BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, Nation News - FINALLY, AND within a day of each other, the respective manifestoes for the February 21 general election will be available to the public from the Opposition Barbados Labour Party (BLP) and the incumbent Democratic Labour Party (DLP). Therefore, as has often happened elsewhere within our Caribbean Community, the Barbadian electorate have a week to read, compare and determine which of these two traditional contestants for control of state power deserve to be victorious. It’s a choice Grenadian voters will also face, two days earlier, when they trek to polling stations next Tuesday (February 19) to confirm projections by some pollsters and commentators of a return to power of former three-term Prime Minister Keith Mitchell’s New National Party (NNP). This is the haunting fear of supporters of current first-time Prime Minister Tillman Thomas’ National Democratic Congress (NDC).
