Jamaica, Antigua and Barbuda and Grenada are three countries seemingly well on the road to republicanism with leaders in each nation asserting their plans to become independent. At the time of the Queen’s death, Barbados was approaching its first anniversary as a republic. There was not a single day of national mourning, flags at Government buildings were at half-mast on the day of the Queen’s funeral but Barbadians on the whole continued as normal.
