ssome people look good on paper, but still are incompetent in their positions.
It is the Peter Principle at work.

I would never call attention to my PLP affiliation, because that might have been the grounds for my appointment in the first place, and if i were to leave the postion, i would have a hard time fifinding another job anyway.

To be fair, being a PLP should be considered a criminal offense. I want no members of the PLP affiliation in any capacity with government, their top priority from inception has always been to enrich themselves.

The irony behind this statement.

Lol being a PLP is a criminal offense but the only conviction of corruption in the history of The Bahamas rests on the record of an FNM Meritorious Council Member.

The irony of the statement is baffling.

Don't worry, the list of PLP crooks awaiting trial is long and deep. We'll just await the outcome.

IF Frank Smith's trial is the precedent for PLP's prosceution,

FRED RAMSEY - FNM MCM MEMBER will in the near future - remain the only parliamentarian in the country's history ever convicted of corruption.

Must stink for the party he represents.. especially seen as past FNM Deputy Leaders were also implicated in the trial - barely missing prosecution.

May the real Frank Watson please stand up and be recognized.

The irony is that your name suggests your support of BahamasForBahamians but yet you defend the PLP. Didn't ya ma ever tell you that you best watch who you associate with???

Bouy you really "don't know nuttin". . . Simeon Bowe, Wilbert Moss, Kendal Knotage, Brave Davis can't go to the USA etc. . .and them are the ones that could "be touched" by the police them!! I suggest that you "don't go there". . .if you do. . .you will go "get some of the PLP" who got away with their crimes and "deal" with them yasef. . .if it is ever possible for you to become "clean" when it comes to the PLP skulduggery!

Not true. You forget about the conviction of Wilbert Moss the PLP MICAL MP.

Any one remember the 1984 and 1993 Commissions of Inquiry??? .. Awwwww

These comments are pathetic. Immature bloggers that add nothing to the national dialogue except crass stupidity.

No degree, but running an airport? Degree in biology, but running an airport?

when they retire, they will pilot charter planes to andros.

BOL ......... It is called PLP SLOP-style entitlement.

No degree, but running an airport? Degree in biology, but running an airport?
People who accept political posts gracefully, must also accept losing the post once the government changes.

Ma Comrade Sisters, rightfully raise all hell if fired knowing you both were not hired on politics but resume merits. It should be mandatory for ALL if politically appointed government positions to resign on the very day an new general election writ is dropped. Few realize it but once the general election bell gets rung - constitutionally, except in case emergency, every cabinet minister are left no power to act as members of the cabinet... in fact they also lose the right to continue the use their vehicles or to show up for work. The only exception is the PM and even his/her authority becomes restricted. Unfortunately, no one ever seemed have reminded former cabinet ministers of both major parties of this important constitutional provision.

this is easy - anyone who has ever flown through one of those shitholios would wonder if anyone besides airline representatives were employed to work at the airport.. And that fact that they supposedly have sterling records is easily attributed to hands free operations Hanna. Everything else in her portfolio was turned to Schite.... it's logical that all the airports besides Nassau and Fre (the only ones she didn't really run) are shiiteholes.....

Really both were identified for the job.???.. because they were cronies.....otherwise no real reason to hire them to work at airports?

Mr Chairman Mitchell......sit small and shut up.....this happens under all Governments when elected to office....His dumb ass was also fired to for being a PLP. It goes with the times.

Lol! These women acting like PLP's - no shame. I wonder if they even know where the airports are where they work. PLP's aren't known for showing up on the job very often - here, punch my card for me!!!

Why would a person make their political affiliations known on a job they are qualified for?
The advantages of making those affiliations known if you are NOT qualified and the party you support is on power are obvious!

No news here!

I have never traveled through that government facility to cast judgement or bias statement like the other commentators. However, when it comes to being fired, a reason should be clarify to the individual, a reason that shows the employee is not producing to the organization goals and foundation. As Bahamians we should be seeking the same information these ladies are seeking, cause any day ...it can also be you... Stop being blind by political racism and inequality because of who and what you support. The Time is UP with that foolish. Bahamians suffered this same mentality from Black and White..... Male and Female..... and now this, base on a corruption assumed but not as yet confirmed through the law of The Bahamas

MFJ

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. . .PLPs were picked for the job. . .nobody else was told about the need to filled posiyion. . .

More than likely these people were the typical unqualified political appointees. If so, then they should be replaced with qualified individuals capable of enhancing operations **regardless of political affiliation.**

On another serious note, as a frequent interisland visitor, family Island airports leave much to be desired. Most that I have seen are inadequate, poorly maintained and a major embarrassment!

If funding is the issue, why not attach a small "service fee tax" to each passenger ticket towards the upkeep of family Island terminals.

A simple $2.00 fee per traveler would be painless, and go a long way in generating funding for the upkeep of buildings, bathrooms, landscaping etc.. Upgrading our tourism product starting with visitors first and last impressions cannot be overstressed!

Man I can't stop laughing. What a joke. And these plps don't have any shame.

I lost my job because my bosswanted to replace me first with his cousin and then with a PLP minister's wife. Happy to have had the job but when they don't want you then you move on and find another. What's the old saying: "As one door closes another opens". Bottom line when you work in any job it's yours for a time, not a lifetime. Under employment law, you can be let go at any time for a reason or for none, the only issue being whether you are justly compensated in notice pay or its equivalent at the time of termination.

once you are enployed in a government entity,you are first and foremost a civil servant,and there are rules to conduct yourself,and there should be no discussion in your mouth about ppolitical parties while you are on the job.people do a lot of things politically that they should not ddo

The lady who was elected to a political position in the PLP party clearly knows that she is prohibited by GO from doing so. . .in fact it is expected that all CS who aspires for political offices are expected to resign or be removed from the service.
