Yearwood: Going to IMF was a bad choice

THE BARBADOS LABOUR PARTY (BLP) chose to burden taxpayers, says Democratic Labour Party (DLP) president Dr Ronnie Yearwood.

During the inaugural The People’s House town hall style meetings at St Alban’s Primary School, Weston, St James on Sunday evening, Yearwood said Government had the choice not to work with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) but instead chose to saddle Barbados in further debt.

“They ended up putting the debt back up to another $2 billion. So they ended up restructuring the debt, wiping out everybody’s savings, to bring us back to another $2 billion in debt? What was the point?” (CA)
