Oh Happy Day! this one was not a good candidate anyway. he certainly cannot finance a run and everybody knows you have to find the cash yourself the run. the party does very little. what is sad is that Sands and suppposedly Neely couldnt convince anyone to donate to their campaign and or couldnt raise a penny. is this the kind of folks we want in government? A broke man who enters politics is a thiefin man. Broke! in need of the party to pay their bills. Good riddance if you ask me.

window dressing. they must have talked about the wife and kids or where to get good cracked conch on Arawak Cay since Kings closed.

party shoppers like this fellow can have a seat - self interest.

Sigh. Without vision the people perish. I think the PM is going to have to call their bluff. Well let me say that another way- He should call their bluff. The fact that these fellas don't recognize the difference between unionization in 1958 and 2016 is sad. In these perilous times, I doubt their members will walk off their jobs. They will be standing out there by themselves. Sandals set a precedent and workers know that if they walk off their jobs, know they will be told to keep walking. Ferguson and Pinder straight financially- unlike their members.

I really have to pray about my dislike for this man. He could tell me the sky is blue and I would have to check. Tourism has gone nowhere under his leadership- the first nor second time.

are you saying he bought Scotiabank's underperforming loans?

Don't waste the Bahamian people limited dollars on no commission of inquiry. We know what the problem is yet- we refuse to take measures to EXPOSE the crooks and make those who received funds from BOB and enabled the granting of the funds to them despite their questionable ability to repay to be persecuted. Apparently Mr. D is/was a Director of Bahamar and a good friend of Izzy - He has shown his hand and in fact never hid it. Can you say the same for out current government? Can ANYONE tell me what is going on with negotiations or who is involved? I understand his position and though - perhaps emotionally I don't completely agree with him, hated the Bahamar concept from the beginning and hope there is a faulty wire somewhere that burns that monstrosity to the ground- I respect his views. It would have provided jobs but to me Bahamar is not a sustainable model in the Bahamas and with increasing competition in the region just doesn't seem to fit the dimensions or style of tourism the Bahamas could effectively exploit moving forward. Just my ten cents.

Reach deep into your pockets Mr. Turnquest! Deep!

Not his choice I am sure- but unlike the rest of the political gangsters- he never hid his representation of them as a private lawyer. I am convinced Bahamians prefer being lied to.

That is ridiculous. Someone scared of this man because the Piranhas are out!
