There are religious zealots who support state sponsored executions who would have perhaps been happy to have this now acquitted woman killed by hanging long before now.

We live in an age of hyperbole. A reasonably good meal must be described as amazing, a night out with friends is legendary. Peter Outten, chairman for the Carmichael Constituency Association has absolutely no idea of the reality of war. The FNM may have a spirited debate but what the Ukrainians are suffering and dying from is war, not a political patty's leadership race. As has been mentioned before to gain the overly generous PM's pension you need to serve 2 terms. Motivation forHon. Dr. Minnis right there. It is potentially worth a very large amount of money to him.

Anyone suggesting "turning the migrant boats back" is indulging in overly simplistic thinking. The boats will not enough water or food, the return takes much longer because of the prevailing winds. With thousands of square miles of Bahamian territorial waters how exactly can a boat be turned back? Asking the boat captain nicely probably won't work in the real world.

This is risible; Working from rounded figures; with 4,000 police officers for a population of 400,000, the country has one police officer per 100 citizens, In contrast the United Kingdom has one police officer per 866 citizens. This country has over 8 times as many per capita as the UK and apparently that is not enough. And we still have one of the highest murder rates of any country in the world. More policemen will make absolutely no difference in my opinion but let us hope that opinion is wrong. The RBPF is a large and inefficient top heavy bureaucracy, All bureaucrats have always sought more and yet more junior bureaucrats under their authority as it automatically gives them more seniority; I suspect this is at the root of the dramatic increase in costly manpower and womanpower.

What is the reason to hide the names of these people that he is suggesting engaged in nefarious behavior? He cannot be sued for slander if the allegations prove to be unfounded as he is covered by parliamentary privilege.
