Prime Minister Mia Mottley’s decision to make changes to her Cabinet twice in the space of two years is not unusual, says political scientist Peter Wickham.Contending that it was in Mottley’s power to do so, he said the biggest move in the reshuffle was the appointment of first-time Parliamentarian Corey Lane to a ministerial position.During the Barbados Labour Party’s (BLP) 83rd Annual Conference over the weekend, Mottley announced Cabinet changes that would take effect on Wednesday.“Our Prime Minister is entitled to a reshuffle as frequently or as infrequently as she may so desire. Remember under the administration of David Thompson we did have changes that were being made, and certainly, within the short space of time he was alive as Prime Minister he made changes, I think twice, so this is not abnormal,” Wickham, a political scientist and Director of the Caribbean Development Research Services (CADRES) told Barbados TODAY.
