All Are Not Equal in Pastor Moss’ Eyes
I think the good Pastor Cedric Moss needs to be reminded that we are a secular state that separates the affairs of Caesar from the affairs of God. The Constitution does not, however, preclude voluntary collaboration between church and state for the common good, such as in state support for schools operated by religious groups.
Huff and puff at court
A LOT of huff and puff held over from last week and the drama of the shame walk - what difference would it have made if Mr Gibson had used his crutches to security? For millions, the Ingraham Government built these new courts - I recall that in the design there is a secure side entrance where all accused were supposed to be taken and from where they securely were taken to cells in the building.
Fire at the Rand Hospital
Too easy Minister - we need to see the report from the Fire Officer, before we throw this incident under the mat.
Minnis the reformer
What we are witnessing before our eyes today in The Bahamas regarding wealthy, prominent politicians being hauled before the courts is without precedent.
Apology to D’Aguilar
I owe a profound and abject apology to the Hon. Dionisio d’Aguilar (FNM-Free Town), the erstwhile Minister of Tourism. Last week, without first speaking to the Minister, as I should have done, I lambasted him in particular and the Minnis Administration in general for “terminating” nine persons, not eleven as I wrongly stated in an editorial, from the Freeport office of the Ministry of Tourism.
Sacred cows

Shame on D'Aguilar
I enjoy what I do as the number one rated (or so some say) talk show host in the nation. As host of The Real Deal, I have been presented with a huge electronic platform to promote nation building public policy initiatives and to make a difference in the lives of many Bahamians.
Price war
JOHN ISSA’S comments on the generally accepted fear of a hotel price war are interesting if not significant.
Sports and politics
It’s easy to see why politicians love sports champions and celebrities. But all too often we are left wondering if the affection is reciprocated.
Christian Council land
Why on earth does The Bahamas Christian Council think that they need a building for themselves, and why more serious does this new Government think the BCC should be granted Crown property?
Questions for the govt
THERE are issues of far greater concern.
Achilles hell of the PLP
An Official Opposition (PLP) member has exposed his party’s Achilles heel when expressing contempt for the newly elected Prime Minister’s national address.
Bail’s bad for your health
Re: Gunmen Murder Bailed Teenager. – The Tribune, 31 July, 2017.
It's the people's finances
I HAVE purposely allowed a few days to pass, after the Prime MInister’s address to reply.
Crumbling post office
THERE have been many remarks recently concerning the deplorable state of our main post office, both in structure and function. There are possibly at least two explanations for this:
