Comrades if the Commish had to dispatch (9) policemans to walk Leader Hubert Alexander down the House steps, can you imagine if it had been the "real leader" The Rt. Hon. Hubert Alexander? Don't let it even cross your minds, if they had placed their hands to remove Sister Loretta down them house stairs. Try sending an entire policemans battalion? It no jok'in when she says;: "Policemans don't touch us, we'll leave." Could this Nygard stem cell grown into a big enough controversy to rise to the level of THE tick'in clock for this PLP cabinet, that pushing for legalizing the numbers rackets never was? Maybe?

"The Bahamas...be for Bahamians"...seriously? These are the signs that are handed out by our 'educated' parliamentarians and flashed in front of the cameras? Trying to figure out what possible word can be top right to complete that sign and have it make sense. We are screwed as a country when our leaders are illiterate.

"Must"? "Should"?

Hmmmm...possibly...don't know how much space is there...must may fit, should would be too long I would think.

Simply further entrenching Tribal rule,
Ignore the written rules provided by the Constitution for peaceful Governance.
Foreign Investors scooting through the "special" revolving door to the P.M.
A door no Bahamian will ever see.
The problem is ours however,
as we elected them.

Sad moments for our country...<img src="http://tinyurl.com/c7l9ck6" width="1">

What a banana republic. All of this brouhaha prevents Perry from explaining his relationship to Nygard that he was supposed to do weeks ago. But the dang house of ass-embly never lets him speak. What a surprise.

It's funny how a feud between two multi-millionaires living in a walled enclave can totally drive the actions of the government.

It's no wonder all of the smart money who don't want to buy the government are bailing.

Bunch of jackasses!!

boy. wow

Abaco's Edison Key was the one and only red shirt MP that stayed seated when his leader and House colleagues walked out. What has the former member for Bamboo Town done to Marsh Harbor's Edison, cause ever since Bran lost his House seat, Edison hasn't whispered a single word in support of his party. He must have some hold over someone in the red shirts, not to even have been disciplined by his leader, much less outright fired. What would Hubert have done with Edison? But in many ways this Hubert A, is unlike THE Hubert A. I seriously doubt Minnis is eager follow his former leader to face-off in another Abaco By election loss to PM Christie. Then again, did Edison ever divorce the PLP? Will Bran's return to assume the red shirts leadership, be the one thing to get Edison once again start talk'in in the House? Maybe?

Whilst Bran and Loretta wage war for the red shirts leadership, Hubert wants nothing do these two, he stay'in put up in the safety of Cooper's Town.

This isn't even about HAI. Why the obsession with him?

Comrade Banker, Hubert was and remains the real red shirts problem. There's no ducking it. I I happen to believe that the only way you could be right would be if somehow Hubert can be kept well away from media microphones. In the meantime I'm offering 50 to 1 odds that's an impossibility. Maybe Edison Key can teach Hubert to shut up?

I agree with banker. HAI has bowed out of the picture; TalRussell is punching at phantoms.

Hubert is the ghost that haunts you. He is your nemesis. He is everything that your precious PLP cannot because they do not have the gonads to do it. Every single one of them is an effete, man-driving tief (except Brave who has a ting for Yardie front-sellers), liar and kleptocrat. And you are smart enough to know that. So you have to harp on HAI, because he is the only man among the girly men that are your heroes. How he does haunt you in your sleep, in your waking hours and in your thoughts. Your very first thought always goes to HAI. Oh what a man is he to dominate you so.

Edison Key has cooked his goose. He never was a FNM all he ever wanted was to be in Parliament as a member of the government. He does not have the balls to be in opposition. The bombs which he was to drop on Mr. Christie, Gary Sawyer, Michael Albury and Obie Wilchcombe must have been duds. I suppose he was sore that he did not get cut in the deals which he supposedly had the inside scoop on back in 2002/2003.
Former Prime Minister Ingraham foisted Mr. Key on the FNM's of Abaco twice and most of the hierarchy of the local branch was and continues to be opposed to Key representing them and are often heard wishing that he would just walk across the aisle where his heart is. Now Mr. Key can take his payoff by openly admitting that he has been or will soon be "A CONSULTANT" to BAIC. Talk about "dog going back to his vomit." Oh I forgot that is what Mr. Christie did when he and Mr. Ingraham was thrown out of the PLP. Key said at the FNM convention when he joined referring to his and Mr. Ingraham's relationship, "What has been will be again." True to form he is back to the PLP from which he came. For the Good People of Abaco I say "GOOD RIDDANCE."

The Tribune's video shows how polarizing Loretta's one-woman leadership show is over shadowing her leaders big day in the House. It's all about her. Unfortunately, Minnis has become but a footnote. The Comrade sister makes for colorful reporting by political journalists. Tribune readers are being given a rare glimpse into the workings of the red shirts leadership. Something few in their own party have ever witnessed.

A year ago, the election outcome was baffling, how could this happen? Strange and disconcerting reports circulated, having to do with piles of cash spread about to buy votes, but from what source? Cui bono?

Who stood to benefit from this not inconsiderable investment in nation 'jacking?

Well, now we know, don't we, and it's straight from an Ian Fleming novel, isn't it? Fondly recall reading Fleming for the first time whilst staying with dear family friends at their beautiful home out on Eastern Road by Winton Highway. What seemed a great series of novels turns out to have been, as are so many, taken from the pages of history.

Fitting that Fleming, scion of London bankers to the Elites and veteran of Admiralty Intelligence, often situated his stories in the Bahamas and wrote of those who sought to own the world for their own pet plaything, and isn't it?

"World domination, the same old dream.Our institutions are filled with men who think they're Napoleon - or God."

Peter bought Perry, heart, soul, and hemorrhoids.

Perry bought Edison without balls and a chicken gizzard for a heart. This man should never go back to the good people of Abaco. He is a disgrace to those hard working decent people. I hope Minnis and the FNM ship him back to Perry and the PLP.

I want to know why are we acting like our all of our politicians from both sides are so immaculate and above board and that they got every penny in their bank account by lawful means. Are we kidding ourselves? This noise about Nygard and Stem Cell is all about politics... plain and simple. I don't care who was having lunch or dinner with him... I hope they were saying, "thank you" for the money and I hope there is more where that came from. At least we can see that the money will be going towards something substantial. I don't know what all this noise is about.... well yeah. I know.. politics. Who cares... thanks Nygard. Send that money right to Grand Bahama and pour into that island's economy since none of the governments want to do it... thanks Nygard and thanks PLP... Some of those politicians are only mad that they didn't get that hands on that money first, so that they could get their cut and give the people the rest. Ya'll please... I don't need no fighting in the House of Assembly unless it's about creating jobs for the unemployed and revitalizing the economy, fighting over all over increasing penalties for child molesters and sexual predators and actually enforcing capital punishment in the country... fight over that... not who give money to who. The 20 percent of people who are unemployed in GB are not impressed by this. Desperate times call for desperate measures... thanks for all that cash, Nygard.

Loretta Butler is "true to form". She thinks' getting away with slapping Dr. Rollins is a passport to more stupidity....

Karma and time will land her and her big mouth where she belongs soon enough.

wow. so when the police gonna lock up any other citizen there response should b (don't touch me). that bull crap these people obviously think there above the law. my issue is this country is crippled by debt, high crime and others. Stem Cell research shouldn't b a issue where the people who lead this country should be acting like this. it is clear that someone is not interested in the development of The Bahamas and its people. Put stem cell behind us and focus on the matters the effect The Bahamas, its citizens and the tourist who come to our shores.
