@stislez....... I somewhat agree with you; but not from the perspective of conducting a debate. Almost every leader addresses his countrymen thru use of the media and news reports. But in this case, the PM knew that a debate would only give credibility to a party that has no credibility (ie the PLP). The PLP was such a colossal failure that for the first time in Bahamian history a sitting Prime Minister lost his seat! They only got four seats in Parliament for crying out loud! And Brave Davis was the exact same one at the helm when our country was almost brought to ruin. So why would the PM debate him??? Why give a listening ear to someone who has already demonstrated to the Bahamian public that he is an inept, incompetent co-leader??? Debating Brave Davis would only serve his self interest by giving him credibility that he clearly doesn’t deserve. My grandfather always taught me never to debate a fool because bystanders would only see two fools debating.
@TigerB...... I agree with you. COVID19 is an existing nightmare for all governments (home and abroad). There is no government or country who thrived during the pandemic. Every country is doing its best to keep its head above water right now. And while some are doing better than others, we in the Bahamas should at least be grateful that we didn’t have to lay off any civil servants. We must be reasonable here.
In the case of COVID19, he’s telling the truth. I personally don’t rely on the government for much, but COVID19 blew me off track as well! Heck! It blew all of us off track! COVID19 isn’t an excuse, it’s a economic nightmare laced with reality! It crippled all of us! Businesses are just beginning to recuperate. Let’s be reasonable here.
This citation and detention represents a double standard within our justice system. If I remember correctly, those who were found in breech of the curfew were hauled before the courts. Why wasn’t this the case for Mr. McCartney?

Obie Wilchcombe???? The PLP can’t be serious. But then again, relying on the stupidity and ignorance of the Bahamian people is a good strategy.
On Obie back to fight election
