Better yet, Fitzgerald could issue a Nolle Prosequi.

To all those who are trying to denigrate Mr. Newbold in order to give Mr. Gray a pass, I say "stop talking foolishness!". Mr. Zephaniah Newbold is no novice. He is a veteran civil servant, former teacher, and pastor. He is a native of Cat Island, and was trained here before his assignment to Mayaguana. He has never forgotten from whence he came. I would like to believe that the Family Island Administrators receive sufficient legal training to fully carry out their role of local magistrate. If this is not the case, then the Department of Local Government is committing a grave injustice against the family island residents who look to these magistrates to dispense justice fairly and within the bounds of the penal code. VAG must go! Enough already. He interfered, with a direct order. No amount of tongue twisting can change that.

I certainly hope that this spells the beginning of the end of VAG. I am sick and tired of reading of his rantings. The Bahamian public will be better served if he is no longer on the political landscape. He has done nothing, in his years of feeding at the public trough, to advance this country. Good riddance!

I wonder which idiot writes the headlines for these stories/letters? This headline is grossly misleading and has nothing to do with the authors sentiments.

Of course we want the cruise ships, and anything else that might bring a flow of dollars our way. I know, it ain't gonna happen under this government's watch. Brave is a disgrace!

If all of the incompetent government employees are fired there will be few workers left to carry out the government's business. We can't have that now, can we?

This article accurately chronicles the sad state of affairs in our country. Unfortunately, much of the blame for our sub-standard academic achievement, disrespect for others and the rule of law, and cavalier attitude towards the proliferation of garbage and junked vehicles cannot all be laid at the feet of the government (PLP nor FNM). We parents have largely abandoned our collective responsibilities and left the task of educating our children completely to the schools and the television sets. There was a time when parents played an active role in their children's educational process. They made sure all homework was done, attended all PTA meetings, and even dropped by the school to check on the quality of the teaching in the classroom. There was also the looming, unspoken fear of the "rod". While the political establishment is a direct beneficiary of an illiterate voting populace, they are not the driving cause.

......and who says the PLP don't look for their people? I wonder if this was Ezra's reward for not mounting a campaign against Brave in the last election? I'm just asking questions, Birdie!
