UK expands its presence in Commonwealth countries THE United Kingdom’s representation in the Commonwealth countries of the Eastern Caribbean has expanded over the last year. His Excellency Craig Fulton, Acting British High Commissioner to Barbados, noted the above as he delivered remarks during the Award Programme for the winners of the 2019 Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition, which was held at the British High Commissioner’s Residence at Ben Mar, Erdiston Road, St. Michael yesterday. “We now have our new High Commission offices in Antigua, Grenada and St. Vincent, as well as one in The Bahamas. And that has all taken place since we hosted the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in 2018, in London. So this gives a growing and very good footprint for us to work ever more closely with our Commonwealth nations here and we have a lot of issues to work on and issues in common, which particularly affect the small island states of the region. Chief amongst these is the issue of climate change,” Mr. Fulton remarked. Noting that this year the UK will be hosting the 2020 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Kya Knight of the Deighton Griffith Secondary School was the winner of a Gold Award in the Senior Category of the 2019 he noted that there will be greater Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition.
