Both at fault

Blame both the Democratic Labour Party and the Barbados Labour Party.
The first governor of the Central Bank of Barbados Sir Courtney Blackman says they failed to warn Barbadians from the outset about the cold, hard facts of the international recession. That is, it was “severe” and as a result they should expect some “pain”.
He made this criticism in an interview with the SATURDAY SUN yesterday.
Sir Courtney also said he did not think the economic situation that developed as a result had been “managed well”.
