Oh, then that's ok, as it isn't her fault. Maybe with the dreadful mail service we have, she never got the bill for 14 years either. And then the bank lost the cheques that she did send faithfully all those years, and the treasury applied it to the wrong account....
14 years? I suspect it has been longer than that. I guess $75k in pension isn't enough. Perhaps the PLP will ask for an increase in pension, or in Ishmael Lightbourne fashion, offer Dame Marguerite the Governor Generalship with a raise so she can afford to pay her bills.
Doesn't anyone pay their bills any more? Or are the politicians and their friends claiming "hard times" too? This is a disgrace.
And Dame Marguerite must be trying on her ball gown in anticipation and rubbing her hands in glee. How much will this gala cost the Bahamian people? And not to be rude, but remind me why we need a governor general?
Sheeprunner, I think that Lady Foulkes would get his pension for her lifetime if Sir Arthur were to die. Afterall, isn't Dame Marguerite already (and still) getting pension from Sir. Lynden? And the expenses keep on coming...
Nearly a year later and we are no closer to anything that means any sort of relief for these poor horses. It's all hot air and amounts only to a huge steaming pile of manure.
do something now!!! The poor horses are suffering each and every day. They need action NOW, not more maybes, considerations, strategies and other vague promises.
If the lawmakers can ignore and break the law, how the hell can they expect the common people to follow and abide by the law that they themselves flaunt and ignore?
Put them in jail until they comply. Treat contempt with contempt. Let's see how arrogant they are after a few nights in Fox Hill.
(And before General Crazy gets in a tizzy -- I mean ALL of them -- I don't care what party they represent. Lawbreakers are lawbreakers. Period.)
And the NIB is such a pillar of integrity and honesty, so we must believe the figures. And Shane Gibson is also such a pillar of integrity and honesty, so we must believe him too. If the government has created 30,000 jobs, then why are so many people out of work and the social services department has seen a 600% increase in people resquesting services (according to Melanie Griffith's budget contribution)??
What part of NO is hard to understand? The Bahamian people voted NO on the referendum, so why isn't the government closing the webshops down? The government works for US, the people of the Bahamas, not the damn webshops.
And I'm passionate about the "Bimini thing", as you call it, because I want to see a Bahamas that continues to be beautful and one we can all be proud of. What legacy do you want to leave for your children and grandchildren? If getting a few dollars now is enough justification to destroy our precious natural (and national) resources, then we certainly will be poorer for it in the future. It has absolutely nothing to do with party lines, and if you can't see that, then you really are crazy.
