I am happy that the DPM has decided to publicize this issue. Our two service providers have not advanced beyond the mere appearance of competition. They pay lip-service to any cutting edge technology and have not lived up to their goals. I’m not sure what the right approach is, however we must do are best to find out and fix it. Otherwise we’re doomed to remain “developing”, like some organism UNable to advance beyond its infancy.
This humanitarian situation is indicative as to why we need to finally address our immigration policy, especially regarding “birth right citizenship’. We have certainly benefited from immigration and if we want to continue to reap those benefits then we should craft sensible and pragmatic policies.
Instead we continue to dodge the problems and they fester “since the 70’s” as one commenter opined.
Mrs. Clinton once opined “abortion should be safe, legal and rare…”. I can think of no other statement on the matter that so succinctly addresses this controversy.
Abortions have been freely available in the Bahamas for decades.
The “Church” should ‘sit small’ or pay taxes.
Politicians should grow ‘a spine’ or cajones, whichever allows them to do the right thing without fear or favor.
This cheeky “editorial” is a bit disappointing coming from the likes of the esteem Tribune. Mr. Mitchell is not a candidate. Mr. Gibson would like to be.
While it is often said “the Bahamian electorate has a short memory” I’d be tempted to infer that anyone not aware of the wannabe candidate’s troubles as a CM must suffer from significant Alzheimer’s?! Not sure why anyone in WE/Bim would want him given that history, but ‘to each his own’?
Mr. Mitchell is said to “know where all the bones are buried” and I suspect we should trust him on this one, given his desire to preserve some semblance of decency in Bahamian foreign relations and ultimately our shared History…
