Former Prime Minister Perry Christie.
FORMER Prime Minister Perry Christie said he is willing to help Prime Minister Philip “Brave” Davis in whatever way necessary should the nation’s leader deem it appropriate.
His comments came when he was asked by The Tribune yesterday how he expects his relationship with Mr Davis will contrast with the relationship Free National Movement leader Dr Hubert Minnis had with former Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham during his term in office.
Dr Minnis and Mr Ingraham appeared to have had a strained relationship since Dr Minnis took over as FNM in 2012 after the party’s election loss, with the Killarney MP declaring that year that the Ingraham era was over.
In 2019, Mr Ingraham and Mr Christie suggested Dr Minnis ignored their capacity to help the country recover from Hurricane Dorian.
Dr Minnis later called their comments misleading and referred to them as an “unnecessary distraction.”
Mr Ingraham did not endorse Dr Minnis during the recent general election campaign.
“Prime Ministers get into office and they determine the extent to which they will consult and with whom they will consult and so really it will depend entirely on Mr Davis because he knows like many others I am willing to assist him, I’m willing to help if he deems that a proper thing to do or an appropriate thing to do,” Mr Christie said yesterday. And so I am sure though that he is not going to allow me to be sitting out there when I could be of use to him and of help to him in the way Dr Minnis allowed me and Hubert Ingraham to sit out there when we could have been a more effective tool for him to use without there being politics in the matter.”

He is prepared for starters to share the phone numbers of the ladies in Las Vegas and to advise on how to help Mr. Nygard . Then he is prepared to advise him on how the process of awarding a Knighthood unfurls. And why before the end of this term of office of the PLP he should be knighted and thereafter be formally referred to as Sir Perry Christie.

He'll have no problem helping him siphon money from the treasury to his personal bank account.
The guy ran the country further into the ground for multiple terms, what help could he actually offer?

no. he needs to keep hydrated, take his vitamins, get daily exercise then put his connections and people skills to good use for the country. Just dont give him an overly busy schedule, he clearly needs his daily good night's rest, as do we all.

... Christie was a monumental failure. Brave is on course to be a failure. I don't think he needs any help getting to failure faster. If anything he should distance himself from 'Vomit' as quickly as possible!

Christie, Ingraham, and Minnis, only knew how to benefit themselves, friends, family, and lovers!
Should Brave need help in that area, then by all means bring in Christie.
