Expect poor service post COVID-19?

Referenda a way to test the waters
The Letter to the Editor – Voter against Govt., not citizenship and signed D Rolle - is a great comment as politicians and their advisers incorrectly have decided to risk, at your political life, taking a further referendum.

For years we denied legitimate claims to citizenship now proven in the Wayne Munroe, KC, case and Appeal to the Privy Council and justifiably the higher Court judged in favour of his claims now any child of a Bahamian male from an outside relationship with a non-Bahamian mother born in the Bahamas is a citizen.
