What is going on in this little country... They row each other yet nothing comes out of it. Are they filing the same for the Attorney General? What about Perry and his son with the pool contracts? All of this is just hot air and nothing will result from it. We don't care either.. We cuss and complain (myself included) yet when another election comes, we allow the same shit to happen again. I guess we try to vote for the lesser of two evils..

I really hope this is a ploy by Gomez to shine a light on PGC and AMG. If so, well played Mr. Gomez. Well played indeed.

Having previous suggested that government should sue PLP members of government, isn't he simply brown-nosing to re-gain some of his lost "PLP credibility"??

There is also the question of a certain Social Services Department that moved in Freeport to another location purported to be owned by a Ministers brother.

Although details were requested none were given.

Give Gomez the names!!

All he has to do is look at the lease, The lease would be available to him.

Does owner of old wendys building jog memories?

Give Gomez these names too!!

Gomez can access the names any time he wants.

Gomez fell on his face even before he got out of the gate with his 'holier than thou' anti-corruption campaign. The disclosure law in the spirit it was written would reveal more PLP cronies and conflicts than anyone else. How many did Gomez name? The intention is not to vilify persons with good intention and genuine contracts but to identify and weed out cronies and crooked politicians who looking out for friends, lovers and family. The government moved into the Butler building just a few weeks ago. And Gomez is a part of the government that signed the lease.

Proof that Perry has lost control of his senses and his caucus. The human garbage in the PLP, not a single one with a moral compass, are running rampant, out of control. From Mitchell, to Gibson, to Maynard Gibson, to Gomez, to Perry, to Brave, to Obie, to Brad, there is not a shred of human decency anywhere. How did we manage to breed and elect these animals?

If we are going down this road, we will end up with a constitutional crisis as there will be nobody left in the House!
well, maybe a couple.

Comrades, in Loretta's business dealings, the best way to have understood her core business behavior was to have observed her over a number of years.
Minister Damian in this finger-pointing matter, gives me NO reason to detect there may be signs of Loretta lying. In fact, unless he can produce creditable evidence to the contrary. he should forthwith do the honourabe thing - resign his cabinet post and House of Assembly seat.

A PLP cabinet minister pretends to be honest and unbiased and for a minute some of us
believes that he is ,and the first two members of the House that he goes after are the leader
of the Opposition and the former deputy leader, whom many FNM voters wish was the leader.
At least he could have gone after one of his government colleagues first if he were serious since he knows definitely that many are in the position that he claims the two FNM MP's are in.
His (political) house is burning down and he goes about trying to burn his neighbour's house
in the hope that it would quench the fire in his house. Silly little boy!

Very well put.

Yup. Brave has set him up for a very big fall. Rollins fell for this type of crap and now Gomez has fallen for it as well. This is his punishment for speaking bad of the PLP last week. Gomez truly is a fool.

My Comrades, under the Papa Hubert's regime, whenever a red minister had to reply to a question they can no longer avoid answering - they would say, the file is "under cabinet confidentiality consideration. Under PM Christie's - it's "we've lost the damn file."

LBT should welcome this attack on her integrity, and has responded in the best possible manner...sue Gomez to clear her name and then, if there are, NO skeletons in her closet, she would emerge as the ONLY squeaky clean candidate vying for Leadership of the FNM.

If Hubert "Minimus" follows the same route, and he too is seen to be above reproach, then the Bahamian voters know exactly where they stand, and the FNM can make corruption, as well as gross incompetence, the two pronged focus of their election campaign!!!

Comrade Wideawake, I don't think Loretta should lower herself to sue anyone. The ball is in the minister's court to Put up or Shut up.
On the flip side, I am having great difficulty with Minni's reported explanation, that there can be no personal conflict, cuz the cheques were payable to a company - that he has not denied owning.
Paul Adderley reminded me some years back that i was the beneficial owner of my company's shares, and that I was the only arms and legs responsibly for walking and
steering the company around, that I should just accept responsibility and save his thousands dollars in legal fees. I settled the case out court.

Gomez has attacked LBT in a clearly partisan manner. If LBT does nothing, he wins by smearing her good name, which maybe all he wants to achieve! If we wait for Gomez or government to make good on his threat, we might get tired of waiting! By taking immediate action to clear her name, LBT now controls the situation. She sets the agenda and her lawyer can immediately start proceedings and get this accusation cleared up.....in a timely manner!

