    Montserrat's Chief Minister Bertrand Osborne is in London for wide ranging talks with British government. These talks include a large aid package for the island and the reserve of powers for the governor. Next, there are growing signs in St. Lucia that an impasse between the government and the Media Workers Association is about to end. For over a week media workers have refused to broadcast statements made by government ministers. In the following, personnel from the Print and Broadcast Media from Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica and Barbados are meeting in Port of Spain. An individual from Trinidad’s Caribbean Communication Network Media group said their main concern was the extravagant awards for damages against newspapers. Next, the dispute between the giant car company Forde and British Transport Union over allegations of racism over the recruitment of workers was settled today, as the matter went before an industrial tribunal. Finally, since ethnic minorities could make a difference in the upcoming general elections in Britain, organisers of Operations Black Vote are trying to get the black population more involved in politics. Research suggests that only half of the British Afro-Caribbean are likely to vote.
