End corporal punishment now!
It is unfathomable that in the 21st century, teachers and parents are beating our children to a pulp. ALL teachers and parents who resort to beating lack communication skills.

Jesus focal point of our history
CHRISTIANS throughout the world are currently reflecting on the death, burial and glorious resurrection of Jesus Christ during the Holy Week.

Inequality

Military is best option to fix Haiti
I have been watching several television shows on You Tube from Haiti in the past weeks. Three hours of Aljazeera’s show this morning was filmed in Haiti. The cameras revealed poverty at its worst; children that are suffering, rodents, litter and garbage, protests on the streets accompanied by the burning of tyres, a police service, that is overwhelmed and a state of complete disorder.

Secret ballot
Free, fair and regular elections are fundamental features of democracy. In addition to being free and fair, elections must be seen to be free and fair by Bahamians and by the rest of the world. Elections are the county’s constitutional and legal system of validating public choices in leadership; and they are also very often the only opportunity that the citizens have of participating in the electoral and political process.
Carnival cruise port
Concerning the $200m development of the Carnival Cruise Port at Sharp Rock, East Grand Bahama, what will become of Freeport Harbour once this project is completed?
King David and LGBTQ members
