Prime Min­is­ter Kam­la Per­sad-Bisses­sar has cat­e­gor­i­cal­ly de­nied claims that the Unit­ed Na­tion­al Con­gress (UNC) is seek­ing to in­flu­ence Wednes­day’s (Feb­ru­ary 11) elec­tion in Bar­ba­dos.

The de­nial fol­lows a veiled ac­cu­sa­tion by Bar­ba­dos Prime Min­is­ter Mia Mot­t­ley, who sug­gest­ed that the op­po­si­tion De­mo­c­ra­t­ic Labour Par­ty (DLP) had adopt­ed the slo­gan “yel­low is the code,” a phrase close­ly as­so­ci­at­ed with the UNC.
