Cooper is too smart to allow politics to play into this game. I was one who was skeptical about going to the IMF, until I listed to the economists explain what this particular loan was about.

I hate when educated people act ignorant. Culmer needs to admit that the PM has not openly dealt with the matter, but just shun the press in answering the questions. It does not hurt you to admit yo may have done wrong in a matter. People respect you more. The problem is that Minnis is getting just like Christie in his last term and Ingraham in the last 2 years of his second term. When you believe you don't need to answer people and are big than them be careful.

On Dr Sands? That story is dead

Let's parlay as you say:

The extra days would only be for review. If you look at the BJC syllabus, that can be completed in 2 years, as students are able to write BJC from grade 8. It is the same with BGCSE. Students can write it in grade 11.

The so called 8000 are representative sadly of what keeps our country back. They had ample time to prepare. Even being home, there was access to online learning and those who didn't have access, there were a number of NGOs out there providing that ability.

Excuse making will never move us to a higher level of development as a country.

SO need to blame the pastors. They the ones who want to run back into the four walls rather than be out in the community to do real ministry where the people are at.

Sorry, but trade unions in our country today need to be kept out. They are only terrorists and not concerned about building the Bahamas.

What in the world Davis talking about? He from pillar to post.

The petition reads: “Due to the coronavirus pandemic, schools have been closed since March 16, 2020. Many students do not have the privilege to access electronic devices which resulted in not being allowed access to virtual education platforms.

How much is many students with access? Is is 5%? 20%? 80%? No way a petition like that should be placed out without giving the evidence to support it.

And then government teachers crying for more pay, many of them who were not teaching since March but bbeingpaid. Child please.

Why do we as Bahamians always have to want to find a way out rather than rise up to a challenge?

Why would you turn to the person under whom the actual protest is occurring and who is responsible for it with his racist rants? Doesn't make sense to me.

Why waive fees? The Director General of Tourism is running all over the place talking about bookings up and people jumping wanting to come to the Bahamas. So since the tourism product caters to the high end premium tourist and all these people jumping to want to come to the Bahamas, why do you need to waive fees, if as the Director makes the claim they want to come? Makes no sense to me. Waive fees for eh high end premium tourists with money, but not or the average Bahamian.

Maybe we should give a letter to the Commissioner of Police to take a leave.
