The odds of Davis&Co supporting any of these laudable policies is nil.
Why?
They were voted into office promising these, they were just voted in again despite never fulfilling any of these.

As for a lottery? It’s another tax on the poor and worse the odds of any Bahamian lottery commission running w/o massive corruption is just laughable.

The politiking of Davis&Co is just too ridiculous.
The PM was swept into power promising reform…but never delivered,
really no big surprise.

Now the spectre of being swept out again has his party repeating the same last minute corrupt and oh so shaky give-aways as in 2017.

And it seems Davis&Co’s are out of chips and ideas!
They’re even repeating the same empty promises and speechifying.

So folks attired in red shirts were turned away at the polls in 2017, but the guy in charge of the process can wear his PLP gear??

Only six???

Not So!
PM Ingraham was the first to invite outside observers in 2012, but this is hardly the first quibble we’ve had with Davis and his running numbers game!
Furthermore the Opposition parties started calling out Christie & the PLP for the same observers ahead of the 2017 election to ensure a fair result. In fact there were PLP members and MPs grumbling about the need for such.

Now one understands that putting together a team of seasoned observers is quite a task yet when Pintard wrote to the US Embassy requesting those services on April 8th (& of those from caricom) neither had received an invite from Davis&Co despite the election being the next month. There’s always a method in their madness!

And one can only hope Davis&Co do not repeat the same skullduggery noted by those observers in 2017 including cutting the advertised advanced polls at the last minute from two to one…

Without any audit or independent verification these figures should be labeled fictitious.

Take Mr Fox for ex. His esports ventures are labeled as ‘flat’ by biz indices, especially since he sued his partners w/EchoFox and Vision Venture Partners. He’s admitted the Covid pandemic was devastating to his sustainable concrete start up Partanna Global, and even since he’s only managed to raise $20M to sustain it. So if he’s got $450M stashed away why hasn’t he used some of this capital??

In 2022 he announced a deal with the present government to build 1000 low cost homes for Bahamians, for Dorian victims but where are these homes, who lives in them??
We know he built a spec house supposedly with all products from the Bahamas, that he’s announced some 30 something homes this year in the Abacos, but geez man it’s now 2026.

And we know he went to the PLP first, then the FNM. I do get the vibe he’s attempting, that a guy who is already a millionaire so many times over might look less threatening than say someone on the make for contracts, to line his pockets with taxpayers $$ but that never stopped anybody from Davis&Co…

Scam Alert!!!

How much did this expensively photo op staged prior to the coming election cost the Bahamian people?
And one cannot imagine this project beginning any time soon since “the contractor” isn’t identified, there’s no budget, costs or architectural rendering offered!
And can we assume this was a no bid contract as per usual??

Chester has had plenty of time to correct the downward spiral of tourists’ dim expectations of this country’s willingness and ability to correct crime and investigate those occurrences.
What he needs is a boot to motivate him the whole of them, but there’s no willingness to protect either citizens or visitors amongst the fat cats of Davis&Co polishing off their last meals on our dime.

Add to that the growing number of health and safety incidents receiving international coverage, poorly staffed (or none at all ) medical clinics & police stations for victims of rape, road accidents, and/or health emergencies.
No upkeep of public parks and beaches labeled “disgusting” in social media, no monitoring of drug dealers and sexual abusers on our beaches.
Regular stabbings and shootings at a former tourist favorite-the Fish Fry.

I recall when President Obama was elected & everybody was afraid he’d open up tourism to Cuba and the Bahamas’ goose would be cooked. I thought please, we’ve been dining off our golden goose for so long we can’t see past our fat…!

Stop talking nonsense! Nurses and doctors are the first responders to the medical needs of vulnerable Bahamians and they haven’t the facilities, the supplies and/or the medications to do so.
Not even the equipment to get a foreign object out of a child’s nose? That’s ridiculous!

The buck stops at Darville yet he has refused all responsibility.
He, Davis&Co blame everyone else, but never do what’s needed, ie. their sworn duties.
