New Barbados government faces economic challenges
As the Democratic Labour Party takes over the reins of government in Barbados following Tuesday's election victory, credit rating firm, Standard & Poor's has suggested that while fiscal restraint could improve the country's creditworthiness, these policies will be difficult for the new government to manage as the Barbadian economy slows.
Barbados Elects Leader From Opposition
The opposition swept to power, winning at least 20 of the 30 seats in Barbados' legislature, according to election results Wednesday. David Thompson of the Democratic Labor Party was expected to be sworn in as prime minister on Thursday after a recount in the close race for one seat.
Elections in Barbados
