burkina Faso. The latest coup in Burkina Faso saw young people waving Russian flags in the streets of the capital, Ouagadougou (2022).

    The Western propaganda machine is cock blocking these relationships.

    Say what you will about Mia, she is speaking out. Mottley: Caricom integration incomplete
    THE CARIBBEAN COMMUNITY has been a humanising influence on the rest of the world, Barbados Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley said yesterday.
    Speaking to reporters, Mottley said CARICOM had been capable of bringing about “appreciative development for hundreds of thousands of our people”.
    “Even though we have challenges ahead of us . . . the dream [of integration] is still very much alive. But at least we know we are going in the right direction,” she said.
    Former Commonwealth Secretary General and author of the Time For Action report on CARICOM integration, Sir Shridath Ramphal, who was at Chaguaramas 50 years ago when the Treaty of Chaguaramas was signed, said 50 years later the region was still hoping for oneness “or do we write hoping for one ones. We are already one . . . . One people . . . . But our CARICOM unity is incomplete. We have,
    let us admit it, we have allowed our separateness too much space. We have missed out too often on the time for action. There have been too many pauses, too much accord in principle but not enough resolve in action. Still at 50 years, our Chaguaramas dream of integration remains a dream,” he said.
    He said CARICOM was “very worthily helping the world to survive. But we are faltering among ourselves. You are not underlings, nor were those who sat there for the last 50 years,” he said. He said the hope is in ourselves and men at some time are masters of their fates.
    “Let that time come for CARICOM. Let the real of Chaguaramas be fulfilled. Let your visit today to the shrine of integration signify an intent for progressive action,” he said.

    Oh i can discourse on caricom’s REFUSAL to integrate….they are all crabs in a barrel…lording it over little begging borrowng dependent fiefdoms just because they were GIVEN control over the people…they are worthless, no use to those they tricked into voting for them, that’s the bottomline ..

    ..Empire, not backward powerless them…and their small island bottomfeeding…will have to sort that out…the corrupt and powerful foolish parlisment bums, never will..

    Right now they are grabbing at footholds to commit BIGGER anti-human crimes…they .know their dummy Slaves in their dependent state cant see and wont stop them…but everyone else SEES THEM as clear as day…and will…

    Fine one to talk after sitting as caricom chair for 6 months and setting up strawberry slavery for the young people in Barbados and the region.to trap them in UK and EU…..videos still available…wicked.

    MAM is on target more often than she isn’t. She is playing the likes of Macron well.
    Shoving their rhetoric back at them.
    Macron has a whole set of issues he would dearly like to pawn off to others. If MAM helps him, while helping herself, all the power to her.

    I know that I say a lot, but I am fully aware of my impotence/lack of power.
    Hopefully Mia has her own metrics and knows the limit of her power. The acclaims of hangers-on and party faithful are not a useful measure of anything.

    Stop Mia’s Messaging Machine

    I se that some are proclaiming the death of Ronnie O. They even have their desired candidates. My one comment to the DLP faithful is this..

    If BLP supporters/party faithul/pundits pick your leader for you then that will gaurantee a next five years in the wilderness for the DLP.

    The questions to ask are these:
    Who is speaking?
    Who are they speaking for?
    Does it strength
    Does this unify the party or further divides it?
    Does it strengthen any of the players or renders them all weak?
    Does this assault benefits Mia?
    Is there and real/content or new matter in this political assault?

    Yes, my friends, read the articles but read them carefully. Then try to examine what motivates the article don’t fall for the Messianic Mia Messaging Machine (MMM). Mia’s Push of Political Propaganda to the Population (MPPPP) must be resisted.

    Well
    (1) We believe that the term Leader is more honorific and accurate and will now use it.

    (2) We have found it necessary to post a “where on earth is our Leader Mi? Our efforts to track this official has not met with success.

    (3) At 280,000 frequent flyer miles, Leader Mi has been to moon and back. Welcome home Leader Mi.

    Did you notice that I asked for hep and received an insult from the blogmaster. I also got an insult from our fearless leader office.

