Dear PM, Bahamians never asked or expected a perfect government, but we asked for and deserve a competent one. You have not been able to provide either. At this point, the greatest public service that you and your seemingly loyal four blind mice can do for the political life of this country is to bow out of frontline politics, step aside and go away.

You are on a roll! Who owns the majority of properties in the "inner-city"? By and large it is not the people who actually live there. So who will benefit from these incentives? How will it be monitored? Sounds good, but no sound plan regarding implementation can be heard, because like the GOP healthcare plan in the USA - none exists.

Well_muddah_take_sic is right DDK- and your inability to only see half of the picture through your partisan glasses is the kind of viewpoint that brings corrupt politicians joy and a comfortable sleep each night. That Lanisha Rolle - a sycophant of Minnis, who clearly demonstrated her loyalty as well as her complete unsuitability for public office was ratified for Sea Breeze only proves his point.

untouchable, access to no other prospects so lucrative and NO shame.

f its close- lets hope a few go independent to keep these evil people's toes close to hell's fire.

"potential damage to the event’s brand"? lol. What brand?

Why am I not comforted by this statement?

you "would think" but we don't live in a normal society where "thinking" is valued, where embarrassment produces shame and where licenses in the face of a case of this are scrutinized independently. Insurance is nothing but a 'respectable' mafia style shakedown in the Bahamas. Whoever called this one in is a heartless money grubbing hack and needs to rot in the warm folds of the devil's rear.

TalRussell you are right, but if there is one thing Stephen Dean has always understood it is optics. The people he is attempting to appease, are pleased with his "display" of control. He knows exactly what he is doing and if he has his way, he will be the next commissioner of police.

I am going to print this out and see how your predictions unfold. If you are right, even half right, you need to do the right "Bahamian" thing and start a church.
