🗣️ Raheem Sterling: "My Mum is a proper warrior. She knows how to make it in this world. She’s probably the most streetwise person I know. She sat me down one day, and she said, “Look, I love you. But I don’t feel you should go to Arsenal.”
I said, “Ehhhh?”
She said, “If you go there, there’s going to be 50 players who are just as good as you. You’ll just be a number. You need to go somewhere where you can work your way up.”
She convinced me to go to QPR, and it was probably the best decision I ever made. At QPR, they didn’t let me slip up. But it was quite hard for my family because my mum would never let me go to training alone. And she always had to work, so my sister would have to take me all the way out to Heathrow.
Three buses. The 18 to the 182 to the 140. We’d leave at 3:15 and get home at 11 p.m. Every. Single. Day. She’d sit upstairs in the little cafe and chill until I was done with training. Imagine being 17 years old and doing that for your little brother. And I never once heard her say, “Nah, I don’t wanna take him.”
At the time, I didn’t understand how much she was sacrificing. She and my mum got me here. My whole family played a massive part in my life. Without them, you wouldn’t even know me."
Lobster, a luxury, carries a 40% duty. But chicken, the staple protein of working families, is taxed at over 200%. This is the silent crisis of protein poverty.
Protein builds strength, repairs tissues, and supports immunity. Yet in Jamaica, it has become a luxury, priced beyond the reach of too many families.
For years, in my column and in Parliament, I have built the case: our outdated food policies are driving this crisis. I have exposed hidden hunger, challenged unjust tariffs, and demanded a reset so every Jamaican can afford dignity at the dinner table.
The time for change is now. Clck the link elow and read my latest article: “The Unseen Face of Protein Poverty: Why Protein is So Expensive in Jamaica.”
