- Queen Elizabeth II passed away last week after reigning for 70 years over a Commonwealth of Nations that included Barbados until November 2021, when the country became a republic. In an interview with FRANCE 24, Prime Minister Mia Mottley said the queen "did extraordinary well as the head of the United Kingdom and, indeed, as head of the Commonwealth".

PM Motley is composed, intelligent, well spoken, and a common sense women and PM. You need to interview this lady more often. She has a voice that needs to be heard by many world citizens.
She should be the one leading for climate crisis even more so yes
It's being heard, believe Me.Listen her address at the climate change summit,her address to the US Congress, the African Union and More Recently to the UN General Assembly, just to name a few.She is a global leader and spokesperson for the Third World and Africa
Insane! She should have kept the King and First Her Majesty the Queen to whom She gave such a dissapointment by ditching the Crown! Shame!
Yes, a dragon 🐉voice.
I'm always impressed whenever she speaks, and I'm not from Barbados.
Mrs. Mottley is a Prime Minister of which the people of Barbados can be proud! Eurdite and insightful! Better than most of our lot.
Everybody who dont know the English Caribbean think that all the politicians and people will be ready to lash out at the UK and the Queen. I sure that's why they interviewed here.
Anytime she talks about major issues, especially when dealing with the UK and the Crown she is always so well balanced in what she says. And this is considering how hot headed Caribbean people and politicians can sometimes be.
Truly a Leader ahead of herself ..in so many ways lucky are we to have her !!
That's my Prime Minister. You can put her on any radio station and she would spin a tune, topic or interview in and out of any season and draw top ratings. We are proud of her.
AMEN 👍 MY Prime MINISTER,
YES we do LOVE HER and IS SO PROUD OF her brilliance AND intelligence. 🎆🙏💓
Mia is such an in-depth and thoughtful speaker, Barbadians should be exceptionally proud of her, I wish I could say the same of our Jamaican prime minister....
I can’t think of any other politician that is as intelligent and articulate as PM Motely.❤❤
Her referencing Third World's 96 Degrees in shade, brought back memories of that song for me when it came out in the 1908s. 😍
Very intelligent woman, very articulate & thorough, I like her for that.👏🏿
My great grandfather was from Barbados 🇧🇧. And my maternal grandmother's grandfather was either from Barbados 🇧🇧 or ended up there.
Honestly I will visit that country because of the PM, Mia of Barbados. She's too smart.
Can she become PM in the UK when she’s finished in Barbados?
Mia Amor Mottley is a genuine heroine! She is so informed so intellectually competent I can say there's no other man or woman that can win on any level with her she will win and continue winning until her last breath
The interviewer was trying to get her to criticise the Royal Family, but Mottley expertly avoided doing that and instead praised the Royals and criticised the French! Bring up France's turbulent constitutional history, implying she didn't support former colonial powers (including France) having veto power at the UN and suggesting France should also pay reparations for its colonial history.
Thank you! People compliment her on her intellect but do not state "their" going to aid or support her or her country or theirs any further for that matter! Compliments are thin follow the readers instead of "Let's win the world back and follow the "LEADER" smdh.
She is indeed a powerful blessed woman, she knows what she speaks about and courageous, she has a great reason to be the leader
PM Mia Motley was born to lead, great interview!
i am ashamed to say today is the first time i have heard of her. But i am glad i did. She is amazing.
She is a no nonsense woman and I love her and I hope others will follow
What a marvelous leader. Lucky Barbados.
The country where I am from Barbados 🇧🇧
Prime Minister, Motley have been well schooled and is what one would consider a five-diamond diplomat! You will not get her going off script or being out maneuvered by the any International Interview!
Good to hear that Mia Mottley recognizes that Charles is ahead of time!
This Lady is a smart articulate Leader. Barbados is fortunate to have her. May her leadership be long and continue to be effective.
Excellent intrrview.....especially the issue of reparations and the responsibility of all the European countries not only the UK.
Yes!! The interviewer wasn't ready! France we are talking about you too!
@@journeyswithj246 I was thinking the same, she hit him twice and this one stung
Mia Mottley is a classy lady. Lots of respect
Very brilliant P M , l love her response , thank u for all u said
Very good interview. 👍
Thank you for this interview!
More love from kenya 🇰🇪 mia
My prime Minister and I am proud of how she spoke and represented us in what she said. Well said Mia.
I love her more than my prime minstrel of jamaica 🇯🇲
Vote Mottley for president of the world. She's brilliant.
When asked why Barbados became a republic, Madam Mia had an incredible answer to that, everyone was eagerly waiting for the flow, then she mentioned our childhood dream of becoming a '' President '' Brilliance
If she really wants that, then she can have the president be directly elected by the people (like in Ireland).
@@TheScrowlingFender7 Who are you to decide how a countries system functions?
@@jamaicansunitedforchange5745 I'm not. Just giving my opinion.
