They need to bring to light the one in Grand Bahama where they move Social Services form the Government building to rent a building owned by Darville's brother.

And Philip Davis said noting over this and this one.

That's why Davis has no right to speak on calling for the resignation of anyone until he cleasn up his won party.

So true. Sadly the comments show the ignorant state of our country who will judge someone guilty on allegations that do not even name him in court documents.

Yet, it shows Turnquest puts others above himself. Just thankful for his service.

Spot on.

So sad that we have reporters and not journalists in our country who would challenge the dribble of foolishness

I believe right is right and wrong is wrong. If a court of law convicts the DPM, then he should do the honourable thing. If it does not, then the matter is dead.

But Davis and the PLP ought to be the LAST set of people even seeking to get into a matter on calling for resignation, as they have no credibility at all in the matter. All they are seeking to do is score political points. To the uneducated it feeds them, but to educated folks, that tired game played out.

The Director General of Tourism is one person who you ought not to take anything from. She makes the garbage statement that the employees and staff won't be allowed to leave. Really? Even Atlantis own statement does not say that.

It's better on December 26 and January 1 that I go on youtube and watch a previous parade, without the Eternally looooooong breaks between groups. Sorry, but a bunch of interviews and testimonials is not Junkanoo. That's a documentary.

*Speaking to reporters yesterday on the sidelines of an event in his constituency, the Speaker went further with his criticism, suggesting that Prime Minister Dr Hubert Minnis has acted like a “demigod” in the face of pushback on matters of principle that challenge the executive branch of government.*

*This should not be condoned, he said.*

*“What has happened over the years is the complete erosion of the authority and function and purpose of the legislative branch,” Mr Moultrie said. “So, we have developed situations where the leader or the Prime Minister in these jurisdictions can function like a demigod – like a person who is a maximum leader, a person who could just dictate.”*

Journalistic integrity is important. The Speaker never signaled out the Hubert Minnis specifically as a demi-god. Based on the comments in this article attributed to the Speaker, he was referencing all Prime Minister and leaders, and not a particular.

Journalistic integrity requires detailing the facts, and not seeking to project personal opinions onto what someone has not said.

I agree with the Speaker however, that Parliament has been treated by governments and that we do need an independent Legislature, just like we need and independent Judiciary. When both of these supposedly independent branches have to depend on the Executive brand for appointments and finances, can we really say they are independent? Me thinks not!
