Minnis is lonely at the top?

So Dr Hubert Minnis, Leader of the FNM and of the Official Opposition says it’s “lonely at the top”! Top of what? What is wrong with this man? He’s not prime minister yet (I hope he never will be) but he’s already delusional. He should leave the delusional emperor thing to Perry Christie.

Silent politicians

Did you notice the deadly silence from all 21-Cabinet Ministers when EXIM China acted in their best interests?

Chickens home to roost

The Prime Minister needs to rein in his cabinet ministers, hacks and semi-delusional political fanatics before it becomes too late for the credibility, sustainability and viability of this now ludicrous “Gold Rush” administration.

Wells and Rollins shows weakness of FNM

Wednesday news from the House of Parliament of the resignation from the PLP of Wells and Rollins, does not merit headlines.

A catalogue of despair

If there is any truth to the adage that “God Smiles”, then the corollary must also be true, and judging by The Tribune this morning 4th November, I would say that “He” must be frowning, if not scowling, at the Bahamas and its people.

Seek help on crime

Crime in our country - I have grown so weary and frustrated with the never-ending comments from politicians, citizens and “so-called experts”.

Pointe permits

Re: The Pointe Permits (The Tribune, Letters, October 29)

Less talking, more action

In Scotland this summer, I read The Tribune on the Internet with horror. Everything that could seemed to be going wrong in the Bahamas, my home for a good many years and I hope years to come.

Izmirlian and two governments

On the face of what we hear, neither the PLP nor the FNM are willing to take responsibility on parts of the process for the approval and execution of Baha Mar, although they were at their time the sole exclusive authority.

The people of Crooked Island

Survivors of the recent Category 5 Hurricane Joaquin, which devastated Landrail Point on Crooked Island, wishes to express heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the following individuals and organisations, for the quick response in sending relief supplies from the USA.

Open letter to Fred Ramsey

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy will come in the morning.

Time for serious rehabilitation

During the decades of the fifties through eighties many Police Officers were sent to the UK for training. It was during my training at the West Riding Detective Training College I was taken to a Borstal Institute in a city in England. It is a prison for young offenders, who are taught trades while incarcerated and assisted to get jobs when released as certified tradesmen.

Rising debt is a danger to the nation

Something does not add up. Forgive me if I am wrong but VAT was introduced due to pressure from the IMF and general gloom from credit agencies who were continuously downgrading our economic status, their fears are – we are drowning in debt ie the National Debt is huge.

Pointe’s effect on cruise ships

Everyone is talking and complaining about the Chinese Pointe. But no one seems to care that the marina planned for the Pointe might interfere with the traffic lanes of the cruise ships and by default, our cruise ship trade.

The National Development joke

Successive governments from time immemorial have difficulty in completing what they promise and approved in any single year Budget so you really think it is feasible to try to write a 30-year to include every island’s national development plan?
