The 2022 census estimated a population size of 398 thousand... lets say 400. The African Congress rep says Rastafarians represent 15% of the population, that would be 60,000 people. I dont get around as much as I used to, I suppose there could be 60,000 Rastafarians in country. Im betting there's bad data all around. More words based on bad data. I understand Roots may be on TV again (words) People with platforms should stop giving false hope and blowing dog whistles as distractions from reality. A statement has already been released that the King isnt apologizing and he's not acknowledging anything. Someone said "*well what he coming for then*"... well the reason he was always coming, "*to visit*"
According to the article, the young boy was jaywalking. A particularly dangerous common practice in the country. Drivers believe they are "helping" and being "kind", when they "assist" the practice, especially when a child is involved. But if you stop suddenly at an unusual spot, where there is no pedestrian crossing, and no clear sign of the reason youve stopped, with drivers behind you unable to see that person in front of your car (or even the car you are allowing to cross a dual lane thoroughfare to the opposite side of the road). The driver was fully in her right to switch to the adjacent lane, which was clear, to continue her journey. You, the person encouraging the pedestrian to commit the dangerous maneouvre, more than anyone else have endangered the person you believe you are "helping".
The lady is correct, she should not be harassed for driving according to the rules of the road.
"*If you do your investigative reporting and understand what's happening around the world, you'll see that The Bahamas is not unique in what is happening with power delivery.*"
This is actually correct. If you compare the Bahamas to other countries around the world with ruling parties with increasing wealth, an increasing wralth gap, crumbling infrastructure and govts failing to act for decades... we are not unique.
Thats what I was thinking. We've come along way when its an extraordinary sight for a police officer to assist with traffic gone wrong. But given that we are "here", (sincerely) great job doing the right thing.
This is not about "*paying the mortgage*". This is about Airbnb induced rental inflation of 100 to 500+ dollar per night rates for sub par properties **despite mortgages entered into pre COVID**
As to *sorry we need another term to do what we promised*... "as per usual"
"*established that there is liability of the Grand Bahama Port Authority to reimburse the government of The Bahamas and the taxpayers of The Bahamas for administrative expenses incurred in Freeport by the government. It ruled that that liability absolutely exists*"
**Wasnt this already estsblished? and the actual dispute was not whether fees should be paid but rather how did the govt arrive at 300million??**
