If Doc can name and locate 10 streets & corners in what he refers to as the inner city, then listen to his reasoning.

Tax Free zones in the inner city will create unfair competition.

not to mention benefit the rich like doc who own the property the people rent from. he doesnt have a clue how this would work.

The PLP is taxing us to death, spending money like a drunken sailor. Bamsi burn down no one jailed, carnival cost us millions and failed, millions collected in taxes no account of where this money went. When Ingraham did anything he was criticized but the people rejected the best Prime Minister this country ever had. Now MInnis is destroying the FNM. He had 4 years to prove himself and he has done nothing. Its time for Butler and Sands. Those who want to follow Minnis are burying there heads in the sand just like MInnis. The FNM can come back stronger and win with Butler and Sands. This PLP government is a disgrace and anyone who votes for them are burying their heads in the sand also.

I noticed he never mentions VAT free zones when he talks about the inner city. I just hope people realize that would be nearly impossible to maintain hence he usually highlights that the exempted taxes will be real property tax, duty reductions on approved items, don't remember about business license fee talk but that would be a mistake as well. All in all it "might" work in a regulated, law-abiding country but in The Bahamas it will just be used inappropriately and as a loop hole for people to cheat the system.

"Hell" is where Maurice Moore needs to go to, or where he came from; take your pick.

That is such an arrogant and assified position to take. If they leave the FNM now, the FNM would not even be the opposition anymore...it would be relegated to a third party status. He and the FNM need to focus on reconciliation and healing instead of driving this division agenda.

Maurice Moore is singing for the supper Minnis has promised him - the same plate of supper Minnis has promised to several other people by the way, but who's counting among people who clearly do not have the sense God gave a mule

If the six leave the FNM what party they will be? You must remember that each independent will be his/her own party. . .five individuals. . .not a grouping. . .single MPs! Doc will still have the sub-majority. . .the only other sub group in the house! If they leave. . .House War II will begin. . .who will be the big chief of the group. . .feathers will start flying all over again! POW!

Doc talks about wide spread corruption? has he looked in the glass recently? are his hands clean? Note he wants everyone to come together as one but on his terms. that he is Leader. and as far as his Tax exemptions goes how does he plan to do that in Grants town or any other **the hill arrear" Doc talk is cheap money buys land". Doc will do anything for power?

> Note he wants everyone to come together as one but on his terms. that he is Leader.

Exactly. His idea of unity is "do what I say and worship me or else you are out of here." He has refused to accept that he must take the lead in fostering unity. The man is intoxicated with his delusions and his lust for what he is clearly not fit to have. He and Christie are clearly drunk off the same batch.

**4 decades of failure and these clowns still looking to the FNM. Bahamians love suffering**

Moore is making the DNA look like a choice that may need a bit more looking into. Nobody just gets a vote.

Which coffin did Moore suddenly come out from? In no position to be making speeches!

The FNM party was left in a shambles by Ingraham coming out of the last general election which made it easy for the leadership of the party to be hijacked by a power hungry incompetent dingbat like Minnis. LBT and the other aggrieved FNM members of parliament need to accept that the FNM party is no longer a viable enterprise in Bahamian politics. This being the case each of them should make it known that they intend to resign from the FNM party at the appropriate time and run in their current constituency as an independent candidate in the next general election with a view to forming a new political party with other independent candidates who are successful in their bid to get elected. Minnis should be left alone to oversee the funeral and proper burial of the FNM party. Ingraham and Moore may see fit to attend the bereavement service for the FNM party given the role they played in its death.

Did Dr. Minnis promise this man that he would become the next Governor General. He is playing a similar role to Dame Marguerite in the lead up to the 2012 elections.

Yes he did. He made the same promise to others as well.

I hope these six dissidents resign from the fnm on monday and leave Minnis swinging in the wind. The self serving FNMs who are supporting this man's shenanigans and his nutty supporters apparently have forgotten the years of being in the wilderness. Ingraham spoiled yall and for some strange reason yall think minnis has the same political skill as Ingraham. These kind of threats are shameful and a price will be paid for them.

Democracy needs
Informed, participating, rational and educated electorate
Informative and responsible media/press
Rational and differentiating choices for governance.
Which of these things do we have?
