What puzzles me is that the Minister don't want to call then D average, but yet she give statistics talks about how many got subjects with at least a D. So what gives.

26 in Cabinet and the other give ambassador or some other board director position.

So are there really even any back benchers to begin with?

Wow. This view from the PM speaks volumes. These dudes really do not believe in transparency.

2026 cannot come soon enough.

The fact that as unions they went and signed an MOU with a political party, what does he expect?

Is this serious? Only in The Bahamas, people can do nonsense like this.

And then talking about competition legislation so people can compare prices? Seriously? I can compare prices now. Why not require gas stations to post sings so I can see the prices posted?

What does it mean his name, photograph and personal history is closely aligned? Either is is him or is not. Stop the ambiguities that can malign people.

If we had no idea we had some of the most unintelligent people running tis country, this person from DIR just proved it.

Business license is a product. Did this DIR person recognize that all products have a set price? Not a guess price and at the end let's see if you paid too much or too little.

And don't they know id you pay too much you get a cash refund? Not a government credit.

This has to be a joke.

Please reporters, challenge these people on the nonsensical things they say, rather than just printing their hot air verbatim.

How there has not been wide protest over this foolishness is nonsense.

I am sorry, But these two paragraphs here show the issue that something is seriously wrong.

How can you regularize foreigners in no time, but Bahamians have to take an eternity to be regularize? If the process is delayed for Bahamians, then the process should have the same delay for foreigners.

It is clear our governments live by the belief that their own citizens are second class.
