These bellicose antics by union leaders have no place in the 21st century Bahamas!
It seems unions only exist to keep companies overstaffed!!

I wouldn't worry too much about an impact from the "Shell Deal" because it is most unlikely to happer

I love how these union leaders have the highest demands but bring literally zero to the table. I guess he thinks he can just shout at people and they will give him what he wants. Typical delusional boomer who is gonna be replaced by automation in the next 10 years or so. The good thing about robots is that they work for free, don't expect high wages and can't talk back to people. Lets make the Bahamas great again!

If they asked the consumer whether they would want cheaper power or to continue to pay the same so no jobs are lost i would guarantee nearly all would say cheaper power. People like this give unions a bad name, he is basically saying he doesn't care about the general public being made broke by the cost of BEC.

IN ALL FAIRNESS....THE UNION LRADER IS DOING ...HIS JOB ------------AS ....ELECTED .......AN EMPLOYED ......BY ......HIS ......WORKERS....And the fact that he continued to get the bestest for his workers is darn good...given these ....worst times with VAT taxation....and taxes taking the mostest ever from Bahamians especially the pore majority.......PAY IT NO MIND DAT HE IS GRABBILICIOUS...DETERMINED...SHREWD....CALCULATING......RELENTLESS....TOUGH....YET CARING AND CONCERNED AS TO THE PLIGHT OF BAHAMIAN..FORCED INTO . PROSTITUTES TO PAY BILLS......HE............THIS UNION LEADER ID DOING HIS JOB......AND SHOULD INSTEAD BE IN POLITICAL OFFICE........OR OPEN HIS OWN CHURCH.......TO BEST USE HIS SKILLS....,!!!!

Mr Maynard, please go sit in the corner with your fingers on your lips! It is union leaders like you who have helped to set this country back. If BPL needs to be automated in order to provide efficient service then I would vote 100 times for automation. All you unions do is take, take take. Selfish, while the Bahamian consumer suffers!

The selfish unions are hell bent on bringing down the whole economy ..... from the hotels ....... to the civil service ...... to the corporations ..... LORD HELP US!!!

ALL THE WORSEST CAN BE SAID ABOUT THE UNIONS.....till Kingdom cpme....Fact is there seems to be no means to contra their actions....from the Other side....despite the FACT there are paid salaried...Gubbermint Officials ....Experts......researchers fron the University of the Bahamas.....Analysts.....Legislative possibilities to enact.....Law to investigate any alleged wrong doings.....negotiatprs...HUNDREDS OF OFFICIALS THE GUBBERMINT CAN AN COULD HAVE BROUGHT TO CALL OVER THE DECADES TO COST THESE UNION ACTIONS TO SEE THD BEST WAY FORWATD FOR THE NATION....BUT HERE WE IS TODAY....RIGHT NOW TAXPAYERS ARE UPSET........HERE Bahamizms is paying all dis money for expert Cabinet Ministers and that is the most important one ------- dea
Ing wid CRITICAL CLIMATE CHANGE ..destroy nation.....Greenland ice fields melting faster than calculated.......an there is Minister all dress up in green bedsheet robe playing Super Hero wid lil school chillrens in school yard.....

My electric bills have now gone up over 34% compared with the same period last year for the last bill (October) released. Should the Bahamians take to the streets of the capital like the Parisians? The government is NOT LISTENING to the cries of THE People.

We do not have the guts to do that .......... nor are we that desperate yet.

But it may happen after VAT15, NHI, WTO, OECD and the Chinese own us.

Dimwitted Minnis and his cabinet ministers are banking on Bahamian voters being willing to eat mud pies first, long before it even dawns on them that they should've taken to the streets first to cause a vote of no confidence in Minnis as PM. LMAO

We will never reach that point. . .too many stupid politicos are around talking dumb childish stuff like this which will cause us never to reach a coherent national concensus based on real issues and not some jackass notions. . .which you seem not to be able to move away from. . .and yet you want to run this nation. . .LMAO about that!

The Bahamian population can only remove a Government at election time ....... There will probably never be another Vote of No Confidence in a Bahamian PM by his Party ....... The first (and last) time was the Dissident Eight crew back in the day ........ Ministers are too greedy and tied to PEPs to risk the sweetness of standing up for The People

Your may be right, but we can always live in hope. It's almost time for the Westminster vote. Wonder if our PM is paying attention!

Runner I do believe that the Bahamians will do that. . .reach the point of the "Parisian effect". . .only problem here now is that the "row in public" is by and large them PLP trying to swing us to get back into the house!! Remeber who marched during the WE MARCH thing. . .the people not the FNM. . .the FNM "hitched" they wagons onto the march. . .BUT THE MARCH WAS THE PEOPLE MAD AS HELL WITH THE PLP!! These marches, only PLP led unions striking "and een know why they striking. . .trying to make things look like things. . .WEEN ON THEY RUN!!

Doc them careful to watch REAL PEOPLE reactions to their work. . .they usually pull back when they see them "reel yard chickens" cut eyes and things!! Everybody done damn tired of the PLP and they dumb childish ra ra ray ray. . .gern bout by we business. . .ween into them damn organized criminals called the PLP!!! They are to us like one sweetheart telling a wife that another woman sweethearting her husband. . .only to get rid of the competition so that she can get the husband all to shesef!!
