It’s quite easy to discern Fredrick McAlpine’s motive within these general elections. He’s simply one of a dozen disgruntled, dissenters who were once FNM members of Parliament. His motive at this point is to undermine the FNM party by scattering votes within the Pineridge constituency with the hope that it will ultimately cost the FNM this seat. His actions have less to do with the people of Pineridge and more to do with his personal vendetta against Hubert Minnis. It’s an effective strategy that’s all too common in Bahamian politics. Branville McCartney did it to Hubert Ingraham too. So I wonder what Reece Chipman and Vaughn Miller are planning on doing to undermine Hubert Minnis.
Your comment here has nothing to do with the above mentioned report. However, I understand where you are coming from and I commend you for your position. But the simple fact remains that an independent candidate remains virtually powerless if he/she is elected. Politics is a dirty game. And without support from neither the opposition or the government, what can an independent representative do to render any meaningful assistance to his/her constituents? In theory, an independent candidate sounds laudable. But in practicality, it’s useless. Haven’t we seen this scenario before? Since Sir Roland Symonette I can’t remember any independent candidate winning a seat in parliament.
Whatever lady. You entered politics for the same selfish, self-absorbed, self-gratifying reasons your PLP colleagues did. To align your own personal interest. If you truly want to help people, you don’t need politics to achieve that. Spare us your BS.
Yes, we all know that this is the sound your brain makes. And yes, we’ve all discerned by now that you slept through school (if you even went to school). So you don’t have to constantly remind us that you’re asleep at the wheel. We are all quite aware.
Y’all people really stupid, yanno? There is no “fear mongering”. People are dying despite our best efforts to save them. And the statistics are correct…. non of the deceased were vaccinated. People like you talk foolishness because you are not confined to the ICU to see what’s truly going on behind these doors. These people plead with us to save them right before going into respiratory arrest and eventually die. Stop talking rubbish please! COVID is all too real.
Frank Watson and others may get a big surprise. Too many Bahamians are irrational, unreasonable, and illogical. They demand miracles from the government and when it’s not provided they get angry and vote out the government. If the PLP wins the people will turn on them and vote them out as well.
