Just another junket for the politicians promoting business opportunity for the ruling elites; while poor people cover the costs.
.. and what do the UK know about business practices now? After leaving the LUCRATIVE European Union (Brexit) and losing around 600 million potential customers in the process.
TALK ABOUT SHOOTING YOURSELVES IN THE FOOT???
And why on Antigua’s God green earth, do the ABLP keep hanging on to the “worn-out” coat tails of the Brits and their out of KILTER Monarchy?
Mercy Mr Percy! 😁
