It is often a mistake to fight your court case in the press, . When you lose the case the public knows of your distress, .. ..When you claim to be a captain but don't declare of what, .. .Many are left to wonder if this true or not,, , ,,,If you claim on social media that you have valid lease, .. ... ...But Why Iwas it not published in a publicity release? .. ..Tying flag onto a building gives no one any rights, .. ... .. Most especially if those flags are left flying through the nights, . ... .Was this all a gamble, betting on weaker hand, . .. ... Knowing that a win would gain valuable crown land?

I stand to be corrected by those who know better; it is my understanding that no sale of property is completed by a lawyer acting for the purchaser until all the real property tax owed to the government is settled. If this is true, then all those expatriate properties do not escape their tax obligation; they only delay them. So, no problem.

God'spee: I do not think that any nib money is paid to " llegal Haitians for their 6 Children" nib only pays to those who have contributed and does not pay out to anyone at all for children. Apologies for countering your prejudges.

SP, You maket he common mistake of believe that Wikpedia is a source of absolute irrefutable truth. It is not, it is constantly evolving as the entries submitted are amended by those who have a deeper knowledge of the particular subject. The entry regarding the hour glass is based the accepted narrative but that narrative is simply wrong. Try it for yourself; throw an hourglass out of a window and see what happens. You will be picking up pieces. But thank you for taking the time to read my comment and then respond. My knowledge comes from speaking with someone who was there rather than an on line encyclopedia.

SP; If you really believe Milo Butler "threw" the hour glass out of the window of the house of assembly please tell me how such a delicate glass object survived? Many people are sadly misinformed due the plp rewriting of our history, it was carefully handed out to one of the hundreds of plp supporters gathered outside in a piece of pre-arranged political theatre designed to impress the ignorant masses. I t worked really well.

If the reef is severely damaged it may take decades to grow back. In a country with well-functioning legal and judicial systems such as our Neighbour to the north, this damage would have resulted in very very high fines for the freight boat operator.
