> Just as in Las Vegas, what happens in the Bahamas Cabinet stays there.

This is a stupid statement. Cabinet deliberations and conclusions are Constitutionally secret. Matters not which Party is in power. Governments in The Bahamas tell you what they want you to know, and no more.

You are so ignorant it ought to be illegal and in many countries, probably is.

This matter is simply one of a moronic person in charge. Public Service policy is that people who present themselves to public offices for services ought to be attired a certain way. Public Officers can deny service to members of the public based on this longstanding and outdated policy. Hall, being the cretin he is, decided to apply that to women coming to the office to get registered. It is simply his foolish mis-application of the policy in this regard, since no policy or law for that matter, is above the Constitution. That is the salient issue here that got lost behind politicians trying to score brownie points. It seems Collie is trying to suggest that the women being turned away are FNM supporters, because let's face it; he wouldn't care if they are PLP supporters. And if Collie really thought that, then how come the FNM needed to wait for a Tribune story to raise the alarm about what they suspect might be happening to voters the PLP might want to suppress? If the FNM were on the ground with and for the Bahamian people, they would know about such a thing long before it ever made it to a newspaper, mainstream or otherwise. The foolishness on all fronts in this country is beyond nauseating.

This matter has been beaten to death in press releases. Now, why won't the FNM address the issue of why it is that the majority of eligible Bahamian voters are not registering to vote? It is not because Hall is a moron which successive Prime Ministers have long since been aware of. It is because Bahamians, while wanting the PLP gone, have no confidence in the alternatives. But the FNM is content, as is its way, to live in denial and blame the sun, moon and stars for their own gross failings as an Opposition party. The FNM itself has failed to take a productive, active role in getting people registered, yet want to seize on this story because they think it will score them brownie points.

Note to the FNM; any sensible women out there can see what the FNM's behavior has been toward women in their own party since 2012. The FNM thinks women will be enamored by their feigned indignation about this matter, thinking women will believe the FNM is more for them than the PLP. Any right-thinking Bahamian woman should be able to see that notwithstanding the FNM's past accomplishments for women, the FNM of today cares as much about Bahamian women as the PLP does.

right

This is BS

The man was sick when he was nominated and Minnis and the Party knew it

yes

> Mrs Wallace posited that diversity and inclusion did not have to come at the cost of dismissing marginalised communities, and that such an exchange for political expediency was rooted in self-interest and poor judgment.

Absolutely correct

I am convinced that the Magna Carta for The Bahamas is competitive ignorance.
