Mickey Mouse government entities with great beaches and vistas.
Barbados is giving the heave ho to the Queen to dump its colonial vestiges.
Time for St Martin to say au revoir to gay PARIS and Sint Maarten to dump the King.
One island
I don’t have a horse in this closed border race since we most regularly stay on the Dutch side of the island, but really? You think the existing governments should be over thrown and consolidated into one? They’ve pretty much coexisted peacefully all these years- and I personally hope they can continue to do so even if it sometimes becomes problematic or inconvenient to the occasional visitor. I enjoy making the occasional foray to the French side beaches but I AM ONLY A GUEST and I will deal with ‘whatever’ just to be on the whole island - either nation.
Remember the old ad campaign - one island - two cultures! Long may it last.
