Where was the Securities Commission?
How do you think the matter got to court in the first instance? Little magical elves from the North Pole?

There is an age old saying: if Philip Simon is talking, then he is not speaking truthfully.

An IPO in The Bahamas is not complicated. For all that is slow and bureaucratic about our country, filing a prospectus is not one of them. This can be done as quick as they want to do.

My question is - why the hell would they want to do it. Just conduct a private offering, raise the money and move on. Bahamas markets are too illiquid for a public offering.

ExposedU2C, I am not a fan of your views or your politics, but I cannot disagree with you on this. You are spot on. In fact, when I saw the complete list of Committee members, I immediately knew that this effort will go nowhere. These are the same retreads that have gotten us here in the first place, but now we are asking them to lead us out of the doldrums. If you want to keep the two Rolles, then fine, I guess. At least they are both under 50. But the rest should be removed. Need I remind that this is a NDP for the 40 years. Shouldn't a few professionals under 35 comprise the Committee. Oh well, for this day at least, Exposed you are correct.

I disagree with your last paragraph. The FNM has a lot to lose. A second failed by-election bid will cast serious doubts on whether the people are confident that a Michael Pintard-led government can win the general election. I think it would be disastrous for Pintard. A PLP loss is a loss to a good candidate (Brown) in a generally see-saw seat. Not a fatal blow by any means.
Pintard has more to lose than Brave in this by-election.

It is *Darron* not Darren.

Come on Kelly Campbell.

They were "accused" based on political affiliation. For all your nonsense about being a "freethinker" you seem still stuck in a Nelson Mandela-type jail.

That you consider Joe Darville and Sam Duncombe the bastion of environmental integrity is quite comical.

Yes, we get it: you are a hopeless FNM supporter unable to see objectivity if it slapped you in your face.

**Mrs McCartney-Russell could not estimate the cost of the damages but said all stolen items would be replaced.**
Someone needs to tell the author of this amateurish article that Mrs. Russell is an educator, not an insurance adjustor. How in carnation would she (Russell) have even a clue as to estimate the cost of damages? The reporter that asked the question should be resent to first year journalism school

This is such a poorly written article - devoid of any statistics whatsoever. So, we will run to any mechanic who says that they sell a lot of tires and all of a sudden it is a crisis? Where is the evidence of the "swamped" that was claimed in this article? What is the swamped figure compared to last year? The proprietor who claims to handle 15 calls a day - how much is that compared to this time last year? last month? two years ago?
Good grief: Calsey Johnson, Ed Bethel and Rusty Bethel are all turning over in their graves at this pathetic nonsense that attempts to pass itself as journalism.
