Delaveaux is living a dream life ...... Get sacked by the FNM then win a big payout, interrogate his political tormentors, then wear a KPM for doing the bidding of his PLP bosses.

What a charmed life .........

Many Bahamians have been honoured by our Kings and Queens over our long period of history. This year that tradition continues with our new King Charles III. The monarch's honours are respected throughout the Commonwealth of Nations to which we proudly belong. It is a meaningful way to honour our people for their service to the community.
