hackers may have accessed the data but it became news when ICIJ posted it so i agree with Pinder, even if a long shot. we need to stop taking everything lying down.. Go Trump!
interesting how the same names, like Minister Gray, although the AG could be included too, keep coming up every time there is some controversy... wonder why?
this idea is BS. you can't get tourists in Freeport and now you want to approve another port? how many f -ing ports do we need in this country anyway? everytime they approve these types of projects it sounds like the second coming, then most do nothing to improve people's lives...
yes, this will lead to a scarified landscape devoid of beauty in a country struggling with tourism. bear in mind that our gov't does not plant/replace trees. look at West Bay street. decades ago they cut down the casurinas due disease. nothing planted in their place and worst of all, left the dead stumps like some kind of memorial. WTF? The beauty of that drive destroyed til Sarkis came then they thanked him by stabbing him in the back when the chance arose.
Key is a PLP just like most of the FNM. so there is no difference, you have declared PLPs and disgruntled PLPs a.k.a FNMs...
the auditor general may as well stop auditing because his reports are getting no response. .. another example of the useless 3rd world style governments we have had for decades.. good on spending a.k.a wasting money but useless at collecting..
This is one of, but not the only reason for VAT and other inevitable taxes yet to come. The f..king gov't fails to collect for some bizarre reason. It Carnival owed Port of Miami such sums, I'm pretty sure one or more of those big boats would have been held hostage until the bill was paid or the boat sold. What a useless bunch of slackers.. wonder who owns the lady Rosalind fleet and how does a Mosko get away owing over 100 grand?
This BS about minority Report has to stop. The committee consists of 5 members. If 3 say XYZ is the findings of the committee, then that should be the end of it. Not to suggest that members of the committee who have a conflicting point of view should not be able to air it, but not as a separate Report. Have a news conference or use any if the other techniques they use when convenient to leak something. It's just utter BS to have two Reports all the time; one from government members that will always praise government, and one from opposition side of course criticizing, Any wonder then that the debt is $7.0bn and rising if this is how we investigate use of taxpayer money to learn from and avoid wastage and abuse in future?
with this rabble and the PLP deadwood asking for another 5, seems to me the continuation of self-drive, intellectually bankrupt government is assured no matter who wins..
