The PLP Election machine swings into action, as it has for every election, stirring up the racial differences in our country to try and garrner votes. SIGH...
It would be so much better if this department gave the actual inflation rate instead of just saying that ir decreased by 0.1% from the month previous; what was the inflation rate last month? Why do they hide this important information? Is it lying by ommission?
Hanging is not a deterrent to prevent murders. Almost every country that has abolished capital punishment has a lower rate of murder than those countries that still continue state sponsored executions. If the murder rate is to be lowered in this country then it will come through the enpowerment of women's control over their reproductive system. Less unplanned, unwanted, unloved children being born and raised in dysfunctional home environments translates directly to less criminal and sociopathic behavior. Such a simple solution which will not be implemented as long as the politicians depend upon the owners of the churches to get re-elected to lucrative positions of power and prestige.
Mr. Peter Young refers to this group as, I quote: violent. The violence appears to be : "its spraying of paint into the jet engines of military aircraft. I suspect Peter has been watching too much of the Far Right Nigel Garage's antics. Farage is desperate to gain political credibility, leading to real power. He probably sees himself as the next Winston Spencer C. , he is not and never will be. Reform is irrelevant and based only on hatred and division. Peter, please, stop reading the Mail and watching Farage's TV show.
It is very doubtful that the NHI system can remain financially viable for very long. Obviously the elected politicians will not dare to change anything until after the election for fear of losing voter support.

This columnist makes the common mistake of presenting emotive arguments to persuade on a subject that should only be viewed objectively. The Bahamas has horrible and ongoing problem with rampant murders, no one can dispute that; but when Mr. Ingraham asks how three old men in London can decide legal issues that effect the country when they do not know the country as well as someone who lives here, then he entirely misses the point. A case in any law court is decided on the legal arguments presented by the lawyers and the legislation pertinent to the case. That's it, there is no room for emotion, Justice is blind. The Privy Council is the most respected court in the world. The Bahamas is very fortunate to this resource. Many of our biggest investors count on the presence of the Privy Council to protect their investment from the possibility of local corruption. Countries who have abolished Capital punishment have the lowest murder rates, those who retain it have the highest in many cases.
