Typical bahamian politician. Make promises and don't know how to fulfill them. Just like the previous PM.

Bahamians continue to ignore the fact that is a massive brain drain away from this country.This has been ongoing for years

Mr.Greenslade departure from the police force and appointment as high commissioner was poorly handled.

Please Mr.Turnquest , if you have any evidence of criminal wrong doing, turn the evidence over to the police.Let them investigate the matter and present the findings to the attorney general. The attorney general will decide whether to prosecute the individuals.Let these people have their day in court We need to get on with the governance of this country. The election is over.
By the way since you seem to be a novice in these matters, let some veteran politicians tell you the various schemes that have been done to win elections in this country.

The FNM needs to have a plan to deal with the deficit. They should have upon assuming office

1. Required all permanent secretaries and department heads submit plans to reduce expenditure by 20% across the board.
2. The National Training Agency should be discontinued.
3. Urban Renewal should be discontinued.
4. Junkanoo Carnival should be discontinued.
5. Subsidies to all government corporation should have been reduced by 25%.
6. All outstanding monies owed to the government ,and it's corporations should be collected.
7. Reduction in staff of the civil service by computerization of processes.
8. No more issuing of padded contracts.
9. Strict adherence to proper purchasing and procurement processes.
However I will venture to say the FNM won't do these things.They will just continue to talk

.

I am disappointed in the Minister of State for Legal Affairs. A few months ago. he was opposed to the PLP's version of this bill. The current version of this bill he tabled in parliament is worse than theirs.

Stop-over air arrivals as a segment of tourism arrivals has been stagnant for years.Our competitors in this region, namely Cuba, Jamaica and The Dominican Republic are experiencing growth. Like a previous commentator Banker said, the tourism product the Bahamas offers,the modern tourist does not want.

Tiger B's comment is very true.I was told of an ACP who was promoted in the pre-election rush who does basically nothing on a day to day basis.I was also told of a senior officer who got some major promotions working in urban renewal program.

Many persons elected to the house are not legislators or have been trained as legislators. All power lies in the executive branch of government.That is one of the reasons every body seems to be a cabinet minister.

The government has a weak hand in talks with the cruise lines. The city of Nassau and it's cruise port has no must see attractions for tourists and locals.
