Why should politicians be invited to speak?
CHURCH of God Convention - appearance for Prime Minister in the pulpit - I have to ask as I have when Sir Lynden and certainly Perry Christie accepted the invite of this church to address their convention - why should politicians be invited to speak?
Forget the potential environmental issues with the Oban deal
The Bahamas National Trust has come out strongly against the Oban Energies deal the Government has signed citing potential environmental damage to the nearby National Parks.
Not what the tourist brochures promised
I attempted to drop some Canadian friends off at the eastern access point to Cabbage Beach on the weekend.
Dare we hope for better?

No Pointe labour ratio survey?
Did the director of the Department of Labour really admit a survey hasn’t been carried out on The Pointe’s Bahamian/Chinese labour ratio since pre-May 2017?
No longer an impartial observer
As a cultural commentator, playwright James Catalyn produced a summer madness series aptly named “Laughin’ at we sef”. This was the essence of satire and what tickled our funny bones the most were the parts of the narrative that were not fiction but were actually culled from the news headlines of the day.
Reece Chipman is a loose cannon
The FNM tried to erect a wall of protection around Reece Chipman, the MP for Centreville, but it is looking pointless because he is a loose cannon who keeps lobbing cheap shots across the Prime Minister’s bow.
Rumour of a vote of no confidence in PM
A short while ago it was said that I was starting and spreading rumours about Hubert Ingraham being a part of a coup to challenge Dr. Hubert Minnis for leadership.
Govt making wrong decision on Post Office
I’ve spoken with a lot of Bahamians concerning the Post Office move to Gladstone Road. They say it’s foolish, does not make sense and it’s the wrong decision the government is making.
Saving grace will be Baha Mar
Well we have some would say endured a week plus of House of Assembly pontificating but at least we did learn a little as to what the Minnis Government has been working on since May 2017.
Is a Clifton polluter involved in LNG bid?
About a year ago, BEC’s deputy general manager Shevonn Cambridge and safety and environment manager Bharti Jones were quoted in the press saying BEC is “not the sole contributor” to Clifton’s oil pollution problems. According to a Tribune Business story, they were referring to the presence of nearby facilities belonging to the three major oil operations – Rubis, Sol Bahamas (Esso), and FOCOL (Shell).

This letter is prompted by things that other people, mostly my wife, show me on Facebook.
PM must act quickly to revisit the Oban deal
It is incredulous that the Cabinet would sign on to a deal for the eye-popping sum of $5.5 billion (with a B) representing 50% of GDP, and then think that it was going to go down with a drum-roll and a ticker-tape parade. At first whiff, Oban doesn’t pass the smell test.
Government must say no to LNG at Clifton
I read this week that the government is considering plans to locate a Liquefied Natural Gas facility in New Providence to aid in power generation. This is a great idea. LNG is far safer, cleaner and less expensive than the outdated and wasteful system we have been using for generations.
