KINGSTON, Jamaica - INSTEAD of possibly two changes in government shortly within the 15-member Caribbean Community, as originally assessed, there could well be a third later in the year.
Changes forecast, and based on public opinion polls, point to expected termination of current first-term administrations with two first-time prime ministers in Barbados and Grenada.
But currently, amid growing political challenges for Prime Minister Denzil Douglas's governing St Kitts and Nevis Labour Party (SKNLP) — largely based on a mix of deepening economic misfortunes and, more worryingly, internal divisions in his party and Cabinet, there is growing speculation of a likely snap poll later this year that could well result in a change in Government in Basseterre.
