Another crap appointment by this so called New Day government. When will we raise above this slush fund job to croonies in this country?

Why give space in a newspaper to someone who clearly does not know what she is talking about with her predictions? She didn't know it then and still not now.

Could someone tell me why Urban renewal is doing this? House repair is not thier responsibility?

So the PM makes a speech on how climate change is affecting the Bahamas and nations should stop their polluting. Yet, they have a bill to sell to these very nations that are polluting credits so they could pollute more, rather than pushing them to cut their pollution.

WOW.

Talk about a government speaking out of two sides of its mouth.

The OPM press briefings have now become the new clown show in this country. People spew nonsense and have no facts to back it up and the media just presents the garbage they spew.

If Rodney has such a vast platform to speak to people, then tell me what difference it has made?

NONE, It's just a clown who was singing for his supper, and now he has been rewarded.

We need to call things what they are. Will we continue to let politicians make fools of us, rewarding do nothing people with cushy payoffs at the expense of the public?

What is his qualification? He lives in the community? Hell, I live in my community, so hire me to if that is what the qualifications for a cushy do nothing job is.

I guess the next move will be hiring people who live near the airport to be pilots for Bahamasair, or who live near BPL plants to fix BPL, or who live near the hospital to fix PMH.

So we back to the urban renewal way of being able to run urban renewal because you live urban renewal?

If Moncur was such a violence interruptor, then why has he not done it in his community and solved the violence? Why are we always doing the same stupidity in this country?. Hiring people who have no track record of solving the problems we are paying them big money to do. Another hand in the cookie jar getting paid for political support pre election.

You could not have said it better.

Don't understand these letter writers who will not look at their country's won stringent requirements and complain about that, but want to point fingers at our own which as you stated is more generous than theirs.

Well said!! You hit the nail on the head
