Thank God for the DPM and PM’s Wife being of sound mind … as for Munroe … he has embarrassed this Country on a level like no other in our History … he should not be allowed to “resign”, but instead must be immediately FIRED … and stripped of his QC appointment, as there is no way in a civilized society that he can serve as the Minister of National Security or continue as a QC if he does not appreciate that the whole reason for a statutory minimum age of consent is to protect the most vulnerable until they too can make responsible decisions … again as the Minister responsible for National Security no less and as a QC whose oath is to the Law first and foremost, Munroe is a disgrace beyond comparison … we may have many issues, but we are not the Taliban!

Whatever the Anti-Colonialists may think, being apart of the Commonwealth and adhering to English Law have ensured that we are considered to be far more than a relatively insignificant population of 400,000 among the larger and more developed Nations of the World.

Well Hosted Bahamas … God Save The Queen … God Bless The Commonwealth!

Repair Columbus … leave History alone … including Statue of Pindling at Airport … History is just that “history” (good & bad) … learn from it!

This Woman should resign out of respect for the Bahamian People if the Environment is truly Carnival’s first and foremost priority … but she won’t as Carnival is the “worst of the worst”, so instead our Penalty should be settlement of our National Debt, failing which a complete Ban of ALL Carnival “Group” (ie. all Brands) Ships from our territorial waters … something tells me we might finally be debt free!

… you got that right!

This Case is a bizarre and confusing mess … and dare say this most peculiar judicial reasoning helps. There is no question that Common Areas that should have been handed over to POA and now ordered, should be. However, Damages for the Beach Reserve is inappropriate, as they can never be calculated to properly compensate Home Owners for the lack of Beach Access “forever” more! With respect to the proposed Marina, this is tricky, as if approved, it would indeed appear as if the Judge is inserting herself into such process, but yet states “… the Court has not set aside planning approval - and cannot do so”. Such reasoning is illogical and contradictory. As for 8 years … 18 months to render a Judgement … but yet circulating in “draft” prior?!? … this is obviously reprehensible and can not be excused, much less equated to “discretion”, but rather must be addressed if our Judiciary is to be taken seriously.

Arresting these Vessels could well entail I’ll thought out Legal Advice, as if the Cruise Owning Parent is bust, there could well be no money forthcoming, unless the Banks that hold First Priority Mortgages agree to pay off debts to protect their security, but why do this if you are a secured priority lender and risk not being able to recoup?!?

Hope the Law Firm gave proper advice and acted on clear instructions based thereon, as the $2.1mil. debt could pale in comparison to the Costs of funding these Arrests until release and could well serve as Legal Precedent in the Shipping World as to “what NOT to do”!

Well put and articulated.

… very sad … the impact of such losses are felt for many years in such small Communities …condolences to the Families.