    Note from fearless Leader Office.
    “We know you are an idiot.. 280K miles is a one way trip to the moon”

    I need your help in choosing an appropriate response
    Me to leader Mi’s Office (help me choose one)
    (1) “Are you still there? If yes, don’t hurry back”
    or
    (2)Why didn’t you stay there? How did you get back here
    (3) 280,00 miles in the same direction should get you back here

    Is it possible that the blogmaster is in Leadewr Mi’s office sending out insults (even to his greatest fan). Seems as if he traded in
    “Put Barbados first”
    to
    “Put Leader Mi first”.

    Gotta go. Need to do something for someone that I fear much more than Leader Mi. Did I tell you we did 33 years a few days ago.

    Not Mottley directly

    But the West, Macron and the blatantly fascists White people therein who for decades pretended to be democratic, anti-fascist, when in truth and in fact White people have always been fascist as a dominant central tendency.

    Of course, the Black apologists, the pragmatic-nationalists, the racists here and others will be quick to cite the “exceptions” which prove the rule.

    That is for such lackeys. We deal woth general social tendencies, histories, etc.

    This is now of supreme importance. For as neoliberalism fails on the steppes of the Ukraine the West is supporting their defeated fascists to attack the largest nuclear power plant in Asia/Europe and set off what would be a dirty or nuclear BOMB, a false flag operation, and then blame it on Russia. The conditions for such have been prepared amongst the whore houses for media in the West.

    Unfortunately, the RF plays us no mind with our year’s long call for the application of that much needed remedy to these albinos. Putin keeps fecking around and around before he drives the big deckie in these devils, a priori!

    The Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant’s explosion is a desperate attempt by the West to save empire. But it shall fail.

    But as long as some island economic whore, Mottley, can try to pick the pocket of empire, even as it goes to hell. It’s just another day in paradise.

    Summary:


    After successfully weathering a series of shocks in recent years, the Barbadian economy is recovering strongly driven by a rebound in tourism and related activities. Public debt was brought back onto a downward trajectory and international reserves have risen to over 7 months of imports. The authorities are making good progress in implementing their updated Economic Recovery and Transformation (BERT) plan and their ambitious climate policy agenda. Following the completion of the 2018-22 Extended Fund Facility (EFF), a successor 36-month EFF arrangement along with a Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) were approved in December 2022. The authorities are strongly committed to strengthen fiscal sustainability, advance structural reforms, and increase resilience to climate change and natural disasters.

    Bank to have third deputy governor
    GOVERNMENT IS ENHANCING governance at the Central Bank of Barbados through provision of the appointment of a third deputy governor in an amendment to the 2020 Central Bank Act.
    While introducing the Central Bank (Amendment) Bill 2023 in the House of Assembly yesterday, Minister in the Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs Ryan Straughn described it as a measure to restore public confidence in the operation of the bank.
    The third deputy Central Bank governor will give support to the responsibilities of the governor and his two existing deputies.
    Straughn also drew attention to an amendment to increase the membership of the Central Bank board from five to six.
    He took advantage of yesterday’s debate to offer “public thanks and gratitude” to former Governor Cleviston Haynes for leading the bank through what he described as “a very, very critical time” in Barbados’ history prior to the Barbados Labour Party administration taking office.
    Substantive deputy
    “It could not have been
    easy, given what we are amending here to introduce, given that when he (Haynes) was substantively a deputy governor at the bank, that he was excluded from the operations of the bank in a way that you would appreciate, from an institutional perspective, really is not healthy.
    “Mr Haynes led the bank with grace and honour through a very turbulent time and it is important that as we seek to reassure Barbadians that as a Government, we have been committed to rebuilding the institutional strength that hitherto contributed positively to the development of Barbados,” Straughn said.
    He added that through the work being done at the bank, Government aimed to reassure the public that the Central Bank “is actually acting in the interest of the country as opposed to colluding with respect to the practice of fiscal indiscipline . . . .”
    One of the amendments stipulates that deputy governors should have the right to attend board meetings as ex-officio members without the right to vote, as part of ensuring that there is transparency and openness with respect to the operation of the bank. (GC)

    One here has previously compared Mottley with Putin as leaders on the same plane.

    Certainly, these are like chalk and cheese. Putin being the cheese, of course.

    This is where a financialized respectability gets you. To the uttering of such “punching above your weight” BS.

    These dog and pony shows with which Mottley has littered the world have no meaning beyond begging for a daily bread.

