Mitchell living in La La Land

After declaring that he will dedicate his 2017 election campaign to the fight of women’s right, Fox Hillians should shout: ‘’Earth to Fred Mitchell, you and your PLP colleagues please wake up from your La La Land dream and address the real issues affecting the Bahamian people!’’

Strange bedfellows

The saying that politics makes strange bedfellows aptly applies to the current political soap opera unfolding within the FNM between Dr Hubert Minnis and the six MPs who are pushing for his removal as leader.

Applying price control regardless

The spectacle of the Price Control Commission (PCC) visiting and demonising businesses in the press has recommenced, but with a twist.

I cry shame on unfit leaders

On June 7th, 2016, the Bahamian people spoke loud and clear.

Atlantis concessions

The Prime Minister mentions often that Atlantis has some special concessionary agreement which will not expire.

Christie must go after failed vote

Following the second rejection in three years of the government’s direct proposals by the people of The Bahamas, Mr Christie MUST resign.

Blame, blame everywhere

Re: WICHCOMBE: WE ARE ALL TO BLAME FOR CRIME LEVELS.

For an urgent national turnaround

My fellow Bahamians, our country stands at the precipice.

I cannot explain with words how terrible a person can feel if they happen to be a bullying victim. But what is bullying you may wonder.

My self-serving, narcissistic, overbearing, thin-skinned, oligarchic newest best friend Tennyson Wells has elevated me to the level of superstar. He has gifted me my very own groupies.

Minnis will prevail

As the Free National Movement’s convention draws near, it does my heart good to see the support that Dr Minnis is getting not just from the Nassau supporters, but from the Family Islands as well. While the battle for leadership raged, Dr Minnis has remained focused and done his work well. The sign of a great leader!

After the referendum

In the aftermath of the Referendum, there is much speculation. It is disturbing to hear accusations that the Bahamian people are ignorant or misogynistic, xenophobic or homophobic.

Casting the first stone

In recent times, Bahamians have been consumed with the realisation that many of our sons and daughters are not subscribing to what we call “old school” methodology. The discussion of alternative lifestyle has caused us to abandon Christian principles and become God himself.

The illogical fallacy of CA Smith

I should be grateful if you would permit me a little space to comment on the unwarranted attack by retired Parliamentarian and Ambassador to Washington C A Smith on retired Governor General Sir Arthur Foulkes which he made by open letter on the 10th June 2016.

Unpaid real property tax as much as $400m

I am hearing that Real Property Tax people are starting a re-evaluation process…if it is to create an electronic data base I certainly support that BUT if it is to re-assess, probably increase the Tax Assessment I take the greatest objection seeing that the department has an inability or convenience not to be able to collect over $400m in back unpaid assessments.
