Nov. 24, 2015

Dr. Timothy Harris, Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis speaking to state-owned DBS radio on Wednesday 18th November on his government's introduction of a Bill in parliament for term limits of a prime minister.

"It …avoids the situation that we have had in say St. Kitts and Nevis where after a very, very long time in office the prime minister there, Dr. Douglas, began to feel that the country was his, everything was personal and private to him. "It (no term limits) leads to a brand of authoritarian leadership in the country that is unhealthy for the democratic process."
