None of the Democratic Labour Party’s (DLP) civil war will prove to be a distraction for Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley who urged stalwarts to be similarly focused.

Instead, she says she will concentrate on the remaining mission critical and mission transformation issues which have to be fixed in Barbados, she told a standing room only crowd at the St Christopher Primary School in Christ Church last night.

Also making reference to the move away from the Barbados Labour Party (BLP) by Christ Church South MP Ralph Thorne to become Opposition Leader, the Prime Minister said she understood life was all about such moves.
