Then go to Aliv, which you are able to do. Before this you had no choice, and the service was lousy. They need to get rid of all the state-owned enterprises. Then things may actually work better here for all, rather than the select few.

Oh thats OK then, as he was friends with both sides he can do what he wants with woman and we won't do anything. Thank God Canada and the US take a different view.

So this is the way the people who decide who we can vote for act? Not much hope for here there.

The companies that charge late fees have set charges. BPL can be $100 this month and then $1,500 next with no explanation. In addition those companies that charge late fees have competition. BPL does not. They are not the same and as such this should not have been allowed, and if allowed it should only kick in after 3 plus months, not 1.

Dawes says...

Strike, as sickened said we won't notice any difference. I think Ministry of works has been on strike for last few years, based on the roads. And whoever is in charge of maintenance has been on strike since their first day.

Dawes says...

I don't believe his declaration, but i don't believe any of the others or the ones at the last election. But as there is no repercussions who cares.

Dawes says...

The PLP was not that successful in the last general election. They won 52% of those who voted (FNM was 56.99% in 2017). Of those registered to vote they only won 34.14% (FNM 50.35%). This is not a success. the fact is Most Bahamians have no faith in either party, so just go with whichever one is not in power at each general election. It is only because of a lack of a decent third party that these two keep winning. When that changes they will go the way of all the other parties and the Bahamas should be better for it.

So effectively he is saying he is not the best person for the job, but the one the PM wants and therefore should be voted in.

Dawes says...

wait is she honestly saying that the ills of BPL are all down to this and not other things. In particular the hedging fiasco which she mentions has caused no issue for BPL. Is that because you have increased prices by 60% for the population, so that BPL won't be affected by it? BPL has serious issues which no Government for 20 years has tried to fix, i don't expect this Government to be any different. Finally to have a cost overrun of $20 odd million on a $95 million building is probably the most cost efficient overrun by Government ever. Would wish the Baseball stadium overrun could have been that small.

Dawes says...

Fully agree. The idea that because the person may have done something bad then it is ok is a stupid. We need a massive change in this country, which will come one way or another. However if we don't do anything that change will be a lot more painful.
