Tribune/Neil...So who is Mr. Flowers?
The article introduces this person and never speaks to who he is and why he matters.

it only implies that he is a reident but just jumps from the consulation to a Mr. Flowers. It should say "during the consultation a resident, Mr. Flowers..."

So half the time she is Ms. Pratt and the other half she is Ms. Seymour? is the article talking about two people?

Agree its a complete shift and I suspect you had political decision vs. a technical one and the latter lost. Actually i'd say it began when when they reduced the food rates to 5%. Halkitis and co were loudly against differing rates but that is gone.

you asked the question, got the answer i'm not sure what else anyone can do for you.
Information is out there to read, unless you think there is a massive conspiracy that every employee in the MOF or CBB or treasury or any agency hat lends the govt money is a part of.

Bahamasair is a loss making airline, WsC is a loss making corporation, many govt workers are on noncontributory pensions, PHA has millions in uncollected billings.

Where do you think the money comes from to to cover these costs? Part is from taxes the rest is borrowed. The largest % of govt revenue is VAT. I'm not sure what else to tell you.
