New PLP faces
The PLP is having its convention this week. Philip Davis and Glenys Hanna-Martin are running to be leader. Mr Davis should win. He has the money and he is a man. Those are the deciding factors in that competition.
Youth violence
THE murder of that young 15-year old student, seems to have exposed us all to the nature of some of our young people. Our violent youth!
Time for Glenys to lead PLP
In a matter of days the Progressive Liberal Party will convene to slaughter Glenys Hanna-Martin in her bid to become the first woman leader of the party; just as the Free National Movement massacred Loretta Butler-Turner, in her avant guard attempt, to become the first woman leader of any political party in the Commonwealth of The Bahamas.

FRIDAY, October 5th, News item....PM + Ministers fly to Grand Bahama - did they goon Bahamasair? No if you viewed the interview with Minister Dr Duane Sands - they went private. Wonder whose plane again and why not Bahamasair?
