If Bannister wants to get people on his side he can release the details on what is owed and what is in the Contract. Then the people can decide if he is right. As it is i would guess that he is wrong and just using foreigner as a get out for his own incompetence.
So if the entire Cabinet and all other MPs who came into contact with Bannister are on quarantine does this mean they are unable to have the meeting in Parliament to discuss extending the emergency orders? In which case does this means they will cease to exists at the end of the month?
What is the point of the ERC if Government can decide not to implement certain ideas. Surely if there is the an economic case for it then it should occur. As soon as Government starts to reject ones it is based on politics, which is exactly why we are in this position.
All they appeared to have done is take all the ideas of the last 20 years that have never been acted upon and put them into one document. This document in turn will not be acted on except to be able to form a new committee for each idea which of course will be filled with the same old people who have not done anything to help this country. Then all that will happen is they will make plenty money and there will be no change. I am becoming more sure that we will have to collapse completely before we can rebuild better as our politicians have neither the brains or the will to do it themselves.
Is that not an option as these mortgages are from ordinary Bahamians, whereas when the loans where from the high and mighty at BOB this option was on the table straight away and used as quickly as possible?
So if i choose not to obey the competent authority nothing will happen to me? Asking for a friend. This is indicative of how useless we are as a nation. My only hope is that it brings the inevitable collapse a bit quicker as it doesn't matter who is in power all rules will be broken as and when certain connected people see fit. Then once we have collapsed hopefully we can build a better Bahamas.
IF the bond offering was oversubscribed, it means the rates that were tied to the offering were too generous. Acceptance of this rate shows how bad things are and the Governments desperation for outside funds.
How is the government making any decisions with 201 locations pending? If they were all on one island (except NP and GB) wouldn't that mean a serious problem? This is all a joke as they don't have any decent information from which to make decisions so they just make them based on what they know (which has always been our Governments problem).
On the second part about drugs, it is taking so long as it always takes long for our Government to change things. It can be down to one of 3 reasons. One they are incompetent . 2 they are trying to work out how it can benefit them financially the most, or 3 they are lazy. I reckon its a mixture of all 3
People are up in arms because those 3 days will do nothing. If he was serious he would lockdown hard for two weeks (i do not agree with this), but to lockdown for 3 days and then back to normal is stupid. But that is pretty much all this PM has shown since around June time.
