One must "painfully" accept, with such a Landslide Mandate to effect wholesale fundamental change, not very impressive so far. Addressing corruption is both necessary and laudable, but job creation through inward investment is far more impressive, as indeed without same, you are merely fostering the environment that created the need for corruption in the first place, as if everyone was doing well, there would be no need to "skim from the till". Regrettably, the opposite is occurring with reductions in the Public Sector's Work Force and Budgets, which again are both necessary and laudable, but the same must be off-set by "new" Private Sector jobs, otherwise you are making people even more desperate to survive in an environment which is already primed for corruption as a means of getting by.
You are actually the one missing the point, W&S payment occurred nearly 2 years prior and irrespective of "most favored status", which in itself should have been challenged or at least, "questioned", this BPL payment occurred "immediately" prior to a General Election, making the timing completely unacceptable and most likely fraudulent, yet signed off on by a complicit Board "without question" who are accordingly also accountable for such malfeasance. Hope you now get the point.
The point is Messrs. Beneby and Hermans did not resign and were thereby complicit in fraud, which begs the question as to how they run RBC and Family Guardian?!? Andrews is in a slightly different position, as Nassau Glass is his personal Comany, whereas Beneby and Hermans are responsible for making decisions concerning "other" peoples money, hence the "supposedly" enhanced fiduciary duties.
This appears to be fraud to which the Board appears complicit, in which RBC and Family Guardian are obliged for the sake of Customer and Investor confidence to fire both Messrs. Beneby and Hermans forthwith as their respective Heads!
.... and, as we have now all seen on Social Media, response time may well depend on whether or not our highly trained literate sophisticated concerned Officers are too preoccupied drinking and driving to consider responding to Crime in progress. As with every other Government Ministry, Department, Corporation, Agency or Office, 80% should be fired tomorrow if there is to be any hope of returning to a normal functioning Society.
Maybe, but we are talking about Self Protection where the State has failed. When someone breaks in your House to Burgle or Rape you or accosts you on the Street to Rob or Rape you or rear ends your Car to Rob or Rape you, would you rather be able to: A) Say Hello to my "little" Friend Punk; or B) Grovel in Misery in the hope of your Life being spared for the sake of your Children, only to have them later in Tears identify your Body in a Pool of Blood?!? Time to get real Bahamas!
Add to that the right of Private Citizens to bear arms, as when the State fails to protect Private Citizens, the Private Citizens have an inherent Human Right to protect themselves and their Families. Is it not interesting how in Abaco where most households possess a gun that there is still virtually no "gun violence", notwithstanding many of the same issues Nassau has been inflicted with due to population growth from outside.
BLT must have been proud to see her "SuperStar" Senate pick go into one of his delirious rants on the Steps of the Court! Still got to ask: "What was she thinking?" In any event, this decision, perhaps more than any other, ended her politcal career forever.
Dorsett is a relatively "small" Fish and I just hope he has not become the Sacrifical Lamb in a slowly unfolding Game of Politcal Chess by "much bigger" Fish on either side of the aisle.
If Minnis follows through, he won't have to worry about 2022, as they will all be locked up! If not, he will go down in political history as the biggest fraud to date. How's that for motivation?!?
