Should add that there should be a set retirement age for Prime Ministers as well.

Also, a set term limits for MPs and for Prime Ministers. Cannot keep sending the same people devoid of ideas to Parliament every 5 years.

Lastly, if you want to represent a constituency in Parliament, you need to live in that constituency. Cannot want to live in Nassau, and represent family islands where you do not speak for or know the daily struggles those people deal with, because you living cloistered out west. Or you live our west and want to represent an over the hill area;

Just wondering, is the "national sport" a part of the Bahamas Games?

Again, dialogue.

If you seek to try throw disparaging remarks, then it becomes clear you are deflecting and have no actual proof to back up what you are saying.

We only do change when we can produce the evidence and then speak truth to power.

You claim Symonette to be despicable in calling it irregluar. What is the law that we can point to to show what Bell did was illegal and not irregular?

I believe Bell is totally wrong, but let's see if we can bring out the illegal, and then have a ground swell to ensure this act is taken seriously
