Mia A. Mottley cements legacy with 3rd successive 30-0 victory in Barbados elections
Mottley's BLP won all 30 seats available in the elections on February 11, 2026, unseating Opposition Leader Ralph A. Thorne, after the prime minister built one of the strongest global profiles of any Caribbean leader, and was supported by voters across the country.
"Our mission first and foremost is to stop poor people from being poor and to remove injustice wherever it exists to create opportunities for people," Mottley said in a victory speech on election night.
Surrounded by supporters dressed in red, she announced that Friday, February 13, 2026, would be a public bank holiday in Barbados.
The 60-year-old prime minister also promised to take care of Barbados' democracy, which last year celebrated 75 years since people earned the right to vote without owning property.
Her party has vowed to continue to focus on the economy, cost-of-living and the Caribbean nation's place on the international stage.

Words in action is more powerful than mere words, ie, written, spoken, etc. What a leader does is more important than what say. Talk is cheap; action has impact.
PM M. Mottley is a regional, international, global rising star., setting the personal example worthy of emulation.
.
Simple put, any country where no opposition has been disallowed, is in fact has voted a dictator in power.
Bvi we need to call a early election but we don't have any opposition that will do different to the current government.
It's ashame we can't trust any one of the political parties to put to lead us. None of them have this country best interest at heart.
I will touch on vg, the island has now began to look like a jungle, properties with trees half the height of the lamp poles and some hanging in the roads.
The roads need attention .
The road by the junction to go by the water and sewage reservoir needs urgent attention, it is about to collapse and pedestrians could get hurt if it collapse.
We need sidewalks on the main road, we cater to tourist and there is no safe place for anyone to walk safely.
Kids walking to and from school. With the drivers on the road not considering pedestrians.
Every property owner have their fence on the road side.
These are some of the things that we need to look into as a small country with enough finance being available to fix these issues.
Vg is a small but together community who will come together and help to fix our issues if we have to but some politicians take things to heart and get defensive and try to victimize. We need to get our once beautiful island back to its beautiful state. We don't need government to do everything, we can show our vg pride and start doing for our island.
