Alfred Sears should run for leader
I admire that Alfred Sears had the courage to challenge Perry Christie at the last PLP convention. It is sad that the PLP did not have the good sense to get rid of Mr Christie and go into the election with a better leader.
Larry Smith is a big loss
THE Bahamas has indeed lost a fearless and excellent journalist. Larry Smith was one of the very best.
The problems with BPL
BP&L - ZNS News report Sunday last. Wow if you believe one word of that release all our troubles with excessively high electricity rates have to be over - what a lot of garbage.
Bishop Neil Ellis and his sermon
I assume Bishop Nei Ellis has a thorough knowledge of the 10 commandments specifically for this letter the 8th Thou Shalt Not Steal.
Electoral reform
THE recent revelation regarding BPL’s $1.5m dollar payout as authorised by Shane Gibson and former DPM Philip ‘Brave’ Davis reiterates the need for reformation of the electoral process.
Bad service at NIB
I think it is very ridiculous that I have spent 30 minutes of my morning (9am-9:30am) calling the National Insurance Board to ask one question and I can‘t get the phone answered. How is it possible for a building of at least 300+ people and no one answers the phone?
First Class or People’s Class?
So are the Ministers of The People’s Government travelling ‘People’s Class’ or ‘First Class’?
Graduate's selective morality
IN long-winded discussions, one can easily forget the core issue being discussed. I think this is what happened to The Graduate in his public discussion with me on civil unions and homosexual marriage. He seems to have forgotten the core issue. Please allow me space to remind The Graduate of the core issue and to point further to his selective morality.
Car prices
What are we coming to here in The Bahamas when we have private businesses complaining about Bahamians trying to save themselves some money by purchasing reasonably priced, good condition, well-running vehicles for themselves and their children to get around instead of having to pay high monthly payments to a bank that has no concern for you.
Tasks for tourism
TENDERS-RFP’s for providing services or alike to Government? There is a requirement under Law that any item over $50,000.00 must go to a published tender - why didn’t Tourism send the marketing contract to public tender?
Police probe is not a witch hunt
IT must be quite clear to the public at this time that the witch-hunt being alleged by prominent politicians and lawyers is not deserving of their acceptance.
Punishment a joke
WHEN I heard the news about the punishment that was handed down to the two police officers who were caught on video drinking on the job, I was absolutely outraged. This was literally a smack on the wrist.
Gardiner will learn
CONGRATULATIONS to Steven Gardiner, with his silver medal at the IAAF in London. He has the potential to be one of the world’s greatest runners in his time.
Stop this tax plan on rentals
Stop! I understand the government needs revenue, but it must stop for a moment to get a clear understanding of the vacation rental industry.
We Rise just a PLP response
WE Rise is nothing more than a PLP idea to piggyback on Senator Ranard Heinfield’s We March Bahamas – an organisation which was a thorn in the Christie administration’s side. This fact alone reveals that the PLP lacks innovation. Whoever the organisers are, they are copycatting Senator Heinfield.
