Useless. They need to locate the "*high ranking politician*", try him for treason and unravel his network of corruption
Exactly what has changed with a female commissioner? It baffles me when various proposals or appointments are made, nobody wants to ask the hard questions. The pattern is always the same, the Lucayan Sale Rally, the commissioner appointment the new biometric voting cards, the electronic voting system, Starlink and SpaceX, the Cruise Porte, RCi PI, homeporting, and on and on, the media response is always the same, *this is a great opportunity*, some even push for freebies and access for themselves, you can forget objectivity after that, bought and paid for, until of course after the debacle when everyone tries to disassociate themselves.

"*One of the most controversial decisions was the appointment of his advisor, Xaviera Jessurun, as Chief of Staff. Jessurun has no prior diplomatic experience and had only worked as an assistant at Suriname’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Nevertheless, Ramdin allegedly demanded her salary be increased well beyond the authorized scale. According to internal sources, Jessurun is now paid more than the U.S. Secretary of State, whose annual salary is $250,600.*"
That's odd. We all recall a Bahsmian diplomat spending 17,000 on a mirror while posted in London. Was that act illegal? No but it raises serious questions of judgement.. and more

I echo your sentiments. I'm often shocked by what isnt known, isnt researched and isnt asked. And it seems with expansion of media and access to cellphones more persons lacking innate curiosity are stepping up for social media "puffy", "influencer" journalistic titles. The departure of the likes of Ace Newbold, Carlton Smith and Juan McCartney.. most cannot see what is happening... intelligence is departing and being rwplaced by persons who can barely read...it does not bode well for us
You mean what happen to Howard Grant at ZNS when according to him he was likewise corralled from conversations and interviews that didnt make the govt look lily white? It dont matter what colour shirt massa have on, the pain of the whip on your back feel the same. That's the point.
I look around and see some troubling signs, the same people castigating govt for FOIA and free speech are the same people showing signs that they will utilize free speech muzzles for no other reason than because I can, you oppose me or I is me and you is you. We are in trouble. The illqualified oppressed cant wait to gain the seat of the oppressor
If you can handle the microscope lens, I suppose it could be, it can bring fame and fortune if you have the qualifications, super beauty, super body, confidence. Just like the NBA, few make it and theres an ugly side with the industry vultures, uber rich predators and drug addiction vulture.
The PLP are sending alot of signals like they're afraid of the opposition, its strange.
**The law does not say a station cant have a political discussion, theres no such thing**. The law restricts the national broadcaster and only the national broadcaster, ZNS, from disadvantaging any party in terms of air time.
So If one party gets two hours free air time, all parties should be afforded two hours free air time. One party should not be allowed to purchase all airtime if another party has funds and is requesting paid spots. But nothing prevents any party from buying more time than another party **if** there is no competition to purchase that time
"*class to teach models how to spot red flags, set boundaries, and handle uncomfortable situations.*"
This goes for men and women, so mothers watch your sons too, especially when you send them outside the Bahamasfor what is supposed to be a "big break". From the court accounts, many many children were lured into a soiders web at Nygard Cay, excited for an opportunity to benefit from an interaction with a very wealthy man..
He is correct though. A charge and conviction for removing client money held in trust??? That should be grounds for elimination from political office forever.
