Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley says she is not about to be distracted by any of the controversy now surrounding the Democratic Labour Party (DLP).
Instead, she plans to focus on the remaining mission critical and mission transformation issues which have to be fixed in Barbados, she told a standing room only crowd at the St Christopher Primary School in Christ Church last night.
Also making reference to the move away from the Barbados Labour Party (BLP) by Christ Church South MP Ralph Thorne to become Opposition Leader, the Prime Minister said she understood life was all about such moves.
“Life is about choices. You can’t get vexed when people make choices. You could get disappointed,” she said moments after Senator Dr Shantal Munro-Knight was overwhelmingly chosen to replace Thorne as the BLP candidate for the constituency. (BA)