Madam Mottley is very wise to remind France and the audience that slave trade wasn’t only a British practice, and that we should acknowledge the correct parties mainly politicians, merchants, lobbyists etc who made decisions and who used the monarch’s impotence in political affairs to enrich themselves for centuries and now they help feed the notion that the monarchy had direct power and control over their policies.
Slavery was a human practice even before Europeans
In fact the British had to force the French, Spanish and most countries that practiced slavery in the EU to stop slave trading. They also stopped Brazil and some parts of the Middle East.
What DO they DO then?
@Cee Gabe what do the monarchy do as in? They do charity work mostly. The money we give them is probably better spent by them than the government.
@Femme Fatale Wdym? What is OK? Are you gonna deny Britain credit for ending slavery because some Britons owned slaves? Yeah, the Mau Mau crisis and other British atrocities are bad, but are you going to suggest that that somehow means that East Africa would have preferred Arab slavery and that the Indian subcontinent would have preferred Mughal rule? It appears that the concept of relativity is an alien idea to political extremists on both sides.
I really admire this lady
She sharp!!!
Well done PM Mia Motley, Barbados to the "world"!
Mia Motley, Micheal Manley and Pierre Elliot Trudeau all went to London School of Economics and they why her comprehension of what ails our world so concise. Thanks Lasky.
Her parting shot on climate change was so spot on. The urgency of climate change should not be reduced to sound bytes that sound good but confront the challenges of climate change with balance and urgency.
Very well said.
Pm motley made a good point about the five main members of the sucurity council .why should they be the main five .Considering their 190 plus countries on the earth .
People from Around the WORLD The Royal family always controller for any issues rather than Government doing what they should be take the responsibility for the issues regarding the people's problems to get results.
God bless you for everything
Primeminister Mottley, is a credit to her nation, i will do everything in my power to help create peace & tranquility throughout the Caribbean & beyond, i will make an announcement in the very near future that will be a real game changer, watch closely, i have the will & desire to make a positive change, Mia Mottley a leader of our time's,
H.E.Ambassador Mckenzie.

#Love #Barbados PM #CaribbeanLeader
Mia Mottley, a force of nature...global leaders take notice!
The world is threatened
I love the way that, as a patriotic Brit, Queen Elizabeth's passing has given the PM of Barbados and other Commonwealth leaders the chance to be heard on the world stage. I also love Mia Mottley's intelligence and composure. On the matter of reparations, a part of me is sympathetic, but what about those African leaders who sold the slaves in the first place? It seems to open a can of worms which can never be resolved and would cause increasing rancour - like a new scramble for Africa, but for money. I'm sure the Chinese will be happy to exploit this.
PM Mia Mottley has spoken on many high profile issues and is a leader on climate change efforts within the UN. She’s doesn’t need the Queen’s passing as a reason to be interviewed.
Yes, African leaders should of course acknowledge and make amends for Trans-Atlantic slavery, some counties such as Ghana have done so. However, the point is that European imperial countries were the ones to profit and benefit from slavery (not only the initial trafficking of people, but the regime and institution that kept people and families in bondage for multiple generations whilst profiting from their labour and exports).
Hi Alex. I think your first point is wishful thinking. Smaller countries really struggle to get their priorities heard let alone recognised on the world stage. That is why they must band together -hence countries like Rwanda and Gabon wanting to join the Commonwealth.
On your second point you seem to suggest that African countries have dealt with any question of complicity in the slave trade - and that no one in Africa benefited from it. This is historically inaccurate. The Trans-Atlantic slave trade was an outrage to any idea of humanity. However the very idea of human rights came out of Europe and was implemented first by Britain in banning the slave trade, then the existence of slavery. African leaders of the time resisted this strenuously. Ironically, it was British imperial power that prevailed in eliminating it, at least insofar as it has been eliminated, because of brute force.
The ironies of history are unending. Best wishes to you Alex.
Boom!
Ahead of his time! In the meantime he's waited for 70 years for this job!
Barbadians did not want to become a republic! The Pm wanted! They had NO democratic referendum!
So you’re saying they wanted to have the white queen of England as their head of state? And the aborigines loved her as well? Gedoudahere!
@@themarblekingI am not saying! It Is written in International official documents! facts are facts! White or black the Queen was their head of State besides the female pm wanted to stay in the Commonwealth of Nations anyway!
Don't know what you're talking about! She and her party were right on the money when they decided to go on their own! This job is NOT for wimps or scaredy cats!
Her asking her own question to point out the other European powers and france included
💕💕💕🇧🇧🇨🇦
From colonialism to commonwealth
Very Marley-esque Garveyite Rastafari.
Eloquently and succinctly put…between the devil and the Caribbean Seas.🤔🤧
A ruler who was ahead of his times by talking to plants. Why should we take
This man seriously.
How did the Monarchy get rich?
King Charles wants to be a Tampax and he is.
He’s not even the real heir 🤦🏻🗯
🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧
MP Mia Mottley is mistaken on her opinion on the raciest King Charles.
Dismantle the commonwealth
