I don't think you understand what gentrification means. It is not solely about outsiders coming in and pricing out locals, it can also be about locals enjoying upward social mobility, getting richer. There are many BVIslanders who are wealthy through hard and legal work.
In any case, there is an old phrase, no taxation without representation. In BVI the majority of adults are disenfranchised and have no voice nor even trade union representation. This has lead to wide spread corruption and employment abuses. I live here and love these islands and the community who live here, I would like to vote so that all the community gets better governance and that everyone's quality of life improves (better education, healthcare and infrastructure).
