In classic FNM fashion, the people he is bribing to stick with him are fighting tooth and nail - not to win an election or give the voters what they would prefer - but to keep their person in at the expense of everything else. FNMs love being in opposition. They fight hardest to remain in the losing seat, even when they are in government. They know the voters do not want Minnis but they do not care. They would rather lose it all.

> If the sitting FNM MPs have lost confidence in Minnis' quality of leadership .......... then Minnis should do the honourable thing and resign

Exactly, but third world politicians or politicians otherwise captivated by the love of power generally refuse to the death to recognize that this is what any real leader of integrity ought to do in a democracy.

The time and the place for such statements in a political party are in its meeting of its Central Council. He spoke exactly where he was supposed to speak. Perhaps you should learn how parties work before calling someone an a$$ for doing exactly what is supposed to be done therein.

Truth!

Actually, this is the second $20 million allocation made in two consecutive budgets for the exact same program, only the program never happened for the first allocation, so where did that $20 million go? I did not expect these FNMs to ask that question up front of course, since that would require actually going into the budget and studying it prior to making a public statement.

Chinese is not a race.

And neither is Haitian, but that didn't stop Mitchell from using and abusing Haitians as immigration pawns and springboards to try to prop himself up as a would-be choice for Prime Minister. White is a race. A race Mitchell seems to detest.

These subhumans sicken me.

> Hubert Minnis said on Steve McKinney show yesterday that the reason why he has so many "political haters" is that he is a change agent who is determined to get rid of corruption in The Bahamas

Will that be after he is done with all the deals he currently makes with Shane & Brave?

> “In that respect it’s unfair what the government has done. They’re pushing the ‘yes’ vote to the detriment of public education and a deepening of democracy.”

Same thing the FNM did in 2002. When will change ever happen I wonder.

> What we have now the minister can decide whether you are the father, that’s wrong.

His point about the Status of Children Amendment Bill is valid.

This headline is incorrect. VAT has not been removed from baby clothes and food. These reporters sit in Parliament, have the Budget in front of them and still come back to their newsrooms and file incorrect copy.

In other words "we have an agreement to think about the possibility of agreeing that at some point there needs to be an agreement, if we agree to agree on doing so."

Next.
