Three of the most precious elements of a thriving democracy are the freedom of expression, the freedom of association and the freedom of movement. These are rights which Barbadians would do well to protect and not allow their political alliances to cloud their judgement when they see these rights being usurped.
The advent of COVID-19 has seen the curtailment or denial of the right of association and movement by Government under managed circumstances, as a means to fight against the spread of the coronavirus. I support this Government’s efforts to fight the pandemic and if certain restrictions of these rights are necessary and permissible by law, then I am completely supportive of the Mia Mottley administration.
