Didn't he suggest the government should borrow money a few weeks ago, is his issue its application - does he believe in the stimulus check approach? Anyway, after the rile yall up and get y'all started with dumbness, in another 5 years y'all will realize they said a whole lot of nothing and be right back here in the comments talking ****. Then the DNA all they could talk about is pay cuts, yes cut the pay, a few hundred thousand in savings is great, thank you for the political gesture, now tell me how you gonna address the rest of the billion dollar deficit and employ the masses of the population right now, this year, next year, who have no employable skills outside of tourism.

I get fed up when educated people suddenly act ignorant and uneducated. Chester Cooper has to be totally insane to allow succumb to party politics and allow the PLP to use him to make a totally uneducated and ignorant speech. Just to try and make the implication that like other world government, we are not in this position because of Hurricane Dorian and even more covid19 is just plain fool. Carrels they are no where near competent and compassionate and no where near providing leadership.

And then to talk about the government borrowing when he was the one running to every talk show and saying the government should borrow. Hey, in these challenging times, the budget presented was very balanced. Maybe the opposition needs to learn to stop this business of opposing just for the sake of opposing.

It is clear that they had a prepared speech to read as soon as the budget communication was given, and clearly did not listen to what was in the budget.

Someone on the right doesn't quite understand how a mask works.

can't imagine they'd have much of a clue about how a country works!!

and looks as if he should start a weight loss program as well

suffers from physical misogyny as well.

Not only that, no physical distancing going on there. Besides, are not people over 65 (couple intuit picture) the most vulnerable to the virus and should be inside?

I am still so disappointed in Chester. I really thought that he was smarter than that. He had me totally fooled.

Chester knows better. I think he is hampered by having to placate thePLP old guard that sourounds him in the picture.

A large portion of our problems stem from their extravigance when they were last in power.

The PLP needs a whole new group of young imaginative thinkers. Insted, it held back by Brave and the rest of the PLP "Senior Citizen Parlimentarians".

It is sad when supposedly educated persons make fools of themselves just to try to score some cheap political points. If we are in financial trouble now is because for almost 50 years politicians did an excellent job in mismanaging the country's finances. And really the PLP should be the last to give financial advise to anyone,unless of course the advise is how to enrich yourself at the expense of the public.

Chester Cooper has sold his soul for political ambition. He's not the first and he won't be the last. He is sadly a product of Bahamian politics.

The PLP should sit small and shut up! If they had not wasted so much borrowing and wasting, we would have a bit more room to figure out how to respond to the current crisis. The PLP leadership are an integral part of why we are in the state we are in! Brave Davis and his minions are an absolute waste of time!

Threatre.Chester is playing to an audience.

They will blast the budget outside the house,debate it in the house and vote to pass it.

He is however partially right.The FNM made some bad fiscal policies choices.However the media here in the Bahamas don't understand or can explain economic policies.

Chester Cooper is a clown. what can the former garbage Christie administration show?
The PLP and FNM are baboons in running this country... but the PLP is a special brand of stupid

Standing behind podium wid sign "Competent Compassionate LEADERSHIP FOR ALL" just shows that they are being truthful they are advertising the current Prime Minister because the current PM should have way by now have this lot, cronies, cohorts all this time under seripus investigations for bad governance, corruption, victimizations, taking taxpayers money and funnelling it into blatant money losing govt agencies, govt majority owned, controlled enterprises, having political cronies in charge of agencies with currupt practices. They should not be talking "Leadership for All" themselves with short memorywhen the nation by democratic facility voted NO to Web shop number houses Gambling and they some 25 persons Members of Parliament voted against democratic nations voters....and the list of " all for me" ..can go on. Indeed their sign on podium just illustrates the uncanny unexpected softness the present PM is dealing with them and the hundreds of millions of taxpayers dollars done gone, unquestioned and mishandled under regime this present Opposition governed previous govt.

Wow, I can't beleive how many of you wasted time actually reading what the PLP has to say!

As far as any thinking person should be concerned, the PLP "as a party" lost all revalance with the dancing clown and "we beleive in Bahamians" promise. We will **NEVER** forget how the PLP never repeated the slogan after being elected, resurrected rejects like Alison Maynard to the highest positions in the country, gave away 100's of acres in Cable beach, conspired with the Chinese to sell out Sarkis, British Colonial, beat and stomped our people on Paradise Island bridge, money disappearing from road traffic, the post office etc, etc,'etc, etc,etc.

It was 5 years of injustice and pilaging the likes we have never seen!

Where the hell was Chester? Why didn't Brave, Alison, Fred, Doc, and Forbes stand up for the people then?

This FNM is far from perfect, but the PLP IS NOT the solution!!!
