De Peiza Raises Concerns Established October 1895 Misleading vaccination video condemned Page 4 Saturday February 13, 2021 $1 VAT Inclusive De Peiza raises concerns PRESIDENT of the Democratic Labour Party (DLP), attorney- at-law Verla De Peiza, is again taking issue with Government’s handling of the COVID-19 pan- demic, contending that under normal circumstances, it would have resulted in a no confidence motion being laid in the House of Assembly. In a statement released yes- terday,De Peiza speculated that with the increase in the number of COVID-19 deaths, which as of yesterday stood at 21, the likeli- hood of the lockdown coming to an end on February 17 as planned, would not happen. With that in mind, she is urging the Government to take Barbadians into their confi- dence, letting the people know what is medically expected in relation to a lockdown. “We will listen to you in rela- tion to the science and on the other side of COVID, we need to be realistic about our expecta- tions and declare revenue gener- ation plans, outside of taxes.

    EDITORIAL 2019 – Jahr der Frauen Wer sich in einigen Jahren zurückerinnern wird, wann das Zeitalter der Frauen wirklich begann, kommt um die Erkenntnis nicht herum: 2019 warʼs so weit. Christine Lagarde wurde als Präsidentin der Europäischen Zentralbank eine der mächtigsten Wirtschaftsführerinnen. Ihren Job beim Internatio- nalen Währungsfonds übernahm die Bulgarin Kris- talina Georgiewa. Zugleich wurde die EU-Kommissi- on von der Deutschen Ursula von der Leyen erobert. Und in den USA startete die Demokratin Nancy Pelo- si als Sprecherin des Repräsentantenhauses und da- mit wichtigste Gegenspielerin jenes Präsidenten, wegen dem man dieses wunderbare Land nur noch bemitleiden kann. Apropos Trump: Die Machtverschiebung hatte nicht nur mit den klugen Frauen zu tun, die 2019 Schlüsselposi- tionen errangen. Es lag auch an den Männern selbst, die noch mal richtig zeigen wollten, wie dumpf sie sein konnten, von Trump und Boris Johnson bis Erdogan oder Kim Jong Un. Und jetzt? Schafft es eine 16-jährige Schwedin, die Weltgemein- schaft aufzurütteln in der wichtigsten Frage: Wie lässt sich der Klimawandel noch stoppen? Zugege- ben: Greta Thunberg polarisiert. Aber selbst das zeigt, welche Fortschritte wir machen. Gelebte Gleichberechtigung heißt nun auch: Die Frauen können genauso klug oder dumm, erfolgreich oder glücklos sein wie die Männer.
