How do you answer an idiot? The short answer is you don't. But FM is the exception. Never ever have I seen a politician so self-absorbed and deluded!
He actually thinks the likes of Brave Davis (no doubt with his 'smart' backing) can lead the PLP to a win at the polls in 5 years while actually admitting that people are tired of the old guard? Jesus. Cab you spell s-t-u-p-i-d!
He and Davis are exactly what's wrong with that party. When are they going to wake up and realize that the Bahamian people do not care for either of them.
Man take a chill pill, hang it up and go join your old mash up and finished leader!
I think they give you the option of working to pay it off or paying it off with monthly installments. I can't see a student not getting a job and then returning to the U.S. to work without paying a dime of the loan back.
The fact the you didn't get a job does not exempt you from paying back the loan if you got a job as a result of your education. It's foolhardy to say otherwise.
If the loan debt was $155M when Fitzgerald was the Minister and is now $156M obviously Fitzgerald or the Ministry went ahead and granted another $1M in additional scholarships but I still find it unfair to stop the program completely and rob the new applicants who genuinely need the help of getting a scholarship. They must find a way to collect the outstanding funds and tighten up on the application and payment process.
I agree that we need to get rid of the Privy Council and only retain them for civic matters. Our Court of Appeal should be our final court with regard to criminal matters and if it takes a referendum to fix it then let just do that and be done with it instead of pussyfooting around.
First of all in order for the PLP to return the favor don't they have to win the government first?
Secondly they are threatening to prosecute the former FNM government which means the current one only has to remain uncorrupted and the fools will never see power for the next ten years.
You know, the buck has to stop somewhere with all this corruption. I'm glad Dr Minnis is cleaning house and if he puts the proper legislation and policies in place, even firing or prosecuting his current team, then we he would not only have secured his legacy but we'll really know that governance is no longer about corrupt politicians lining their pockets with taxpayers' dollars but we'll also know government is really about helping and advancing the people who put you in place. After all it's what you were hired for.
I say full speed ahead! If they stole our money then prosecute away. After all it's the people's time!!
Not to mention. I ran the strip a few weeks ago. The people manning the entrances were clearly bored. There was no traffic coming through. Also there's a video circulating on social media with Bahamian workers manning tables in the casinos with nobody there! This is bullsh*t!
I was about to make a similar comment. I ran down the beach after 8 the other morning. There were a handful of people on the chairs enjoying the sunrise. It literally looked like a ghost town. 50% occupancy my arse!
Politics was not a thankless task flyin'' Fred. We all know he used it to go to fly places some of us have never seen before and is still using it to stay relevant because he's the smartest one in the bunch and the only one who can save the party.

And I would like to see the commentary if the charges DO stick!
That should make the conversation very interesting.
