We should all know by now that for some things cabinet is be just as shocked as the rest of us

"*Yesterday Mr Albert reacted to the mixed messaging from government officials.“**I guess he’s confused**, but he had to give approval too*"

**automatic rejection**. *I guess he's confused*??? The carnival guy speaking about the one of the most senior officials of a nation he asked permission to enter and operate in??? But, we like it when they call us dumb he'll probably get approval for an extended stay

"*namely whether long-furloughed workers who have now been made redundant can claim full unemployment benefits from the social security scheme given that their contributions are not up-to-date.*"

Given that the govt enacted the laws to allow their employers to hold them in that state so long, the answer seems obvious

Well they just told you

Truth.and why we dont grow. Everyone acts as if its a mystery.... how can we if our "strategy mechanism" is manned by the garbage man? He does an excellent job keeping the place clean, but...

University of the Bahamas, Sir Sidney Bridge, Department of Correctional Services. Ministry of Disaster Management... some name changes have very little meaning. The moniker "Republic" will also mean nothing without a very clear plan on what we hope to change. We talk about our abhorrence for "*swearing to the Queen her heirs and successors*, but its just a bunch of words. **I have yet to see any representative of the Queen show up and demand we hand over her land. Its us thats the problem. Fix us.**

This is bad if anyone can import anything without getting all the required permits to operate before entry. It just makes no sense. Sometimes we have to admit mistakes were made.

"*NG Island MP Adrian Gibson has hit back at recent remarks made by Sylvanus Petty, the newly appointed chairman of the Water and Sewerage Corporation, claiming that his successor’s “new role is above his aptitude”*

Gibson was unqualified for his role. bec, btc urca Aliv and WSC are unlike other agencies. They are highly technical and specialized fields. Boards make strategic decisions for those agencies. If you don't have decades leading multimillion dollar corporations or highly technical knowledge in the field of operation, the only thing you could do is sit quietly and collect a paycheque or do the opposite and cause confusion. "Youth" is NOT a criteria for a board appointment and more often than not, intuitively, an anti-criteria. A Board appointment like the Senate is no place to send someone to "learn" or to put someone just to collect a salary

Our board appointments are no game. **Growth requires strategy. If you're trying to figure out why we're not growing take a look at the tinkerers we're appointing to boards to make strategic decisions**

"*If you remember the whole discussion about Delta, we kind of had our head buried in the sand for weeks saying that we haven’t proven it to be here,” Dr Sands said.*"

You may have had your head buried in the sand. By April I was saying *something different is happening. This could be a variant*. Renward Wells proudly proclaimed in May was it(?) that 4 samples theyd sent off from January or so returned and *there was no, I say no evidence of COVID variants in the Bahamas*. I remember quite clearly one talking show host and sidekick laughing and saying ~"*you hear that all you conspiracy theorists? No evidence of variants!*"

What I say now is Omicron appears to be hyped. But Dr Chetty did describe a phenomenon of an early mild response seen in young people only to be followed by a more severe reaction in the 2nd wave. He explained as I believe the body now recognizing the virus and launching a more aggresive attack. So who knows. Id say this one is a dud so far, but keep close eyes on the data... Eorrisome that we still have counts of 10 people dying in a week... and some are fairly young

we do seem to get scammed alot. I dont think were that dumb though. Lots of million dollar homes popping up in Nassau