Comrade, is the court going restore someone's character, let's hope not. To base one's character on emotions or what a judge has to say, is not the way I personally would go. Loretta has built herself a rock-solid character and I would leave it and the political playing minister at that.
If she really wants to lead the red party into the 2017 General, her primary focus should be on doing just that.

This is what they want to do? Political games while the country is in free fall? This is what statesmanship looks like? What a bunch of sorry individuals. Pointing fingers, bullying, name calling, and in general acting like children on the school playground. A sure recipe for a great nation.

Lets see what of interest around the world : The Apple company lost $183 BILLION dollars over the past few weeks as stocks continue to plummet in reaction to Chinas declining economy (they say it is a decline and not a recession) $183 billion dollars vanished in thin air, that's enough to build Bah Mar 52 times! Also GAS prices have fallen especially in the US as oil prices continue to tumble. While some expect gas to cost around $2.00 a gallon by Christmas, prices may trend back upwards as refineries are claiming their operations to refine oil are becoming more expensive and gas prices may no longer follow the declining oil prices. Some models predict that the Central and Southern Bahamas may experience the winds and rains of Erika by this weekend, before the system turns north and skirts towards Bermuda. Some say it is not China's declining economy that is causing the stock market crash, but it is Donald Trump's motor mouth. Trump is pushing for exclusivity by wanting to deport all illegals from the USA. He wants to build a wall between Mexico and The US and bill Mexico for the cost. He also wants to start a war with ISIS and take the oil they are pumping in the Middle East This is causing jitters around the world markets if not an all out panic. Finally our local police has shot 7 suspects in the past two weeks, killing five and it seems to have stalled the number of murders being committed.

Woe now, you are in The Bahamas. We so "we Bahamian" that we don't pay any attention to that place, what you call it?... the world???.....we got The Bahamas.......it what?... the rest of the world affects us......no man....you can't be Bahamian.....not a true, true Bahamian.

This is clearly a politically motivated witch hunt in a pathetic attempt to deflect the public's attention away from the Baha Mar disaster. And if he and the PLP expects the public to believe otherwise they must think we are all idiots!!!

Precisely put. But sadly thin skinned LBT took the bait and now the story is all about her big family name (no pun intended). LBT, like Minnis, cannot stay on point. They are much too easily distracted. The much much much bigger story is about all of the unreported or undisclosed conflicts of interest that our past and present corrupt parliamentarians have and have had whereby they have committed illegal acts for their own greedy self-gain, which gain they have shared with their family members, political friends, business cronies, sweet hearts outside of their marriage, and so on.

As we prepare for tropical storm Erika remember you don't have to buy candles. BEC gat us use to living in da dark

Deflect and distract as they may from the much much much bigger conflicts of interest issue endemic among our parliamentarians (both past and present), the Bahamian people must press this matter at every opportunity. You would think our parliamentarians like Christie, Maynard-Gibson, Minnis et al would know that today you cannot hide the proceeds of crime anywhere in the world. They can't even bury gold in the mountains of Tibet without it being traced and recovered! Their family members, political friends, business cronies, lovers, related entities and so on will all be forced to disgorge whatever share of the proceeds of crime they may have received. We have some corrupt fat cats walking around whose disgorged ill-gotten wealth will put a real dent in our National Debt!

The PLP are playing games here. On one hand, they wish to defame Dr Minnis so as to deflect attention away from their own wrong-doings and show that the FNM is also involved in conflict of interest matters; on the other hand, they don't want Dr. Minnis to lose his position as leader of the FNM because they don't want Ms. Loretta Butler-Turner to emerge as the party leader. I've said it before and I will say it again, Ms. Loretta Butler-Turner poses a threat to the PLP. She is of true leadership quality, and the PLP know it. This is why the PLP, particularly Fred Mitchell, are going out of their way to combine any attack against Dr. Minnis with an attack against Ms. Loretta Butler-Turner. The PLP's ultimate goal is to have Dr. Minnis' integrity destroyed, but not to the point where he is no longer the party leader come election time. It's so damn obvious what the PLP are trying to do. Sly dogs.
