The other side with Minnis who never ever understands anything pertaining to Statute or the Constitution, is it is obvious that the Commission would encounter challenges if people are not registering to vote. It seems Minnis does not understand what the Constitutional mandate of the Commission is.
> real estate agent Reneika Knowles in Killarney and Senator Cheryl Bazard in the newly added constituency of St Cecilia.
There is no Constituency of St. Cecilia yet. That can only be named after the Boundaries Commission Report is approved. At present, that Constituency does not legally exist. But in The Bahamas, what does it matter right?
> Opposition members also expressed some concern, and the question goes to whether constitutionally the prime minister should make a decision with the voter registration being as low as it is
Who was the idiot who raised this question? There is no Constitutional requirement of how many citizens ought to be registered before an election is called. And if that person understood the concept of simple majority in a democratic system they would realize how ignorant that question was.
You sound foolish. But people with political blinders on usually do. Can you comprehend? For my part, I told Economist that what he is asking for is not something Minnis would be in a position to do. If you could comprehend, you wouldn't see that as whining.
As an aside, how does posting glowing lies about a politician's non-performance "help" that politician or his party? Is a politician akin to God that he or she is not to be criticized, whether constructively or otherwise? So if one man is doing a bad job, no one should comment on it unless they wish to take a place they cannot take, which is the place he has grafted for himself? That mindset is part of our problem; to see what is wrong, but lie and say everything is fine. Or worse, to refuse to see what is wrong because of what you think is in it for you, or because you have been conditioned to do so.
> They have not given it so tell us what you think it should say and explain to us why, why we should be following your line of thinking.
He is not analyzing population numbers and shifts per constituency nationwide to provide such ideas intelligently. He would not be showing leadership by trying to make such suggestions outside of this critical information, he would be showing himself to be stupid. Yes, he does this stunningly well already but there is no need to ask for encores.
Is murder the only crime on the books? When politicians speak of crime, they try to make it appear as if the only lawbreakers in this country are the street criminals. Against that backdrop, Miller should be the last to castigate anyone about crime.
How is this only now being discussed when this has been happening on that island for years now under the current administration? Is there nothing in this country that truly matters until weeks before someone needs someone's vote?

No politician can Constitutionally fire any Public Officer. Public Officers are terminated from within the Service by the Service, not by politicians.
