"*he is running a business and not obligated to wait on late clients.*"

This must be the dumbest business owner ever. He's supposed to come back for 18 people at a given time and he didnt think to get a contact for at least one of them or to give them his contact? He made almost 600 dollars in a few hours and he abandoned 18 people? well he can bet thats the last time the cruise port allows him to pick up anybody *run the business* somewhere else. 30 dollars per person requires a tour operator who stays with the group. highway robbery

Repost regarding the collapsed structure at RMBailey. You csnt make this up.

"*A portion of the roof that was under construction collapsed,“ Mr Smith said. “But the roof did not collapse because you don’t have a roof until it’s completed, so that portion collapsed."*

***Is Mr Smith serious? The gold standard of construction is "if the building falls down but it's not yet complete that doesnt mean anything"**? This should never happen, not only is it a loss of thousands in materials, labour and time (please tell us how much for all 3) , it is a clear and present danger to workers both construction and otherwise. **This also calls into question every piece of work the "contractor" completed anywhere**. The files should be pulled and a qualified inspector independent of MOW should immediately review all of his work. If less than this is done, the minister should be held personally liable should any part of a completed structure anywhere collapse and injure someone.*

*What were the inspection points on this work? Please ask a contractor about this* And who was the Inspector who passed the work?

This is a bad comedy. **Cabinet knew about this spill for more than a year?? Again?? This needs to be an offence witu with legal and financial ramifications for any cabinet Minister to withhold any information potentially impacting public health** Nobody in cabinet could believably say there was a notice floating around about an oil spill possibly affecting the water table in andros, andros, what was the fresh water source for Nasaau and "*I didnt know*". They can play word games with "*well, no complaint was filed*", but thats it.

"*Hubert Ingraham discontinued barging of water from Andros correct? That aside will BPL cover the cost of lab work for persons in the affected area? I didnt see any indication of the time between when the spill happened and BPL said nothing and the time it was discovered on private land (weird Fitzgerald is a senior advisor to the PM when the administration hides another instance of people unknowingly bathing in and drinking fuel). Where is the Minister of Health?*"

We "*must be da conch*" would be a better description

"*it may be as simple as that.*:

I bet its not. If it were simple, Davis would have had his press conference yesterday. The fact that he's said nothing, and the immaculate press secretary and AG both rolled out of bed for a press conference means even Davis and his advisors are trying to figure this out.

"*some without the awareness that now a court case is actually taking place, the best thing they can do – **the thing they should do – is just shut up and let justice take its course...***"

**We must be the dumbest people in the world. I've never heard of a case in the US being impacted because the public is "speculating". The judge instructs the jury not to read articles or listen to or discuss the case**. The onus isnt on the public, the onus is on the jury to separate themselves. When the report against Kirk Cornish was filed with the police, the media wouldnt even call his name! They wouldnt even say what the charge was. It was just some mystery. **The best thing the Davis administration could have done was send him on leave, but instead they pretended, like the media, as if nothing had happened.** When something happens, people talk, it will be that way 1000 years from now, **wise people get ahead of a damaging story.**

We need to stop excusing bad behave because its someone with a senior position in the country or someone who's name we recognize. Men need to control themselves.

His penalty is harsh because what he did was beyond irresponsible, to the extreme. When managers get thrown out of a game in major league baseball they disappear. This guy refused to, instead he threatened the life of the umpire, loudly, he then barged into the umpires locker room, an area he had NO authority to be in with the express purpose of attacking the umpire, he then physically attacked the umpire and had to be forcefully removed by other officials. Refusing the leave the play area was sufficient for multiple games suspension. Threatening a visiting umpires life and attacking him? To cap it all off his report of what transpired was he just "*threw some water*"... dishonesty. The 15 years is essentially a lifetime ban and quite appropriate. "*Attacking an umpire*" is sacrilege in sports

I did not see news footage but I'm hearing the reports of how the press secretary and AG were frumpily dressed. Odd. On Sunday after 8PM I came to the tribune.com expecting to find a statement from the PM on what this all meant, he typically gives press statements on Sunday evenings. No explanation. At this point I'm beginning to believe PM Davis does not even know what's happening. The announcement was odd. The fact that nobody knows why is the *oddest*

No. They should collect their salary and be sent on leave. They should have no authority to carry out any function of their office until they have been found not guilty, if guilty someone else gets to carry out the mandate. We need to stop this nonsense that someone charged with murder can sit in Parliament like nothing happen until a court finds them guilty 5 years later. This system is used for every other senior office across govt.
