We can see virus has very little regard for social status
As of August 20, the United States of America has a total of 5,550,029 confirmed COVID-19 infections, with 173,306 deaths.
Ms Kelly should retract
Catherine Kelly, in a recent column, obviously thought she was dispensing good natured business advice that would help us during the pandemic-forced shut-down of our tourism economy.
Minnis must remember he said it is the people's time
The announcement that Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) Leader Philip “Brave” Davis had contracted the COVID-19 virus is a stern reminder that the virus is no respecter of persons. We must pray for the PLP leader and the 1,300 plus Bahamians who have been diagnosed with COVID-19.
We must take more offence whenever we hear the N word
It will take a stretch of credulity to try and make the case that Bahamians are inherently racist. Black, brown, white or any hue in between, we are wedded to the principle of equality.
Time to bring back Bay Street
Tribune Business on Thursday 13th August “Commercial Landlords Urged…” realtor David Morley tells the desperate story of where the country is today and perhaps portends where we are on the way to, on our current trajectory.
Funds needed in quick time for rental help
We would like to commend the Government of the Bahamas for the work of the National Food Distribution Task Force, which has impacted the lives of thousands of needy Bahamians in search of food in the COVID-19 pandemic. Those among us that are most vulnerable have been targeted to receive assistance to the tune of 1 million dollars per week. While this feat is quite admirable, thousands of unemployed Bahamians have been unable to pay their rent, mortgages, bank loans and other commitments.
Insulted by this trash talk
I must, outrightly, disclose that I myself have neither been informed nor benefitted by a personal read concerning “conduct” and its “code” – as expounded upon, evidently, in 1955 England, the Lord High Chancellor, Viscount Kilmuir, at the time the highest ranking judicial officer in Britain (see The Graduate’s Letter- to- Editor, The Tribune of Monday, August 10th, 2020). I have not had the privilege yet.
An inspirational leader in waiting
Would you kindly permit me some of your valuable space in your prestigious newspaper to share my thoughts on the Hon. Shanendon Cartwright.
We need to care for those who have hit rock bottom
The Tribune broke the story that Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis will be going into self-quarantine due to possible exposure to COVID-19 at the Cecil Wallace-Whitfield Centre.
Some fast food for thought
Yesterday morning while shopping at the Golden Gates shopping centre I noticed that Super Value wasn’t the only hub of activity.
Life can't go on like this past September
So, we are on lockdown until September 30, 2020. Let’s pray that everything works out by then. We are really a lockdown-weary people right now. Life cannot continue on this road beyond September – in my opinion.
Leaders who are going nowhere
The Tribune reported that there were 48 new COVID-19 cases on Saturday.
To make wise decisions, we need the facts
COVID-19 started in December 2019; possibly earlier. In order to contain the virus, The Bahamas and countries around the world went into lockdown. We were asked to be patient and told the lockdown would not last long.
Stick to what you know and don't deal in rumour
There’s a video on YouTube and Facebook of a Gulf stream G650ER leaving the Lynden Pindling International Airport several days ago.
Madam Justice is out of order with her views
If Joan Sawyer was just an ordinary retired senior citizen she would be well within her remit to wax eloquent on any subject her heart desires.
