Human rights activist calls for Wayne Munroe to be stripped of QC status
This so called activist is very selective about his battles. The island that he lives on, Freeport, has major issues with child abuse. Where is Darville's voice concerning child abuse????? http://freeport.nassauguardian.net/News… If the welfare of children are not the biggest concern in our country, then what is? Besides Darville was a former school principal. You would think he woulda have something to say. This man ain serious 'bout no human rights, trust me!

Are expats still welcome in The Bahamas?
yes, he may be a bad example. however in these days, I would not recommend a non-working foreign spouse to an expat to even consider cutting her children's hair herself, or be a Yoga teacher and take donations. This government is feeding its people's fear. get Bahamar going and you reduce the amount of fear and anxiety in this country by 10,000 per cent already.

PM signs $6.5m contract for new causeway at Fishing Hole Road
The ocean comes into the creek during a storm surge. While it may be impossible to stop the bridge from flooding and becoming impassable during a hurricane the causeway must be designed to withstand the force of a surge. Otherwise $6 million will go awash. Least we forget what happened to the Glass Window Bridge in Eleuthera just after it was replaced, or the bridge connecting Miami to the Florida Keys in the 1960's. Even before construction was completed.

THE BIG QUESTION: What would you do as Prime Minister for a day?
If i was PM for the day, i would take that opportunity to reconnect with not only my constituents, but the nation as a whole. Now are precarious times, and we need to engage in dialogue with the people of the Bahamas. Too long has the gov't simply told the people of the Bahamas what is going to happen, with little to no input or consultation with the people or relevant stakeholders. NHI would be a good place to start in these discussions. The feasibility of Junk Carnival as an annual event would also be another topic. The potential to redirect mis-allocated funds into so desperately needed social initiatives definitely a topic.
I would address government transparency and freedom of information. The gov't has to be accountable, and even thought it will always have faults, increased accountability to the citizens and the global community as a whole would afford significant progress for this country, and help address the rampant conflict of interest issues that are standard procedure in the country.
I would do a walk about through brain and grants town, nassau village, foxhill, bluehill and all of our long standing communities and reassure the people that we as a gov't are there for them, and not only seen in these hoods after someone dead and we looking for some PR photos. No, as PM i would personally meet with the disenfranchised of our country and let them know that they are not forgotten.
Finally, to finish off my day as PM, i would have a family friendly fair at an appropriate public venue. Bring the family come out meet, greet, eat and have fun and let us reconnect and unify as a people. Let us come together as Bahamians with love and joy. Let us not be a have and have-not nation, but a nation of Christian love and compassion once again. Let us all be able to out at night and have fun with no gun shots and no robberies and no beefing.
And let me as a PM lead by example, unward, onward, forward, together Bahamaland!

Central Bank urged: ‘Step in’ over BOB’s $100m loss
The Government of The Bahamas could take a gold bar and turn it into dirt, that is how much of a failure it is. Only a fool would invest in ANYTHING the government of The Bahamas is involved in. The government of The Bahamas is corrupt, unethical, immoral, and the biggest threat to The Bahamas there is. This government is destroying OUR country, only a fool or a blind supporter would not be able to comprehend this fact!

Roberts mocks FNM candidates
Bradley Roberts is absolutely correct and cannot be questioned on his expert opinion here as a scumbag who certainly well knows others who are very likely to be prone to his scumbag ways. Minnis is picking candidates who more than likely are (or will turn out to be) no better than Big Bad Brad and he knows it! It is now a virtual certainty the FNM will lose the next general election because of Minnis's obstinate refusal to step aside for the greater good of the country and the FNM party. The governing apparatus of the FNM has allowed Minnis to hijack the party for his own power hungry greedy needs and Bahamian voters will therefore see to it that the FNM party is given an appropriate burial when they next go to the polls.

Maynard tells BTC boss: go back to Jamaica - now
I blame sucessive governments and in particular the PLP for this monster they created called the unions. This Maynard character can speak publicly with impunity it seems. If there is anyone who should leave this country and never return, it should be this fool. He should be considered a national threat and dealt with appropriately. The nonesence he spews is downright dangerous.

Good point. Best and only option in light of weather realities. And jobs created will have reviving employment. Govt must spend inject good paying jobs, not stenching like past Rulers economic controllers and Pleasantville Burma Road.
