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.
Wetland destruction
THE PLP is destroying the wetlands located off Marshall Road, in Southern Shores by giving leases to churches and others to build in this restricted area.
The task of the satirist
Few things have come to symbolise the morning ritual better than a hot cup of coffee or tea and a roaring laugh over the political cartoon in the newspaper.
The lie of free NHI care
NHI…has the programme taken away ‘Free Medical Care’ for our old people?
Nygard’s giving
I must agree with V Alfred Gray’s timely statement when he said Peter Nygard has done more for The Bahamas than most Bahamians have. That might sound controversial, but it is the undeniable truth.
Failure of the PLP
Forget all the rallies - the political signs and face reality as this I believe has already cast who will win Government on May 10th.

Munroe deserves no votes
I was sick to my stomach when I learned that outspoken and extremely controversial attorney and Queen’s Council, Wayne Munroe, had been both chosen and ratified to represent the constituency of Free Town, formerly Montagu, for the Progressive Liberal Party in the upcoming General Election.
FNM and PLP go head-to-head
I, along with other Bahamians, agonise over the fact that neither of the two major parties are completely acceptable. We are not card carrying members of either party and would gladly vote for another party. We would not, however, wish to wake up on the May 11, 2017, to another PLP government.
Swing goes against Christie
In my opinion, both the PLP and the DNA have misread the outcome of the 2012 General Elections when many FNM supporters, just like Branville McCartney, revolted against Ingraham’s leadership, supported the breakaway DNA and defeated Ingraham.
Copycat slogan
THE PLP’s 2016 campaign slogan Forward Together Bahamians reminds me of its 2012 Believe in Bahamians slogan. The 2012 campaign propaganda helped to etch in the minds of angry Bahamians that the Free National Movement was, derisively speaking, the Foreign National Movement.

Police reservist pay
WHEN are the Royal Bahamas Police Force reservists going to be paid for hours worked?
History of Bahamian rights
I GOT home from the FNM Tsunami Rally about 11 last night. I hurriedly tuned into ZNS TV13 to see what the PLP rally looked like.
