KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, CMC – Opposition Leader Arnhim Eustace Tuesday brushed aside predictions by Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves that St. Vincent and the Grenadines would record economic growth in 2013, saying the economy is worse than the country is being made to believe.
Responding to the EC$799.1 million (One EC dollar = US$0.37 cents) national budget presentation on Monday night by Prime Minister Gonsalves, the leader of the main opposition New Democratic Party (NDP) accused the government of engaging in “gonsieconomics”.
Eustace likened Gonsalves to Empero Nero, saying in this case, the prime minister was fiddling while St. Vincent and the Grenadines was burning.
