P rime Minister Mia Mottley has firmly rejected rumours of an early election, asserting that her government is steadfastly committed to delivering on its promises to the Barbadian people. The statement comes amid speculation that the ongoing We Gatherin’ celebrations could be the precursor to an early trip to the polls. Mottley, who addressed a brief ceremony at State House on Wednesday, where ten Barbadians from St Lucy were honoured in the We Gatherin’ 2025 Honours for their significant contributions to community life in their parish, was adamant that the current administration remains unaffected by such rumours.
“I am comfortable about where we are, but I am not complete with what we have to do, and if we have work to do, I am not in any need for us to go and have the conversation [about elections],” she said. “It is other people’s business to want to speculate, to conjecture, but I regrettably do not have that luxury. I have to stay focused on delivery for the people of the country.
” Mottley said her administration’s attention is on enhancing the lives of Barbadians. “This government, as I said in Archer’s Bay last week, is focused on delivering to the people,” she said. “The truth is that the Governor of the Central Bank will speak this morning (Wednesday), and when I saw his press release, it is clear that this economy is doing well.
