All of you "politicians" and "political propagandists" need to stop these continual deflection antics; nothing of substance for 6 months. Both parties are guilty of this incensing foolishness, and the idiotic Bahamian masses--the ones who seem not able to discern, swallow hook-line-and-sinker, every time.

The PLP is more pathetic and corrupt!

Birdiestrachan, call it what you may. The spouses, family members, and friends being appointed to boards in the government tell the story that needs to be heard--shouted loud from every mountain top. We will await the "Update" on those Bilateral meetings, from this costly vacation!

@tribanon "**Make no mistake about it, participating as it did in this most costly Dubai event was a disgracefully cruel act committed by the Davis-led PLP administration against the interests of the vast majority of suffering Bahamians.**" Very well said! There is nothing "New" about this Day's government...absolutely nothing!

@birdiestrachan, may I ask, "why don't you and the other politically-aligned agents and propagandists, of this "New Day Government Leadership", love your Bahamian sisters and brothers?" It is obvious that your politically-aligned condescending diatribe directed towards "The Editorial" page is the political tactics of deflection. Another question, "Do you and your colleagues, believe that all Bahamians have their eyes closed and head turned?"

We all realize what's transpiring, and it's not Productivity! It's the same political grifting, nepotism, conflict-of-interest, unnecessary expenditure, deflection, recrimination, and wild gesticulations - just another term of pathetic and disgraceful governance.

This administration did not get off to a promising start. There are many horrible characters disguised as individuals that have this country's best interest as a priority, but all of it is self-interest. The deflection-purposed reporting and continual politicizing of every facet of our society are ridiculous. The three-month spending is outrageous (entourage-laden trips all over the world that seem more like bucket list voyages), and conflict of interest appointments are not improving the way of life in this country.

He should be a "nail in the coffin" for politicians in this country. I appreciate that he alluded to the fact of how business is conducted by these politicians. They all have investments (directly and indirectly) in companies that are awarded contracts. Some are guilty of affording contracts to individuals and being given some "traditional" 10% of that contract. Bahamians go to the polls every election season, and vote for their interest and not that of this country.

*So, I can care less about all the conjecture surrounding what "Tom" does when "Jerry" is doing the exact same. All should be held accountable

Minnis and most if not all of the FNM party needed to be shown the error of their ways. But, "while we look to the new leadership to guide this country", this statement right here is a joke. The word leadership is used so loosely, there is no such word regarding Bahamian politics, the past 20 plus years. Changing a filthy underwear with a filthy underwear will never solve our issues. But, we never align ourselves with candidates possessing a shred of integrity...just ones that want to shake, and break the proverbial cookie jar.

@ThisisOurs, they start laughing hysterically

@ThisisOurs, exactly!!! Hence, the timing is just nonsensical
