When The Bahamas was a part of The British Empire ( before Independence) it would be expected for the host country to pay fully for a royal visit. Of course, back then, The Bahamad would be receiving monies from Britain and if the country could make a great enough impression on the Royal visitors, they may get something special like donations toward a school or hospital. That is not the case today and royal visits are very expensive with security detail and protocols. Go the rout of Jamaica and pay only part time f the cost.
Ingraham is telling Brave to go against the wishes of the Bahamian people and make the laws anyway. Of course Brave already knows he can only be a one-term PM so he will make the jump.’
Ingraham needs to go to church and learn more about.sanctity of holy matrimony before he encourages anyone to tamper with Gods laws. God made these laws and set them apart for a specific purpose. And because of the hardening of man’s (species, not race), he allows divorce for marriages that have become dysfunctional and/Or reconcilable.
Nothing but diversion. And Distraction.Bahamians wants to know about their future and what plans Brave Davis have in store for them. Although all proper procedures may not have been followed, the funds are accounted for. brave davis needs to tell the bahamian people , why he intends to legalize same sex marriage, marital rape and sex workers after the people rejected it.
Nothing more than diversion tactics. Seems to happen around budget time. Either when the budget has no substance or is loaded with more taxes on the Bahamian people. And speaking of taxes, as the government is gearing up its machinery to wring more taxes out of the Bahamian people even after two years of economic and social doom and gloom, what plans do government have to garner more revenue/taxes from cruise ships and their passengers? The ships are getting bigger and bigger and offering more and more amenities and tge passengers are leaving the ships led and less. So the cruise ships are raking in billions with cabins, casinos, bars, theme parks, swimming pools and other entertainment. Government must seek to raise the revenue from cruise ships. And don’t forget how much waste water they dump in the ocean. The newest cruise ship can carry 7,000 guest passengers and 3.000 crew. Ten Thousand people. With one flush a day that is 10,000 flushes. Now add the shower water and kitchen waste. Eric Carey says something is rapidly killing out the coral reefs. He call it’s ‘the corona of the sea’ but it posed a major danger to sea life. Is this country will. To trade it’s fishing industry to an increasing cruise ship industry and not collect and tangible benefits from it?
Everyone , probably except Brave knew something was wrong with the food distribution program and the white woman in charge lined her pockets and that of her friends, family and lovers, legally or otherwise. There was not only disparity on how food packages were being distributed but the content of food packages based on where they were being distributed. Ands some people not only never received a can of sardines under this program but also nothin from NIB.
They want you believe it’s about the gangs and marijuana but someone need to explain how the number of liquor stores in the inner city tripled since the pandemic began. Who owns these businesses and who is granting the licenses? They use to say ‘In Nassau there is a church and a bar on every corner. Now there’s less churches and TWO bars on every corner. And because these new boys also have a restaurant license, they be cranking out rum almost 34/7, wholesale and retail. The narrative that the gangs are in war for drug turf is a lie. People who sell drugs do so to make money and so they keep a low profile. They don’t get into gun battles. The nature of gangs is to disrupt peaceful communities and cause mayhem and commit murder. They sell drugs to support their operations. And if all the killings are about drugs, then the government should move to legalize marijuana and thus defund the gangs. Then there needs to be a publicity campaign against gangs. In the height of the pandemic the Covid-19 ads and the ‘get vaccinated ‘ ads were every three minutes in some cases. Start ad campaigns against gangs, guns and domestic violence. The common slogan is ‘if you see something, say something.’ The public does not trust the police enough to turn someone in. The murder at government house, which is supposed to be the most secure compound in the country still remains unsolved, and the midday massacre of half a dozen Bahamians. The black hawk invasions on local communities. So the assault is not just gangs. Fix the country!
If you don’t think it is not an organized turf war going on in the inner communities, can the commissioner please explain how liquor stores tripled in these areas during the pandemic. Who owns these stores? Who are granting the licenses? Why are the majority of workers in these rum shops non Bahamians? Why don’t these stores ever give receipts? Why are these liquor allowed to operate from 7:00 am in the morning until 2:00 am the following morning? Selling wholesale liquor when all other businesses are closed?
