Who these folk should vote for ()

I am not telling anybody how to vote in the upcoming general election; but I am offering the suggestion which party to vote for. The following categories of people should vote for the Democratic Labour Party.

All those who have benefited from free secondary and tertiary education. All those whose children have benefited from it also.

All those whose children can and are travelling free on the Transport Board buses.

All those who can and are now owning their Government-built houses.

All those who are travelling freer because of the roundabouts at Coral Ridge, Boarded Hall, Orange Hill, Jackson and soon Redman’s Village. All of those householders who are travelling freer on newly paved roads (in Grazettes, in Brittons Hill, in St Philip, to name just a few).

All those owners and employees of Jada, Rotherley, Innotech, Arthur’s Construction, MTW and other construction companies that are still working on Government contracts, not given to overseas contractors.

All those small hoteliers who are benefiting from Government grants.

All of those landowners who have been given a tax amnesty.

All of those Crop Over revellers who will travel mainly unharassed at Foreday Morning, Bridgetown Market and Grand Kadooment . . . .

The list goes on . . . .

You forgot to make clear, Madam, that there is no such thing as "free". Those who will be paying for all the current "freeness", and live in fear of even more to be "spread around" may have a quite different point of view. So keep talking…you have almost convinced me...

Some ministers of religion have said a resounding no to same-sex marriages being performed in Barbados. Do you agree?
