It is sometimes easy to spot the people who did not go through the 185mph winds of Dorian in Abaco, probably by the way they try to demean others who do not agree with the right wing propaganda that they believe after listening to too much far right media.
It was never considered at the time but perhaps the most compelling reason for The Bahamas to have remained under British rule is that our 400,000 Bahamians would have had somewhere to relocate to when the country, as seems inevitable, ceases to exist. A USA ruled by Elon and Donald is surely not going to welcome us as immigrants.
How wonderful it is that the very expensive, to the Bahamian taxpayers, Office of the Spouse has actually managed to do something, even if it is only a press release. Someone must have actually shown up at the office to do this. Unless they just paid a non-government Publicity Agency to do the PR for them......Sigh.
The first point that comes to mind is that we have had for many years, had a crime stoppers anonymous tip line. This is run from the USA so that their can be no Bahamian leakage of information; how does Clayton not know about this?
Poleete partnerships may be in peril, . Cos of constabulary actions most certainly feral. . Greed and corruption rampant in the ranks, . Senior officers getting rich, … . very pleasing to the banks. . And politicians always able to seem to get their cut. . With no fear or favor, they never get rebut….. Turks and Caicos bank accounts swelling with this loot, . The question of corruption is surely only moot?
Ms Phillips asks; "What’s not to love?" The answer to this question is in the accompanying text; "as being funded by the gaming houses." Gambling is a horrible crippling addiction that destroys lives and families just as drug addiction can also do. This seems an attempt by the gambling bosses to whitewash their predatory business model. It also may not be a coincidence that there is again talk of establishing a National Lottery. Are the gambling lords seeking to curry favour with the government and the electorate to gain control of and reap the profits of such a lottery. Ms. Phillips has spent many years in the field of Public Relations where people are paid to advance a particular agenda or rehabilitate a reputation while making it seem as if there is no overt advertising being used. I cannot help but wonder if money has changed hands to the benefit of a Public Relations professional. Not, I should add, Ms. Phillips in this case as that would be an obvious conflict of interest and against accepted joutnalistic standards.
So W&S Corporation will continue to be prevented from charging their customers enough to pay for the reverse osmosis water that they buy from Consolidated Water, so that debt will increase. The Corporation will also not be able to upgrade infrastructure or adequately maintain it. The results of this will start showing up in a few years time with more burst leaking pipes and cuts in supply. Sigh. Well at least no defense force officers or senior police people have been arrested in the US this week. Sigh.
