There can be no right in doing these beatings. If the person is breaking the law arrest them and then let the judge decide the penalty. The police should not hit citizens of The Bahamas when and how they feel like.

Just making sure, will the PLP reverse getting rid of the penny if they get in? If not then they agree with it.

Well at least this confirms Minnis will be the first one and completely done PM over here. Good.

You must have missed the part where they have been giving away reusable bags for free. Also it will be a win for the environment, but hey who cares about that.

Didn't the PM himself say there was corruption going on over here (I believe it was to the tune of $200 million pa). Where is his proof of this? He can't say this NGO person should show the proof if he himself has not done so. And i haven't heard of any civil servants being taken to jail for corruption so how did he get his $200 million figure?

Sorry on my 60 i meant if he is a little over 60 now and retired in 2003 then he was in his late 40s when he retired which seems very young.

Whilst i understand what the writer is saying, if he is only a little over 60 now and retired in 2003 over 16 years ago, how can he think he should get a larger pension. A pension should be based on what you contributed over the years, so less work means less in the pot. I'll be lucky to retire when i'm 70 at this rate

Maybe the supermarkets should show what the price would be if there was no price control so the public could see. They keep telling us that without price control other items would go down in price, so lets see how low those would go and also how high the price controlled ones would go. Then we would know whether price control is good or not.
