The police are helpless. We have fostered a nation that seems unable to parent decent kids. The police come from this population. We continue to scrape the bottom of the barrel, wondering why we see the results on a daily basis. And then, with a national deficit in education, we are left scratching our heads over what to do. This is predictable, and will not change until we achieve a literate population of caring adults. We are a few generations away from that goal, if achievable. Get used to the violence, it is here to stay for a while. If we had an educated group of leaders who cared about their country, it would be a good start. But, we don't. They like to fly around to other countries, eating and drinking on the taxpayers dime, talking trash and who knows what else.
"The entire deal had Davis's blessing, and if Davis were an honourable man, he would have by now resigned as PM and Minister of Finance in the circumstances." You are obviously correct, but to ask someone who has no moral compass, as a criminal defense lawyer, to all of a sudden, find honesty and horourability, is like asking for the sun to rise at night. Not in the cards. This man could be caught doing anything, but would deny it to the person standing there watching it happen before their eyes. No honesty, no moral compass, no integrity. This is who we voted for. So, are we any better? A vote for PLP is a vote for corruption to continue.
"Smith said local pharmacies had written to Dr Darville twice last year requesting details on the transition plans for the Chronic Drug Prescription Programme but had yet to receive a response. “It is tiresome,” he said. “All we’ve been asking from day one, let us partner with you to help you make what you’re trying to do the best possible thing for the Bahamian people and every single time, we have to beg and ask and almost go into the public media and embarrass them to the point where they have to talk to us.” This should be reason alone for Darville to be removed form office. However, he fits in well with this PLP government which is merely seeking to take as much as they can for themselves. Our government is a disgrace, and has no intention of helping, or of even being accountable to the Bahamian people. It is sad that we are not able to see through the bullshit words that these politicians use. They have no interest in anything other than helping themselves. Is the response from the BPA not an indictment of the corruption and dishonesty coming from this government? Yes, or no?
Charlie Harper can laugh all he wants. The truth of the matter is he has been a cheerleader for these obnoxious fools for far too long, and now he wants to twist the truth. The world is burning because far too many have remained silent, cashing their paychecks while Rome burned. Shame.
"She said at the primary school level, 85 percent of students who had a GPA below 1.0 are now above 1.0. At the junior level, 80 percent of students with a GPA below 1.0 have also improved, and at the senior level, 83 percent of students have surpassed the 1.0 threshold."
Is it even possible to set the bar any lower? Our entire nation is a disgrace regarding educational outcomes. There are more illiterate and alliterate adults per capita than should be legally allowed. It is a great case for the elimination of democracy, given our so-called "political leadership disaster" by the people.
So Tribune, I "Tried Again Later" to read the story, "Everybody is Scared as Hell, on mounting Trump tariff confusion." Where is the article? Who killed it, and why?
Another reminder of why it is important for our PM and his climate change / sea level rise entourage to again travel the world demanding money from other people. And, like the Rubis oil spill, only The People will suffer.
It is also useful to see the Zionist connection to all of this. From the words of Nelson Mandela to the mining operations in South Africa, nuclear program, and the holocaust happening in Gaza and the West Bank today, at present.
