Good statement Publius. It is plan and simple, Minnis is not good for the FNM, or the country for that matter.
He is divisive and his performance in Parliament has been overshadowed by members such as Loretta Turner Butler. Even his own Deputy has been more effective in speaking about the issues.
In 22 years they got the Container Port, GB Shipyard, Polymers, Bahamian Brewery, Pelican Bay Hotel to mention a few, several new office buildings downtown and a rebuilt hotel at Lucayan Beach.
Except for Nassau, no other island has had that much investment.
When your party members find themselves pleading for you to "rally round" the person that "they" have chosen as leader ought to tell them that they picked the wrong leader.
Not voting FNM as long as he is leader. Find another leader, but this time pick one who can lead more than just a few members in the party.
Man Tal, you are correct. There were 5 UBPs. The BDP was formed afterwards and ran in the 1977 election. Thanks, I knew you would set me straight if I was wrong.