    While Putin is staying in Russia and almost singlehandedly rebuilding the the world free of the minstrels like Mottley and the foolishness she espouses.

    For when she is gone we’ll be no better off than we’ve been now the man who had us presuming to be punching in a different weight class was a reality, left us in the poor house with debt.

    While Vladimir Putin has already eclipsed all previous Russian leaders – ever, as measured by most metrics.

    Dont understand why they believe begging, borrowing and depending places them a cut about the rest…..the rest of what…..they can only be comparing themselves to historical failures…

    .none of them from the 1920s coming forward, barring the very few whom they either exiled or sent to early graves so they can rush to the front like crabs, have ever done anything breathtaking or exceptional…..they are only capable of the filthy legacies passed down and eagerly adopted as templates for the corrupt.

    Its amazing how the zionists could enter Jenin refugee camp. Injure 100s kill dozens. And hardly any coverage by the presstitutes.

    But Israel has carte blanche to do anything to the Palestinians. They are fascists covered by the fascist Western states.

    Even as Mottley has a photo op. We’ll bet that not one of these “important” world leaders would have been reminded of the illegalities of Israel, as under the Geneva Conventions.

    But some blood is more valuable than others. The blood of the Nazis in Ukraine, Western proxies, is far more valuable than that of Palestinian children being genocided on their own land. Under the misbelief that a real estate agent for a god gave those who constructive such false narratives the lands of the Palestinians people.

    We promise, recompense is coming! The Zionists shall be uprooted and left without branch or limb. We promise!

    Interesting titbit coming out of the just ended CARICOM conference. Chairman Skerritt announced that all categories of persons will be allowed to travel complete with contingent rights pending the clearing of legal hurdles. One of the challenges discussed in this forum over the years has been the inability to find cost effective travel solutions. It makes no sense freeing up travel and travel cost remains prohibitive. This is obviously a work in progress.

    How is the black belly sheep deal any different to any other PARRO selling his family’s furniture to a casual passerby in order to buy a snack box?
    PARROs are PARROs … whether they are call ‘gearbox’ or ‘brassbados’.
    The common denominator is the inability to maintain themselves – far less their family…. and thus having to depend on the goodwill of others, and on the largesse of strangers.

    Suffering is the inevitable end for ALL PARROs…..

    Begging is right!

    However, somebody will soon argue that that is an industry.

    And that the DLP could not even beg🤣

    Simply amazing. That at the most proficious time in at least 500 years.

    At a time when industrial capitalism goes up against financial capitalism

    When both systems are at daggers-drawn.

    The best a socalled well-educated populace could do is to beg its bread.

    If this is not the time to find a way to earn an honorable living in this world, then when?

    At some point the national of Barbados will be wiped out by the actions of the new financial architecture. But not even that will make sense because we’ll be right here again. Circa 1994?

    “Bajans suffering from mental illness need help.:

    From thy sat their foolish self on ITV London and said for the world and every slave master within shouting distance to hear that “Bajans are slaveminded”
    .
    I told them you do not broadcast that unless you are willing to arrange phychiatric and psychological help for the ENTIRE population who have needed that assistance for the last hundred years of CRIMES AGAINST THEMSELVES, perpetrated by BLACK FACES…..which followed CENTURIES of terrible crimes…but not them..too busy slave master shopping….

    .the worldstage beckoned since then so they can embarrass themselves instead of taking care of the people who VOTED for them and PAY their hefty salaries..

    Even i needed some small assistance with certain reveals in the last 4 years…but since wannabes dont think Black people can feel anything…this is the cascading effect from that neglect.

    It will get much worse because the issues were NEVER addressed.

    “But not even that will make sense because we’ll be right here again. Circa 1994?”

    That’s the year they need to return to…the year they maliciously inserted themselves in Empire…because they know why…apparently all they cultivated was the art of begging…although that environment has much much more to offer….and begging borrowing and dependency is not one…if you carry certain levels of intelligence…

    Now they realized they spent the last 3 decades screwing up SO BADLY…they are pretending to lead global movement…

    …thieves liars and frauds, pretenders and impostors cant mislead me anywhere…only Slaves as usual would fall for that idiocy.

    …i made my position very clear everywhere given my ancestry……and not about to reduce myself to that extremely low level now…or at any time in the future…a step down…
