Exactly which part of **get flippin lost** is Hubert having challenges comprehending?
Hubert Ingrahm and his "school of thought" was soundly rejected in 2012! He is back to his "one man band" stupidity.
His statements only confirm he still considers Bahamians as total fools, and he has learned nothing about the electorate from his 2012 defeat and the PLP massive landslide loss at the polls.
Hubert is obviously either setting the stage for himself to have a *soft landing* when his own misfeasance is uncovered, (and there is pleanty) or once again showing Bahamians that he still considers us as absolute, total fools!
Why the hell would Bahamians settle for politicians simply being named and shamed for stealing untold millions or misfeasance when the electorate receives harsh, lengthy prison sentences for minor offenses? What Bahamian is stupid enough to accept this nonsense and where did the "six months in jail" conclusion come from?
Politicians and their supporting cast of corrupt civil servants, lawyers, and accountants must ALL be held accountable and punished to the fullest extent of the law same as ANY other citizen! **The electorate demands justice NOT favor.** The days of "do not go to jail" are over.
This is the only country in the world where politicians like Hubert Ingraham feels comfortable standing on a podium lobbying to protect politically connected criminals from the law! These pirates destroyed our country, decimated our people and robbed us blind for 4 decades and this idiot of a dinosaur wants the people to just shake their hands and move on?
**no thanks** Hubert Ingraham.
We weren't interested in your stupidity in 2012 and certainly are not the least bit interested in your cunning opinions now!
As with most people, Branville McCartney is his own worst enemy. Had he had the common sense and humility to work with Dr. Minnis after many Months of negotiating before the election, Branville and several of his DNA members would be sitting in Parliament today making valuable contributions to turning the country around.
His demands were totally unreasonable and unfounded. Especially given the fact he had no seats to start with and regardless of the DNA being well funded, how and why would he think he could demand a 19 seat deal with the FNM?
As a former DNA supporter in 2012 elections, it seemed evident in 2017 that Branville was another democratic dictator in the making that also thought too much of himself. This observation combined with what most thinking people considered a very poor judgment call in collaborating with Loretta Butler was more than enough reason to steer clear of the DNA in 2017!
Usually, under Westminster system of governance, a leader that leads to defeat resigns and allow others the opportunity to lead.
Had the PLP and FNM followed the system, they would have shed Perry Christie and Hubert Ingraham decades ago and our country would have been in a much better position today.
However, as familiarity breeds contempt, it also bred collusion, and massive corruption, which not only stifiled the countries growth but threw us back 25 years!
The DNA should indeed persist relentlously in seeking the leadership of the country as the PLP is dead in the water with no hope of capturing the electorates trust. Undoubtably, Branville has much to offer the country, but he is not what we need at this juncture.
The Bahamas is no unwitting victim in this nonsense! somebody got paid very well to shuffle and block government red tape that would have prevented this from ever happening.
I certainly cannot imagine a **bahamian** even wanting a hot dog vending stand getting away without jumping through 1000 hoops. These people concocted a major event without ANY of the necessary documents and government approvals? How in GODS name was a totally unknown entity able to do so??
The part about "the organizers keeping ministry officials away from the event site" - "The organizers of the festival, according to our people, were very reluctant to give them access to the site" is especially egregious!
Can anyone even begin to imagine a Bahamian organizer having such clout to deny government officials access to anything???
Absolutely mind boggling what transpired under the PLP!
Mr. Ingraham, to set the record straight, the fact that you are accepted by the society a lot has absolutely nothing to do with people having remorse for firing you.
We fired you because of your gross stupidity, proven ineptitude as with BTC and obvious lack of concern of Bahamians in favor of foreign nationals!
Bahamians are simply a very forgiving and peaceful people that would rather pick up the pieces and carry on enjoying life as best they can instead of returning evil for evil.
This easy going spirit was always interpreted by politicians as Bahamians being a stupid, short-sighted, forgetful people which caused leaders to think they could get away with any number of egregious acts brought upon the people and country even though the electorate proved otherwise over several election cycles by consistently voting them out.
