The articles states " noting that former MP Neko Grant held it for multiple terms..." So the people of Central GB want to keep voting FNM after seeing with their own eyes to SEVERE downfall of GB since 1992, and how both the PLP and FNM want to place blame on that downfall on the very people who made GB great up until about 1984 ? Seriously? The people will choose to vote for Barabbas instead of Jesus, again? Poor COI. Bahamians just love it when things suck. They will vote for more abuse. 50 years is not enough.
Freeport is owned by China. Too late for that thought. Successive governments have sold various parts of the Bahamas to keep VAT at 10% instead of 20% for fear of losing an election. Silly thought. They could make VAT 50% and Bahamians would still vote for them.
Birdie, it's no surprise that you would defend our government in any event LOL. Where's Tal? He should be here ringing a cowbell too. The Bahamas does not manufacture salt for human consumption from Inagua to the family table. It is exported. Why? Why can't we even make a toothpick in this country? Don't worry. We don't export anything except our money and Bahamians LOVE paying high taxes anyway, so it don't matter. BPL fuel surcharge, land conveyance, gas & diesel tax, import duties, VAT, and VAT on duty, we just love that stuff and will vote PLP or FNM next time or stay home. That's just how we go.
All good points, but the passports that Trump is worried about have already been issued and many more will be issued before election day. 3rd generation Bahamians will be outvoted this time. They kept voting for these two parties long past their expiration date and now it's time to see the results.
Nothing will happen. Bahamians love potholes and broken skules and cheap labour. They will vote the same way they have done the last 50 years. PLPs who are upset with government will stay home and not vote because they know their ballots are numbered.
The Government should charge every tourist, even those that come on regular airlines, a $50,000 Visitor's Fee in order to set foot in the Bahamas. Yeah, that's a great idea. Oh yeah. LOL. OR they could be given the option to just pay $25,000 at their travel agent in the USA and not have to come at all, and save a lot of stress.
Climate change ? LOL Climate change ? LOL Climate change ? LOL Climate change ? LOL Sending and fire trucks on that marines boat? LOL. No, of course not.
So Pintard and Brave want to cut taxes so they can continue to have "no money" as an excuse to not fix potholes and school windows. Uhm. Ok. Don't worry though, the Bahamian people will vote one of them into power next year. They don't trust any other Party to "have the experience" to make their lives better. Uhm like these two have? LOL
