Parliament at an all-time low
July 25, 2012 unfortunately will go down in the history books as the day when the Bahamian Parliament reached an all time low.
Nation lacks a vision
I can only imagine that the idea of Independence was a grand and novel notion during the late 60s and early 70s, one that was eventually able to draw a mass of support as an obvious advantage and natural progression for the majority of indigenous people in the Bahamas.
McPhee admission
The recent admission by the pastoral group that they should have approached their fellow pastor before coming out against his stated position, finds its root in the Matthew 18 passage, that gives clear outline on how such “faults” should be handled within the Christian church; but the fact that Pastor McPhee is in the place of being right is really a “technicality”, brought about by the grace of God.
By-election will be referendum on PM Christie and Hubert Minnis
Former Free National Movement (FNM) Leader and Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham has made it abundantly clear to the press on the night of the elections that he will officially resign from the House of Assembly, after serving as member of Parliament for the Cooper's Town/North Abaco constituency for 35 years.
The final twist from Ingraham
So Hubert Ingraham continues with his games even at these closing hours of his political career.
The big gold dream
The Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) ran a magnificent electoral campaign.
No one man makes a party
On July 14th you printed a letter to the editor from a Committed FNM. Is that FNM committed to staying in opposition or committed to the failure of the FNM party.
Proof of why trade unions are necessary
IT was reported that former workers’ savings were allegedly used by City Markets’ owners for their own ends.
Ingraham can still be a help
I am writing in response to two letters that were recently printed in The Nassau Guardian and The Tribune taking me to task for calling on former Free National Movement Leader Hubert Ingraham to defer retiring from the House of Assembly until 2017.
You picked a fine time to leave . . .
I write these words with a heavy heart but I feel I must say them. You are wrong for quitting on the people of North Abaco after they showed great faith and elected you to represent them for what you coined as your last and final term.
Appalling treatment of Hubert Ingraham
It is appalling the treatment being given to the honourable member by the House of Assembly after fifteen years of service as a member of that body.
Review of PLP government
CSME – I was under the impression in 2005 that any association with the proposed “single market concept” was thrown out by the PLP with the dirty bath water?
Fears arising for the rule of law
I am beginning to fear for our country given the creeping callous disregard for law and the rule of law by some charged with ensuring adherence to and respect for the law.
Ingraham should stay in House
EDITOR, The Tribune. I agree with Mr Kevin Evan’s position in his July 1, letter to the Editor that Mr Hubert Ingraham should stay on as the Member of Parliament
The debate on legality of gambling
The issues surrounding gambling in the Bahamas, have always been coloured by whatever the popular political view prescribed them to be.
