Simply put, ours is a mission of Enfranchisement,
Empowerment and Inclusion.
This Covenant, which was approved by our
2015 Annual Conference, sets out our values,
our principles and our vision for a 21st Century
Barbados and will inspire our policies. You shall
always have the confidence of knowing how we
will take decisions and how we will act in your
name. It is a Covenant of Hope between us and
you. We will come to you, parish by parish, to
listen to you and elicit your ideas on how best
to put our vision to work for you. And in return,
we will ask for your patriotic and enthusiastic
participation as together we seek to turn that
vision into reality.
The Barbados Labour Party understands that
you cannot build a nation unless you empower a
people. We understand the need for continuous
EMPOWERING, REBUILDING &
UNITING BARBADOS
The Hon. Mia Amor Mottley, Q.C., M.P.
Political Leader & Chairman of the Barbados Labour Party
Barbados is not working for the vast majority of
Barbadians.
We need a Covenant of Hope – one that will
allow for the healing of our nation. We must, all
of us, agitate for more visionary, compassionate
and responsible leadership from all who would
govern. We must return to the values that
sustained and distinguished us as Barbadians.
The time for a new politics is upon us.
Our Party must let Barbadians know who we are,
what we stand for, and what we are prepared to
fight for.
We must remain steadfast in our mission to
build a better society, to forge a new national
consciousness, to rebuild our economy – all guided
by the best principles of good and transparent
governance - while engaging the world.
