Not front page news for me. He is a relic of the past who should retire on his immense wealth. He has changed his mind about not supporting a party run by Minnis, to saying he would only run if he was made Deputy Leader, now this. To quote Big Bad Brad, a flip-flopper.
Amnesty tries to put pressure on the Government to effect more liberal treatment of the LBGTI community. The fact of the matter is that the government campaigned long and hard to have the constitutional referendum passed, but the citizens of the country voted it down. This means, in regards to Amnesty's assertions, that the people of the Bahamas, not the Government, are opposed to liberalization of these rights.
I guess someone must have paid Smith's fine for him. According to our swift justice guidelines, he would otherwise be in jail, not fighting for a PLP nomination. HA HA.
Hatter, you may wish to consider the possibility that she lives in that area. In any event, she is a child; an innocent bystander, and I pray that she will recover from her injuries.
Tal, the "Red Movement" as you called them, have demanded these details in the House, and received a reply from the PM that "he was not at liberty to disclose particulars of the sale". We only recently found out that Fook will not take ownership of the Hotel until ALL repairs are completed. So if they can't get the details from the PM, and Fook is not the owner as yet, what the fook else are the FNM supposed to do?
Well maybe now that the Government's "Ace in the Hole" investor is complaining about the crime and city dump, something will be done. Just fixing the dump would be a major achievement. Fixing crime, on the other hand, a miracle. The system need to be gutted from the politicians on down through the judiciary. When the police arrest a suspect, the whole carnival of lawyers, rights, bail, and b/s,puts them back on the street. How frustrating must it be for them. Then the morality of the people, who believe that they can commit crimes and get away with them (which they do),needs to be addressed. Anyway lets see if the big time investors words have any effect.
I too, think this is a great move, although a bit hypocritical as the Polymers factory in Freeport produces a large percentage of the beads used in the manufacturing of foam products worldwide. Is the solution to shut them down? Maybe we can look at recycling these items,, reducing the need to manufacture new product, as well as providing a source of revenue and employment that is untapped in our country. Then we will have to figure out a way to stop our citizens from littering with these, and all other types of hazardous waste matter. Big Job.
