Exactly!

What about repatriation to Africa?

@@tugful we should start with the moors, no? They did come good ole colonizing hundreds of years ago. I mean, they made it all the way into Spain. Not too shabby.

@@tugful The citizens of Barbados can work out their individual interests in visiting or living on the continent of Africa somewhere...on their own terms.

@@davidleomorley889 Black people are not native population of Barbados.

Check you facts bro .... only Corporations have President ... The Government of Barbados by legal definition is the State Corporation of Barbados which is a Company owned by the British Crown, all they did was put a Black Face to head a white owned company and so many Black People get tricked .... why Black People so easy to get tricked, we have learned nothing from history

@@antoniobaret7928 So you rather stay with the status quo? The Queen of England is not the Head no more even though Barbados is a British territory.

@@jahservantgad9042 it is not a British territory

@@jahservantgad9042 they clearly don't want your influence.

Exactly could not agree more buy my home Jamaica has not. Am Jamaican and I agree with the young lady that it was imposed on the people of Barbados by a POLITICIAN. POLITICIAN are not to be trusted and if my country decide to go republic here or she our new president should be a president executive and not a ceremonial President. People should elect their president and it should be way of popular vote no college like the USA. Jamaica parliament is filled with families father son wife husband. I want the people to be the ones to chouse and a mass education campaign be done to enlighten us as to the different political options a new constitution modeling that of the USA that's what I want and what Jamaicans should ask for with the exception of the electoral college that the USA use. We would use popular votes to elect our president. Two different political party.

@Mike Dessal western nations don't need their former colonies to survive. They were already rich before colonization.

Beautiful but corrupt

Thank you and greetings from Barbados. I feel at home whenever I visit the continent and home to visit Tanzania, Angola, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique by 2025.

We don't you all are Normal Human beings and have the same dignity and respects as all of the rest :)

Jamaica will get rid of the queen sooner than you think Jamaica ex prime minister Portia simson did try to seperate from the queen but It was railroaded..but it will happen .its inevitable.

Why do you put in the South African flag in your comments? I've noticed it a couple of times

Why you got the South African flag?

@@FBISHOJI good

Lies

The new president is the previous governor general 1. There has been a commission decades ago on the topic of going towards being a republic, the idea of being a republic is nothing new its just that previous leaders never got around to it but the idea was always widely popular 2. The prime minister in her manifesto ran on taking the country towards independence and defeat the last administration 30-0 taking all of the seats in parliment.

I am glad that you ignored the debt they had to pay to France, the American invasion, backed dictatorships, rice dumping and agricultural collapse which destroys business formation in the country, constant intervention to prevent Haiti from havind diplomatic relationships with other countries they don’t like, welfare trap and debt trap. 😂 it’s always funny how white supremacists ignore these things pretending their IQ drop to feel good about the enslavement and the scams they run around the world for the sake of genetic survival. Btw, most African societies were sustainable, they are destabilized by welfare which lead to overgrown populations and debt. No wonder you have you central bancos in our countries.

Long live Monarchy, God save the Queen.

@@MarvinClarence A fascist regime. They made you a moron. Potential H-bomb.

Jamaica has the same decision to make as the queen is here but what I realize this is all about emotion rather than logics.

👌👌❤️

It's not new. It just changed it's constitution and government structure.

It's not a new country. Its just changed the way they govern themselves.

@@tobiisiba1641 how so? What does the UK do for Barbados or the commonwealth countries?

You don't know the first thing about the British Commonwealth, do you?

@jan viljoen dont we all speak your colonizer's language?

That's the mindset of colonizer

You sound ignorant.

@@peggystoutemorin4529 no buddy he's just not ignorant he's arrogant also

Comparing new C'bean Republic countries to Haiti is already a gross exaggeration.

How did Barbados benefit economical from the uk?

Hahahah quite so!

@ Black Hawk so if they want a bajan head of state and be republic, they won’t want all their titles they received then and all the benefits that come with it, like remaining with the commonwealth.

@ Black Hawk I do know the history and we all know how the people were treated. But everyone today seems to be only focusing on the negative. Barbados would not be the country it is today without English money being poured into it. Education, healthcare, construction and everything else that comes with it as they’re still a part of the commonwealth, let’s not forget again. I don’t know why someone like you and others see her as the devil. The British monarchy has been around a long time and will continue to be. Her majesty and other members of the Royal Family have said multiple times how much they adore the country and the people. She is a proud head of state, what’s so wrong about that.

@ Black Hawk you’re right there, it is hard earned and regardless whether Barbados is republic. For some stupid reason, we’ll still be supporting them financially along with all the other benefits.

So where is your proof that the UK doesn’t pay into their system???

Nonsense

Obviously not.

agree

Obviously not!

Obviously not. God save the Queen.

Thats what you'd like to see huh? Removing the queen as head of state will have little to no bearing on corruption on the island as the queen merely held a ceremonial position with no actually power or influence over the islsnd for the last 50 years... barbados ranks 29th out of all the worlds nations in relation to corruption and than has nothing to do with either the queen or the uk.

@@muithai619 I would love not to see corruption. But the whole world is riddled with corruption. Corruption is the main problem on this planet. No politician loves his country. Not a single one. And the prime minister of Barbados probably loves only money.

@@maindirectorate1400 i agree corruption is a massive problem in the world..... barbados unlike many other countries has had many strong visionary leaders which have lead us and have done much to improve the lives of the citizens.... we have free education from primary to university, free healthcare.... pensions for the elderly and social assistence for the unemployed.... we have also had a stable political climate since independence with credit to ourselves as a people... barbados is also a working democracy ... the last government wasnt doing as good a job as the people would have liked...that party was all but destroyed.... they didnt win one single poltical seat in parliment the population completely voted them out of government.... politicans dont get a chance to get courrpt here and stay in power.... like most countries we do have our issues but i can tell you barbados is one of the best places in the world you can live.

@@muithai619 That's great to hear. I would be the most happiest person if you figured out a way to eradicate corruption. Hopefully your neighbours will follow your example.

@@maindirectorate1400 i wouldnt say we fully eradicated it but its not at high levels.... the caribbean has had a shared history but many countries have had their own unique issues which cause problems as it relates to corruption such as the effects of colonialism in trinidad with divisions racially, religious culturally and consequently politically of indo trinidadians and afro trinidadians the same pretty much in guyana....or the fact that jamaica's history with socislism greatly affected the island politically, socially and economically.... also owing in part to US sabatoge.

Oh dear, another person who doesn’t understand Barbados has been independent for years….. The biggest colonialist powers are now America and China

No, God save the Queen.

Why are you expanding Somalia territory into Ethiopia and Kenya?

@@tauceti8060 because it's my land.. Go and check the history until now it's my land.... Somali territory

These are all Corporations owned by the British Crown masquerading as government ... it is the Indigenous People who have to retake they land and set up Sovereign Government, after the trick of independence people still fall for the trick of the British with another rebranding of slavery in a new name

@Ringadingding take your advise and stop celebration false freedom

Obviously not. God save the Queen. Long may she reign.

@ Black Hawk Nope, they are free. Try again whit better logic.

@ Black Hawk They were free and independent country before they became republic since 1960s, as they had there own government. Having same head of state is not colonialism and does not mean they were not independent, they were de facto in union whit UK, whit same heads of state, while having completely separate and independent government.

Félicitations, vous avez énormément de chance. Mes salutations de Guadeloupe et de Martinique.
