The FNM has become a monumental disgrace. This ought not even be up for discussion. If it were a PLP, they would have quickly called for his resignation because that is what is supposed to happen in instances like this.

Minimum wage is $7,800 per year or $150 per week. Is your educated calculator broken? $28,000 per year is about $540 per week. Do you know how many Bahamians would kill for that salary, including thousands of public officers who have been the service with a degree for 20 years and not even making $30,000. Plus, Members of Parliament have other jobs. It is no small wonder that the only people who do not see the problem with the timing of asking for these increases, are the MPs themselves. And you said raise it to 75K? Find me a workplace in this country where you get your salary increased by over $40,000 to do the exact same job prior to the raise. I'll wait. They all know what their salaries will be when they run for office. If they truly do not want to deal with that salary then they ought not run, perhaps?

I guess the Tribune is going to lock down this thread soon too? Until then, I had another thought; perhaps the girlfriend is in fear of her life and that of their children and she doesn't want to talk, at least not publicly or with the knowledge of the public? We may never know.

That part of the story has me puzzled as well. How can you possibly not hear 12 gunshots into the body of the person you were walking just ahead of? No matter what kind of headphones those were, I cannot see how that could be possible, especially with the children there which I assume would have made her generally attentive while on their walk? And how far ahead of him could they have possibly been for her not to have seen anything either?

Halkitis clearly believes that everyone is as doltish as he is

They are not amateurs. They are thieves.

The government has absolutely no legal authority to do what Nottage has announced!!! Bahamas what is happening to us? Is anyone paying real attention anymore to what this government is doing to Bahamian citizens?

Indeed

Here is what is so sublime and obvious about this. If BOB supposedly feels Mr. Cash divulged private client information to the public and they hence supposedly made a criminal complaint, but some people want to say his wife gave him the information, then why is she still employed there? If her employers believed she broke the law by leaking private information to anyone, spouse or otherwise, they would have already fired her months ago, and also made a criminal complaint to law enforcement about such activity. Clearly her employers don't believe she has done anything illegal else they would have dealt with her, but yet her employers supposedly made a criminal complaint about her spouse instead? The government takes us all for ignoramuses. What's more, the FNM hasn't even been the ones telling us jack sprat about BOB anyway. They are never on the ball with exposing these kinds of things even though they should be. Were it not for the Punch, we would never have found out what's happening since the rest of these other "real newspapers" dont reveal much of consequence to the public either. Seems all the other news departments pretended they didnt see everything the Punch exposed about BOB because they certainly have not been reporting the details to us. They all deride the Punch as being a "rag". Well atleast this time it appears the "rag" has done us some good.

I voted F. And since we cannot use profanity in this forum, I am unable to say what that F stands for as far as I am concerned.
