it's not a jewel in Kerzners crown- he was forced to sell it three years ago. he lost Atlantis and has no financial interest in it- perhaps Bahamar will be a part of his redemption story ...

$11? u have got to be kidding. 11 bucks? a month? I hope they get this in cash or in the form of a monthly lunch.

might have been really interesting to see the three youngbloods form a third party while still seated in the house. everyone wants to be leader- sigh - that is going to be a problem moving - I would like to say 'forward' but with this much ego - it won't be with these two.

mmmm. she is usually very slow in her speech. interesting that you can't understand what she is saying. that reflects more on your capacity than her ability.

This man should not be the number two in the opposition of this country. Curtailing civil liberties wont work because they cant work now. The minute one bahamian see a politician breaking curfew to run see sweetheart number 10- it over. We want law for errybody else but us. The Bahamas is in some serious straights with crime but some 21st century policing, linked databases, organization and tighter procedures, properly administered and maintained tracking and survelliance systems, a devoted cadre of detectives that DID NOT come up in the ranks, but went to college, did other things and can serve admirably in this capacity would help tremendously. I am of the firm belief that one of the problems with the RBPF is its policy not to hire after a certain age along with a kind of social promotion system- the longer you stay around and do the basic stuff, the higher you rise, even if you haven't had a new idea to save your life in 20 years. Meaning they get people who had few other options while young, who may not be suited for the job in many ways including critical thinking, health, values, ethics, education, leadership qualities, shooting skills, english grammar, ability to figure out complex webs of relationships, interview suspects, and desire for the work. etc. etc. You can't get water from stone. My minimal encounters with the RBDF have been dismal- Try go paying a traffic ticket- how do they find anything? Your house get break into - see how long it takes for them and the finger print people to get to your house while the rain wash away the evidence. Take your time to give statements and see if you ever hear back from them. Understaffed and too scared to hire older, focused and potentially more competent people to help them. Madness.

You forgot- Introduced VAT without the reduction in customs duties as proposed.

Not that this will matter to you- but if you have had to read job applications recently- you would understand what he is trying to say. I imagine he gets quite a bit of applications on his desk and would know what he is talking about at that level of the workforce.

Mmm. Feel sorry for the old guy and sexual harassment is wrong but there is no regard for those who are lured into sex based on the Promise of promotion . Their husband or wife should divorce their selfish ass because they didn't respect marriage in the first place. And were to lazy to get promoted the old fashion way- working for it- and not on your back. If this wasn't the Bahamas I wouldn't believe that a spokesperson would lump these situations together - oh lord how did we get to the point where we don't even know right from wrong.

we are there John. the rule of law is compromised in this country on many levels. I have never seen a gun store in my life in the Bahamas but guns run the streets- where are they coming from? How do they get into the country? They arent the only ones to blame but the lawyers of this country-Game the system in order to make a living from the criminals they defend- clog the system putting off cases over and over again so that these life time criminals abuse each other, me and you and the system over and over again. i have seen it time and time again with my own eyes, with my own family member who is now six feet under. he would have been safer in jail.

Left with a dysfunctional system? If the system was functional this would never had become an issue. We have a very unhealthy population and are being ravaged by cancer. too many people already cant afford proper care in this country. getting sick is one thing, realizing you will go broke trying to make yourself better- that alone will kill ya. I want a ratings system for doctors at the hospital. too many people go there and die for no apparent reason...another one just today. RIP.
