Like N. Korea, the average Bahamian knows no better and accept corruption and Ministers getting rich whilst their standard of living deteriorates. I see poor families in our settlement with their free PLP flags fluttering from their car and yet they have had absolutely nothing from the government of real benefit. A flag , $100 and empty promises and they give your their vote. So very sad.

Whomever wins has to do some unpleasant things if this country is ever to come close to recovery. Yesterday it was published that the Bahamas was the 7th most expensive country in the world to live. All these selfish politicians have done is store up a financial disaster for future generations.

He has all the responsibility for grade D which he stated was acceptable. Despite the rhetoric schools still want for supplies, Cuban teachers are hired who cannot be understood, do not know their subject and really have no reason to give their all as they leave after 2 or 4 years laden with western goodies. Look at this National diploma, once the non academic students realise they have no hope of graduating they give up. He talks the talk but also has to accept responsibility for the poor results.

Don't keep Bahamian dollars get USD like Shane. All the recently and past talented Bahamian students consider working abroad where your political persuasion doesn't matter, wages are better, prices are cheaper and your working environment better. Mind you I am told that the 52 week government employment program is about to start next week. If true what a coincidence ?

Dear Mr Fitzgerald an innuendo is a suggestion. These allegations are supported by facts. How can you possibly hold up your head and say with conviction when speaking to stuents about working hard to get a job when all the time you and your family are cornering the market ?

One more political bait, better get your money before the election.

The Ministry of Tourism has a large part of the blame as they full well know that during the Exuma Regatta all accommodation is taken and all flights including charters full.

Big difference because the necessary infrastructure is already here. However based on last years accounting the expenses to host this event were totally disproportionate to the small profit made and donated to the library.

Typical political pre election nonsense.

Whatever your political opinion of Christie the fact is the daily stress an workload on a sustained and daily basis is just to much to expect of someone 73 .
