Something’s stirring out there…
PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - Last month it was Tobago. Last week it was the whitewash defeat of the Tillman Thomas government in Grenada, then the narrow electoral victory of the government in Barbados. That ferment of the Caribbean people may be enough for observers to sight a trend—one that should be disquieting for other regional governments. Every Caribbean politician might be now alert and agitated, demanding that their backroom strategic teams turn on the lights, because there is something stirring out there.
CCJ head to do UWI public lecture
KINGSTON, Jamaica - SIR DENNIS Byron, president of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ), is to deliver a public lecture at the University of the West Indies, Mona campus, tomorrow. Sir Dennis' lecture is the second in the Caribbean Institute of Media and Communication (CARIMAC) Distinguished Lecture Series. His visit comes less than two weeks before the CCJ opens its first hearing in Jamaica to consider the Shanique Myrie matter. Myrie has taken the Barbadian government to the CCJ on allegations that she was assaulted by an immigration officer in March 2011.
