It was good that he lost. If he would have won he most likely would have done what his predecessors did. We can't afford a bye-election.

I feel vindicated. I was one of the very few contributors on this post to support Dr. Minnis. All the talk of him been un-inspiring, wanton and lacking leadership ability has come to nothing. I refuse to allow newspaper editors to form my opinion. Both the Guardian and Tribune are now relishing in Dr. Minnis victory. I am quite sure they already had a piece written if he was not successful.

The original intent of the Act was to pressure the likes of Hutchinson, the Haewards and the St. Georges to sell their large land holdings. The Government provided exemption to the very entities the Act was targeting.

We get swing again. Wasn't the plan for us to manage our own airspace.

What companies are doing is giving renewal one year contracts. Pay vacation and severance at the end of the contract and called it a day. The responsibility is now on the employee to save their severance. The logic is simple, pay it now or wait tell the company is struggling and can't pay.

Yes, I agree the US is a bigger violator of human rights when compared to the Bahamas but that still doesn't discount our poor record. It is an accepted norm for young men out of the ghetto when taking into custody to be beaten. There is a total lack of discretion on the part of our police. A group of young men left my job site on the way to the bank and was stop by the police. The police found a joint in the car and even though one of the young men owned up to the joint they held them all over the weekend until they were paraded before the courts.How do you tell these young men, the police is your friend.

This government has no shame! Wasn't it just last year when a government minister felt that it was proper to read someone else's private email in parliament.

Maybe "yo all" have not notice, what we have is not working. I support anything that is not the status quo. I remember telling a young lady after her son quit school in the 8th grade. He most likely will end up in jail or dead. The young man is dead.

There is a thing call personal responsibility. I grew up with all of the maladies mentioned above and today I am a contributing member of society. It burns down to simply knowing what is right and what is wrong and the decisions that follows. If we buy all the excuses above then it feeds the narrative that "it is not their fault".So we do away with the death penalty and then later prison sentences. Don't get me wrong, I believe a strong family unit, education and jobs help but personal responsibility trumps them all.

Perry beg "I don't care what you do after the elections but I need you to open". CCA responded "how about the Parliament". Perry shouted, "Parliament it is and tell you what I will throw in the Senate also".
