Digicel Chairman Denis O Brien
Digicel Chairman, Denis O Brien is calling on the United Kingdom to step up and do the right thing for volcano-ravaged St Vincent and the Grenadines.
In a statement issued on Monday, April 19, he said the ongoing activity at the La Soufriere Volcano has resulted in a humanitarian crisis, causing the mass displacement of over 30,000 people, food insecurity and a potential public health emergency.
The Digicel Chairman said: Nations like St. Vincent & the Grenadines have historically been slave nations of the UK and, since Independence in 1979, have maintained strong political, legal, administrative, tourist and trade links with the UK. As part of the Windrush Generation, who assisted British reconstruction activities after the devastation of World War 2, they served in many occupations hit by labour shortages - yet their children were subjected to deportation and threats of deportation from the UK despite living and working there for decades becau
