Governor General pick
Selecting a Governor General - seeing we are sophisticated enough to choose MPs - nominate persons for National Honours, surely we can also be part of the process of appointing the Governor General?
Family rivals
Kindly consider the publication of this open letter to my beloved second cousin, Shane Gibson.
Criticism of police is unfair
THE criticism levied at The Bahamas Government and the Royal Bahamas Police Force is unfair in the following paragraphs I will attempt to justify the need for this type of regional cooperation.
The return of Shane Gibson
As a firm believer in the redemptive powers of The Lord Jesus Christ, through The Holy Spirit, I am elated that my longtime friend and political colleague, the Hon Shane Gibson, former illustrious Member of Parliament for Golden Gates, and cabinet member, is considering offering himself for parliamentary office again in 2026. The MICAL constituency would be the perfect fit for his return.
Well done, Apostle Valentino Williams
Over the years, I have been privileged to have met and sat under the spiritual anointing of myriad clergy persons here at home and abroad internationally.
Roundabout suggestions
While I fully endorse the view expressed by Athena Damianos, with respect to the QC/BNT roundabout, perhaps, if the Government has some money for “Roundabouts”, it may wish to convert the nightmare that is the Village and Eastern Roads mess.
Do as I say, not as I do
Recently, the European Union has ratified the blacklisting of the Bahamas for the failure of maintaining tax compliance for the regulatory bodies in Europe. However, the Bahamas has been largely compliant for decades and the EU still decides to blacklist the country during the recent United Nations general assembly.
Thoughts on hurricane devastation in Florida
Looking at the devastation dealt Florida by hurricane Ian, I shudder to think where we here in the Bahamas would have been if it had come our way.
Prices on goods and services
There are not many Bahamians who are going to agree with the recently announced rate hikes in their electrical bills. The economy is gradually bouncing back post the effects of Dorian and the lingering pandemic. With the increased internationally based fuel costs and the drastic cuts in the supply chain, across the board, many nations, inclusive of The Bahamas, inflation is literally 'killing' The Bahamas.
Unlicensed and uninsured vehicles
Did I hear the Police complaining about the level of unlicensed vehicles and also uninsured?
Highlights of the history of the Bahamian Parliament
The Bahamas observed the 293rd anniversary of the establishment of the Bahamas Parliament on 29th September of this year. I believe that 293 years of continual representative parliament is something that we all could be proud of.
Exclusivity of wisdom
Human beings are not all great thinkers. Don’t want to insult anyone, but think about it.
Try to save another generation
Losing a generation of young people? Should have read Another Generation may be already two gone - lost!
Oblivious to the obvious in The Bahamas
The 14th annual Bahamian ‘Shakespeare in Paradise’ (SiP) Theatre Festival actors were preparing to ‘go on stage’ at the Philip A. Burrows Black Box Theatre on Friday night as I listened, aghast and incredulously, to our Minister of Tourism excitedly gushing about bringing Broadway to The Bahamas, New York style!
Beach Access in Cable Beach
My sister and her husband are currently visiting from England. She is partly disabled and is unable to walk long distances. Since due to the pandemic they have been unable to visit for some years I thought it would be nice to drive them to a local beach.
