Helping our fellow citizens

Please allow me some space in your paper for further comments after the passing of Matthew.

Dance of the macabre

Everywhere I go here in our beautiful capital island, I am besieged with questions as to my political allegiance by all and sundry.

A fair justice system

The more I see of the American’s interpretation of freedom, the more I appreciate our British inherited system of justice underpinned by law.

Cartwright for FNM South Beach

The silly season in politics has started in earnest and the craziest things are happening.

Baseball in The Bahamas

BASEBALL in The Bahamas is not a step-child, but rather a neglected and abused orphan.

Problem gaming

BAHAMAS Gaming Industry needs to explore intervention in addressing the issue of Problem Gambling (PG), and street mothers with infants.

PM criticism of Opposition leader

Following Hurricane Matthew

I’m not a psychiatrist, but a Bahamian who experienced and survived Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans eleven years ago.

NOTWITHSTANDING your editorial accolades for our Prime Minister today, I have to ask if he is playing with a full hand when he proffers the thought that we need a “hurricane tax” now.

Time for another Carnival

I TRULY feel that now is the time for another Junkanoo Carnival. Another $7m to $10m to put on the carnival is no big deal.

YES we feel for every soul in The Bahamas affected by the passing of cruel, devastating Matthew; however there are rights and there are no rights.

Hurricane tax plan . . . say what?

FOLLOWING the disastrous aftermath of the monster Hurricane Matthew and the need for hundreds of millions of dollars “to fix the country”, it is unbelievable to hear talk about the possibility of a “hurricane tax” to be levied on us, the already suffering public, when we have been constantly bombarded with evidence of the blatant, irresponsible spending by government of our monies over the past several years.

Dangerous poles on St Michael Rd
