The real magic trick they are performing, however, is the massive increase in stupidity among the population. It is truly amazing that people are believing this nonsense.

Somehow, most people don't realize that we have had Covid deaths because the Covid medicine has been outlawed.

If aspirin and Tylenol etc were outlawed we would have a massive increase in "cases" of headaches.

I'm sure that the Treaty to be signed on the 22nd of this month is nowhere to be found to be read. Has our Minister of Foreign Affairs seen fit to share a copy of this document with us lowly slaves ?

Why should we show so much care and concern for the "poor" - so-called poor ????????? Let them start showing some concern for themselves and buy some condoms or get the operation or whatever.

Talk about unfair? It's not fair for me to pay higher taxes because some bozos want to have 5 or 6 children.

The migrants who live here with more rights than Bahamians (free land for example) - don't want to pay no taxes to the Treasury. They want to send all their extra money back home to help buy wood and diesel to make boats. The only tax they pay is on fuel for generator and now they complaining they gotta pay VAT on rice and turkey-fly. Why should we let them live here tax free with free land, free clinics, free schools, while we work ourselves to death to pay rent to the landlord?

VAT should remain on ALL items and next year if the economy has recovered, then it should go back up to 12%.

Bahamians don't care anyway - they don't even want to know where their VAT money goes. This question has been asked since Sweeting ran for East End - and ain't no answer yet. We don't even have election results by polling division yet - and somehow the Pan American whatever they called issued a glowing report about our "democratic" process.

We got more problems in this country than conch.

They are not smart enough to realize that. Besides, they don't care about having rich people in the country to bring the average level up - they want us all to be EQUAL - even if that mean being equal beggars. In fact, they love equal beggars - easy to "pursuade" to vote a certain way.

Agreed

How much positive Covid test selling for now?

Since missing money has always happened in this country - this is a much better topic that Alfred Sears could have applied his recent "nothing new" comment to.

"Well the power outages to my knowledge is not novel in The Bahamas. The government has made a commitment to address the power generation by increasing and incorporating actually the amount of renewable and the power sources in the generation of power to achieve 30 percent by 2030. That will not be achieved overnight."

So the NEW DAY is not actually new?????? And are you saying that we should have waited until the year 2030 to elect you ?

Belinda, you're monitoring "cases" closely?
Glad you've got nothing imporrant to do. Us regular folk have got work to do and bills to pay. Plus we got to pay babysitters to watch our kids while yall at the beach.

800 people have died from Covid since Wednesday? Is that what you're saying???? OMG that's terrible !!!

"There will be a briefing today at noon by the Office of the Prime Minister giving an update on COVID-19 and its impact on schools."

Serioulsy?

Will he be SURE to inform us how many students have died across the nation from "Covid" since March 2019 ??????????????????????????????????????????????????

Of course he won't.

These are just some mentally ill individual who hate children, making mountains out of mole hills in their efforts to satisfy their perversion of hurting children to pay back for their own terrible upbringing. "I didn't get a good education, so I will ensure that nobody else does either". Wow. Truly sick.

how many students have died ??????????????????????????????????????
