Still don’t understand the unconditional ban on weddings. Couldn’t weddings be placed inbtge same protocols category as funerals? I am sure that there are couples out there who may wish to marry without having to involve the whole village. A wedding with a maximum of ten guests or less can be just as, or perhaps even more beautiful and meaningful and practical as a wedding of a hundred or more. So what’s the rationale?
That’s an excellent point
I guess its ok to die but if you live, you must live in sin.

This is an opportunity or the Ministry of Education to try various online platforms for teacher and students. These platforms can be rolled out over the summer and be beneficial to students learning.
In the eventuality something like this were to happen again there will not be a hiccup in the transferring of educational material. Secondly this platform can be used to streamline education in Antigua and Barbuda.
The prime Minister and the entire cabinet need to look into private schools that are extorting people in these times, children are learning from home with both the parents and the teacher’s assistance for minimal hours yet they want full tuition!! An intervention is needed here.
