At least they have a semi functioning post office.

Everyone knows this needs to be done, unfortunately due to the political fall out from the last set of road building this will be put off for as long as possible, even though the land is already there and should be a lot easier to do.

Thankfully i don't. I just feel if people are to be released then prison should be used to rehabilitate people, and keeping them in the conditions they currently are does not do that, and will only lead to more problems later on (as is happening).

Well every time a boat goes missing we turn to the US to help. I am sure we would have a lot more boaters never found if it wasn't for the US. But i take it you mean like the Chinese in giving us a stadium (not for free of course but on appearances it was) as that is something you can easily see. I would assume the US gives us much more then people realise, and yes a lot of it is to benefit them but that is what every country does.

Looks like Maynard needs to ensure his members are able to use a toilet correctly and clean up after themselves if they don't. I would assume they are the only ones using these, so i would therefore also assume that it is them making this mess. Though there should be basic cleaning by someone, if it is as bad as described then the staff don't know how to use a toilet.

It is ridiculous that as a citizen of this country you have to take time off work to do anything involving Government. You want to renew your passport take one day and probably a few more, do anything at the register general take half day, and on and on. Not sure if the Government knows this but over 25 years ago a thing was invented which is called the internet. It can be used to speed up all of this, maybe apply online and send in all your copies of the documents you need, then book an appointment online so you know what time you will be seen. But no nothing will change as the powers that be have a total disregard for the people and couldn't care less if you waste day after day trying to get simple items done.

They should be offered what they are entitled to by law. If the Government is not offering that then they need to up it. If they are then thats it.

Headline is wrong. The debt added from 2012-17 is the $7,000 per person (they used 350,000 people which is a bit low). Based on that 350,000 the amount per person is $21,428 each on the total debt of $7.5 billion

If he had an ankle bracelet on this should be easy to clear up. If they can't find him with it on, then the ankle bracelet system doesn't work. If they say it is not on then the system doesn't work as the police should have been all over this straight away. Hoping for good news for the mother.

Just reading the World news and in the UK due to Brexit they are telling people with 6 months left to renew their passports. Apparently they think if they apply by today (online) they should be able to get all 3 million done by the end of the month. I know the UK is bigger but this shows efficiency that we will never have.
