Nassau is a war zone ....... Worst murder rate than countries who at war.
But it seems that many in the 242 Govt only care about how tourists see the crime rate. That's callous.
What is scarier is that many Bahamians are convinced that there is a strong link between politicians, police and thugs. This means that crime is being facilitated by those who are supposed to be eradicating it. That gives the common ppl a feeling of hopelessness in the "fight against crime".
Can we trust the investors, lawyers & politicians who orchestrated this deal? At NO time did these ppl held town meetings or focus group chats on LI. So that is why most of LI ppl are not excited about this news.
We gave our input on the DC airport. We saw the plans and the signing ceremony. This "resort" is like a hologram.
It is a dangerous precedent to set when teachers can rise up against Administration and force a duly appointed public officer out of his/her office based on an amateur list of so-called grievances that have NO substance or details.
It is so sad that rabble rouser Belinda Wilson will always find a few clowns on any school campus who may themselves have NO good record in the workplace.
We cannot be sidetracked by stupid drama. Professionals should have the ability to resolve workplace matters more amicably than what BUT displays. BEMU should be applauded for seeking constructive resolution strategies. If the Principal is at fault, then she should step down after a proper investigation of the facts.
Emilio, Bannister had a deep hole to dig out of. He ran into problems with the Board, but he was quite successful in rebounding from Dorian and trying to get Clifton & Blue Hills plants sorted out.
Of course, Bannister couldn't cut loose the Shell/Focol fuel grip, but he did try the hedging deal.
Bannister did 10X better than Davis. Sears is a lost case.

The country is spiraling out of fiscal control under the PLP ......... we saw this coming.

The PLP is a Mafia-like organization ............. Basil McIntosh will be sacrificed for the Acklins-based gangster.
Basil McIntosh is a rich old man ......... the PLP will richly reward him to step aside (now or later). Just like they did to Persewell.
This is a dangerous precedent, but not something not to be expected from the PLP.

Munroe should speak to his colleague first, but not take on another Ministry's affairs.
Munroe has to FIRST assume responsibility for the multitude of failures in his Ministry.

Sadly, the concept and reality of a fully functioning SWF is still a pipedream in our present state of political immaturity.
Pinder may be on to something, but 242 is still unable to make the PAC work in the House of Assembly.