Only now after the largest landslide election defeat in recent memory have politicians been forced to realize that Bahamians are no fools and not to be taken lightly!
PM Dr. Minnis is on the absolute correct track to date by firstly **"cleaning house before building, painting, furnishing, and landscaping"**
His stated no-nonsense approach to zero tolerance with corruption is undeniably essential if we are to reposition the Bahamas as a safe jurisdiction for FDI. Nothing less will suffice in correcting global perception that the Bahamas is a politically pirate infested, inhospitable country, and what happened to Sarkis was a glowing example to the world of what happens to anybody foolish enough to trust former administrations!
The main point everyone keeps missing regarding FDI is unlimited potential investors are already here! Sarkis is but a single individual of many residing in our country with the financial clout to make similar major investments. We must convince these people **by our actions** that the Bahamas is now a safe investment jurisdiction.
So Mr. Izmirlian is supposed to simply walk away from his investment because it just happens to be of integral economic importance to the Bahamas, although Hubert agrees that his bankruptcy actions were indeed proper as deemed by the U.S. bankruptcy judge and Perry Christie and the Chinese obviously colluded in shanghaiing him?
Why should it now be Izmirlians’ responsibility to take the fall and suffer loss because of decades of mismanagement, political stupidity, and corruption, which led the country to where we now find ourselves caused by Hubert Ingraham and Perry Christie?
**hell no sarkis!** Take your fight before the Privy Council for resolution and sue the lot of them!
Message to tourist: If you want a fun filled sun vacation destination that allows the use of cannabis, please just go to Jamaica.
The Bahamas is beyond backward in this regard and will continue losing market share because they think pretend to have the highest moral character on the planet and hell bent on remaining in the dark ages.
How much marijuana could this poor guy have had in his pocket that warrants him being arrested and charged?
Meanwhile the emptiest barrel of them all, MP Picewell Forbes was on Hard Copy yesterday praising the PLP and Hakitas for their "stellar" services in managing the countries economy..Lol!
This dumb idiot we all know never had an independent thought since setting foot in the HOA was obviously well prepped by Brave and Fred to parrot certain responses made a damn fool of himself trying to convince the electorate that Pillage Loot Plunder is a powerhouse, ready and able to regain power and "work on behalf of the Bahamian people".....Lol....Lol....Lol.
Hey Forbes, please explain to us how you guys gonna regain power from jail cells, cause that's more than likely where the majority of you will end up!
**holy crap!** These guys make piracy look like child's play!
While gross misfeasance is uncovered all over the place almost on daily bases, Perry Christie claims he did the right thing and continues sticking to his story.
Now we know why Philip Davis and Gargoyle Roberts are so adamant about their calls for and an end to the so-called "witch hunt". They know exactly what they did in fleecing the country and definitely doesn't want the electorate to learn just how corrupt they are!
There is no way back for the PLP brand. The electorate at large will never trust "PLP" ever again.
The Bahamas must adopt a zero tolerance to illegal migration. These people take us for jokes and fools. They all have contacts here and should be interrogated to determine who these contacts are.
Anyone found facilitating or aiding illegal migrants should themselves be deported if of foreign nationality regardless of status in our country or jailed if they are Bahamians, as enemies of the state.
Illegal Haitians due to their large numbers particularly are a huge burden on our country and a serious threat to national security.
Now that the PLP stupidity is out of the way, we need to seriously strengthen and enforce laws dealing with illegals, putting major impediments in place because these people obviously have absolutely no fear of repeatedly coming here illegally, and those assisting them likewise do so with impunity. Why would they stop??
Enough pussyfooting around with this issue. Heavily fine and jail anyone caught employing illegals, strip belongers, work permit holders, nationalized individuals etc' of status and deport those facilitating this activity, consistently raid and roundup **(yes, round up!)** illegals and return them by ship, which is the most economical and convenient method we can afford.
They are negatively impacting our country and people more than any other single cause, as we sit back "talking" about being humain, being our brothers keepers and using politically correct language, while these people coulldn't care less about wheather Bahmians lived or died or the Bahamas succeded or failed!!
