There was a leadership crisis as soon as this cabinet was sworn in! No-one is leading and there are individuals holding office that are completely unfit for the purpose. Roll on 2017.
Clearly the Scots felt it was in their best interests to remain part of the larger United Kingdom. Independence doesn't necessarily lead to improved prosperity and social conditions. Oftentimes, it simply provides a breeding ground for corruption and egocentric leaders.

It is abundantly clear that the Attorney General has not received the assurances she needed to receive from the Financial Action Task Force that international banks based in the Bahamas will be able to accept deposits from "legalized" web shops. So what to do Prime Minister? Well, let's resort to your usual tactic of burying your head in the sand and pretend that there is no issue. Meanwhile let's plough on with the legislation in the hopes that a fairy pops up to wave a magic wand and make it all work out. Does anyone still believe in fairies? Me neither. So what options are we left with? Well the government can't force RBC, Scotiabank etc to accept deposits from web shops and so the only other options would be to allow such as the Bank of The Bahamas to accept the money (which would disallow it from trading with other internationally connected banks) or you allow such as Craig Flowers to set up his own bank with the same restrictions (i.e.no other bank would be able to accept cheques or transfers from this bank) So essentially, you have created one big holding house for web shop earnings that can't be moved elsewhere and can't earn interest. How would that take us forward? Where's that fairy when you need her?
Why is the DNA making the running on this? The FNM should be making much more noise. It's surely time for the official opposition to walk out of the House in protest. The FNM and all of its supporters should camp outside Parliament and refuse to move until the Prime Minister addresses the Nation's concerns over this matter. What an arrogant and dismissive attitude the "leader" of our country is taking. He is completely dissing the people who elected him. How dare he treat Bahamians this way.

Surely given all the controversy this should be a task for the Prime Minister. Pity we don't have one.
