Muslims petition Govt to recognise Palestine
Article by May 22, 2021
Members of the Muslim community gathered outside the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at Culloden Road Friday afternoon to call on Barbados to formally recognise the Palestinian state, after weeks of bloodshed in which hundreds of Muslim-majority Palestinians have died in one of the worst Israeli-Palestinian conflicts in recent memory.
Waving placards and flags, scores lined the road across from the ministry declaring “Free Palestine” while police officers and passing motorists looked on.
Muslims make up 99 per cent of the population of the occupied Gaza Strip and 85 per cent of the population of the West Bank including Israeli settlers.

Former Barbados High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Reverend Guy Hewitt is questioning Government’s rationale for a number of recent diplomatic postings, given the global COVID-19 pandemic and the country’s present dire economic situation.
Though complimenting the administration for establishing a long-overdue foreign mission on the African continent, he charged in an interview with
Barbados TODAY that it was repeating the mistake of past administrations by not first presenting a foreign policy statement to Barbadians that explained the rationale for the missions and the specific persons being posted. Hewitt noted that in the absence of any coherent framework, Government’s recent appointments seemed “ad hoc at best and cronyistic at worst”. The former diplomat suggested that rather than just open new overseas missions, the Mia Mottley administration should be reviewing the operations of some that already exist.
Mandatory wearing of bracelets coming as COVID cases spike
Article by January 2, 2021
In the wake of a rapid rise in COVID-19 cases, Barbadians and visitors in quarantine will be mandated to wear bracelets to allow health authorities to effectively track their whereabouts.
Speaking during a press conference today, Minister of Health Lt Col Jeffrey Bostic said the new bracelets, which will be placed on persons in quarantine from next Wednesday, will make it more difficult for individuals to breach quarantine.
“The bracelets that we are speaking about are tracking bracelets. They have a mechanism, they are tamper-proof, and they are also water-resistant. And as soon as anyone tries to do anything, an alarm goes off and the command and control centre will receive those alerts and we would then be able to respond. If a person goes out of the area that they are supposed to be in quarantine, again the alarm goes off and we will be able to respond and respond prop
