Praise for ‘Plane negligence’ report

I am a Bahamian physician and pilot and I would like to thank you for a wonderful piece of investigative reporting as published “Plane negligence” on May 8, 2017.

Comparing relays, beach soccer and early voting

RECENT events should be compared.

Analysis of our leaders

IN 2012, the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) came to office on a wave of “Believing in Bahamians” and claiming to be the “Bridge to the Future”.

We deserve better

THE Progressive Liberal Party ran a very successful campaign in 2012 highlighting the extent of the debt, deficits, corruption and murders and told us ad nauseum they would fix them. Yet somehow they are all worse today.

Disobeying the will of the people

Very early in his career, old King Saul of the Bible, the first King of Israel, disobeyed God, giving flippant excuses and foolish rationale.

The NHI scheme

NHI - the brilliance but mass stupidity in the whole proposal.

The so-called election 2017

THIS has been the most incredible campaign, basically based on who has created the most corruption and the biggest scandals.

Stay Brave

AS no doubt Perry Christie agrees, Jerome Fitzgerald is showing all the qualities necessary to be a highly successful PLP Prime Minister of the Bahamas.

The story of the BTC sale

PARLIAMENT has been dissolved, the parliamentary committee established to investigate the sale of BTC (an issue deemed by some to be of national importance) never reported.

Loretta in deep water

LORETTA Butler-Turner steps into very deep water when she compares her political career and that of Hubert Alexander Ingraham.

Stop a repeat of 1987 vote

THERE are reports that voting at the advanced polls at the Kendal G L Isaacs National Gymnasium got off to a rocky start.

Shameful

The disgraceful chaos at the advanced poll on Wednesday and the promotion of 851 policemen and women on the eve of the poll are an assault on our democracy.

Tarahan Mackey is a true gem

THE IAAF/BTC World Relays were watched in person, on TV and online by many people all around the world. Have you ever wondered what it takes for something of this magnitude to actually happen? I will tell you one component that is absolutely necessary and that is hundreds of volunteers.

An ode to Perry Christie

Oh but the bliss D-minus is . . .

Tourism numbers

THE all-important statistic in Tourism is those who visit and stay in an hotel or condo or apartment our total number of what is called ‘stay over’ visitors, these folks have been flat - no increase for the past ten years and certainly since 2012 the last election.
