Wrong, again.
Meantime, *this* is the substance of their legal argument?! What a colossal waste of the Court's time and for what?
> We hope that Bahamians will not be subjected to a repeat of the Fitzgerald case, which is still under appeal, and, therefore still in judicial hands.
I think the Tribune's love affair with the Save the Bays crew is pretty much public knowledge, but what should be of knowledge to the writer is that the Courts have no jurisdiction over the proceedings of Parliament.
But that is the sick part. The lives lost are that of actual human beings, but all these lowlifes on both sides see is numbers and how they can use them and twist them to their advantage.
> “I think it’s time for him to go,” Mr Turnquest said when he was contacted by The Tribune. “Well there is no question that people feel what they feel. It makes no sense telling people something different, but you can’t throw your hands up in the air. I think it’s time to get rid of them.”
What is the point in contacting him for comment? How does this productively add to the dialog on this very serious issue? What else is he going to say but Christie gatta go? No s*** Sherlock. Now can we get down to the business of the state of this country, since Christie going in and of itself is not going to suddenly stop violent or drastically reduce violent crime in this country. So once Minnis is in the chair, everyone is going to throw away their guns and sing kumbaya? I'm so sick of everything in this country being oversimplified to red and yellow. Primary colors for primary thinking.
Right. The rationale? We are not likely to win this and we didn't get what we wanted with the Minnis and Loretta thing, so let's try to further destabilize the country and see how that works out.
Unregulated daycare and preschool facilities is a major problem in New Providence and the authorities are not doing nearly enough about it. As it always happens, someone has to die before people pay attention to what they all already know exists.
Right. And if you know the imbeciles driving this, you would know that nothing about the nation's well being is driving anything they are seeking to do.
The Opposition already assented to this report and now they are challenging their own assent. No matter the outcome, I cannot wait until the election is held. I only wish that afterward, we would never have to see any of these clowns currently in Parliament again. But that of course and sadly, is not a reality.
> official Opposition Leader Loretta Butler-Turner yesterday suggested that the government’s newly tabled Interception of Communications Bill, 2017 could be used by the Progressive Liberal Party led government to give it an advantage during this election season, as she rejected the timing of the legislation.
Of course all an MP would care about is himself or herself first and foremost. The nation? Whatever. She and all the other Opposition MPs had this Bill in their possession since last week and none of them said a word. The only people last week I saw bring it to the public's attention was a blogger and then the Tribune's story thereafter. You can tell Butler-Turner has not even read the Bill though she had it before the public saw it or even knew anything about it. But such has been the case with our non-existent Opposition for the last five years.
