		<description><![CDATA[Maybe they should have a chat with Jason Hayward about small businesses because apparently he thinks they are insignificant:

Jason Hayward, a PLP backbencher, said there have been numerous small business success stories since the PLP returned to power and the island’s GDP had grown in both 2017 and 2018.
Mr Hayward said: “We have to accept that there are improvements that have to be made, on our retail sector in particular. The decline in numbers is not positive for any government. 
“However when you look at it in the overall scheme of our total economy, our wholesale and retail sector is not a significant industry, not to say it should be ignored.
“The numbers support a growing economy. The numbers support economic growth.”]]></description>

I should not have to stand in line while you check your phone,nails and desk paperwork
