GENERAL SECRETARY of the Barbados Workers’ Union (BWU), Toni Moore, has a “newsflash” for outspoken Government minister Donville Inniss and those of a similar mind.

Speaking to hundreds of workers at Browne’s Beach at the May Day celebrations yesterday, Moore reminded Inniss, other Government ministers and those in Opposition that a “change is gonna come”, one way or another.

“When a minister of Government can declare his aversion and refusal to meet with a union body, if such a demand was made for an audience with him, we can’t feel comfort in the fact that a certain keptocracy is not taking over our democracy. I want to issue a newsflash to all those members of Government and the Opposition who share that kind of philosophy, and that kind of thinking. A change is gonna come in your thinking, or you better find yourself in some other vocation.”

She told them that serving the people required engaging the people. (YB)
