Description
Denzil Douglas and the St Kitts-Nevis Labour Party were given a mandate by the people of St Kitts in four consecutive general elections. This second volume of speeches by Dr Douglas covering his second two terms in office from 2004 to 2015 demonstrates how his first two terms as party leader and Prime Minister set the foundations for many of the policies and programmes that came to fruition in terms three and four and points clearly to changing priorities and greater participation by St Kitts and Nevis in the increasingly interconnected global community beyond the Caribbean basin. This selection of speeches and pronouncements chronicle the impact the Douglas Labour government had on the welfare and quality of life of the citizens of St Kitts and Nevis, the region, and beyond during the second half of its twenty-year administration and gives readers the opportunity to decide for themselves whether Denzil Douglas and his cabinet colleagues did, indeed, make a difference.
