Tourism and the debate over education
REGARDLESS of any political differences which might exist between me and the FNM administration, there are two cabinet ministers whom I am constrained to congratulate on performing their portfolios well and beyond expectations.
Climate change
IS Prime Minister Minnis really serious about climate change and the environment?
Wayward donkey and busy roads
Culminating an almost year-long dialogue with my MP Brent Symonette, about the abuse of the Eastern Road, the chickens came home to roost on Friday last.
Christie the worst
WHEN I saw your headline - “Davis - Peter Turnquest is worst Finance Minister” it made my blood boil - the arrogance he accuses Turnquest of!
Stan gets his Sideburns trimmed
If you hurl a metaphorical rock into a room full of satirists it’s a safe bet the one that lampoons you in his cartoon the next morning is probably the one you hit.
Animal cruelty case
THE case of the man who was killing innocent dogs with his pit bull must be dealt with severely. We in The Bahamas want so badly to be taken seriously by first world countries but this will not happen if we continue to show that we do not care about the well being of living creatures. I read a letter to the editor in which the writer said we should “feel sorry” for the man who encouraged the dog’s death. I totally disagree.
Is this deal the best we can get?
I AM willing to take Michael Maura’s opinion on the BP&L announcement with Shell.
Poll brings bad news for FNM
PUBLIC Domain’s favour Poll of the current political favour has to have shocked Cabinet and the 35 FNM MPs as they all perceive they have been doing an incredible job. One Minister said phenomenon! Hey No!
By the rivers of Babylon
THE FNM administration is a work in progress. While in opposition, it promised too much, if that were possible, to the people of this wonderful nation. We are a strange breed of people. Unlike our counterparts in the wider Caribbean, we are politically passive in the extreme but once you’ve made a promise to us, we fully expect to see a concrete delivery and instantly. We are impatient and have very short attention span. It is what it is.
Police reserves
I HAVE been a member of the RBDF Reserves for the past thirty-eight years and am currently attached to the north eastern division. The reason as to why I am writing this letter is because, we the hard working Reserve Officers, have not yet received any stipend since January 2018, which would have been payment for the month of December 2017.
Union Boss Blows A Fuse
Sixty years ago, one of the coolest government jobs in town (literally) was at the ice house in Oakes Field, a stone’s throw from The Guardian’s media house.
BTC failure
I am perturbed, to say the least, by the service I have received today (4/16/2018) from BTC! I consider myself an exemplary customer as I do not complain and I give this service provider the benefit of the doubt! As a matter of fact, I had recently refused to give Aliv a chance but after today’s experience I am converted to Aliv.
Oft attire!
FIRSTLY, I’m not professing to be an authority on proper attire and when, but, my Hospitality training over the last 50 years still holds firm today, and having been told on many occasions with the numerous number of seminars, courses, I have attended throughout the United States, becoming a Certified Hospitality Trainer from the American Hotel Motel Association, I believe I’m qualified to speak on proper attire. etiquette, table manners, and proper grooming, and standards that never change!

Press secretary
OPM Press Secretary continues to amaze me that he makes statements which are challenged, I wish the journalists would challenge him, are inaccurate and shows that he has not read public documents such as the Heads of Agreement of OBAN Energies.
