I am assuming (I am ignorant on this issue) that 55 signed industrial agreements mean that we have either 55 unions or 55 union factions. If so, can some one answer why we need 55 union or union adjacent organsiations? That seems excessive.
The problem is that even after two referenda the Bahamian voter - women included! - have not supported this issue. (This is just fact.) Two Bahamian PMs, from two different political parties, brought a referendum - the Bahamian voter - women included! - did not support either one. (This is just fact.) Two conclusions:
1) To say that "the government" does not take this issue seriously is a scatological observation; and 2) One cannot expect any government to bring this issue again via referendum in the medium to long term.
The simple fact (it appears) is that women are not nearly as invested in this issue as the upper crust women (Holowesko/Wilson) and so-called freedom fighters will have you believe.
Think it through Dawes, if you want to play that game. Had the FNM won the election (2012), they would have introduced VAT at 20% (there are multiple sources, The Tribune included, that have documented this).
No it won't, you lazy miscreant. There is not one voter that on election day will say: "I was going to vote for the PLP, but because Brave said that thing about creatives, I am going to switch my vote!" Richard should stay in his little hole that he has been in since his election defeat and stay there.
