The roof in the Auto-Mechanics workshop in Central Eleuthera High school has leaked badly for over 10 years, lights have never been repaired, doors not functional and exposed plug sockets. The Minister himself visited but nothing has been done and yes every year a substantial number (in excess of 20) complete their BGCSE in this area. $20,000 would have brought this unsafe building up to standard but it has never been done.. As usual country up to its eyes in debt, food prices sky high, VAT killing the little man but we still have money to waste.
Just think what the money wasted on Carnival could have done paying clean up crews, establishing many garbage bins (that are emptied) painting Bay street etc etc etc Wake up politicians as many have said this destination is becoming jaded and there so many other places to go that are much cheaper and much better.
Will be given to a PP supporter. Whilst we are at it could he Minister explain why we have this influx of Cuban teachers many of whom can hardly speak English added to which the Ministry is paying rental for accommodation roughly $600 month per teacher when there are often qualified english speaking teachers living in their own houses unemployed. Multiply this by several islands and the cost is enormous. Ah to hell with it, let's borrow some more money at increased interest rates.
This man has talked more sense in this one article than every politician from both sides of the house has in the last 20 years. He is absolutely on the ball-everything in this country is show including education and to quote another common phrase the government and their appointed underlings "couldn't organize a piss up in a brewery with free beer.
Mr Roberts forgets his party's promise that when re-elected they would solve the crime problem. This problem is complex and involves lack of education, poverty, the high cost of living and broken promises. Lets face it the average person educated or not looks at the leaders of this country, living the high life travelling all over the world (first class) ,living in large houses and not worrying about an extra few dollars on the grocery bills and says why am I expected to pay for all the wasteful spending over the past years by leaders of this counry past and present..
Amazing, it was the politicians who overspent over the years and put us in this position and now they are saying they can fix it. This 7.5% ??? Just imported two trailer rims with tyres. Cost ending up 100% on top of purchase cost when vat ,shipping etc are added. Also we are actually paying 8% in the shops.
