PLP_Catastrophe 10 years, 2 months ago on PM disappointed with lack of shanty town programme

Haitians have overtaken our airwaves, inciting/uniting “their people”. Their voices need to be shut down a.s.a.p., this is serious, and they need to carry their you-know-whats back to Haiti where they are sending every penny they make here,choosing to live like rats in shantytowns but enriching Haiti and Martelly and bringing disease by crapping up our soil by their filth, human waste in our water table - Chickungunya? Cock fighting and coal production still continuing?

It is obvious that PC has lost control of his cabinet and MP's,that is if he ever had any control in the first place. He is trying to save face and stall for time. Too little,too late. More and more MP's are openly defying him. I suppose this is why he constantly reminds everyone that he is PM. This situation has the potential of making the gambling referendum fiasco,look like a joke.

"I decide". That's funny. How many decisions has he really made. I true LEADER makes decisions and let's the chips fall where they may. He's not even close.

TalRussell 10 years, 2 months ago on Christie: I decide on Wells future

PM Christie has been unable or unwilling to have risked a quick and clean mop-up of all things "Letter of Intent." Thousands of Comrades from all political stripes are gathering on street corners, restaurants and even church basements in Nassau Town, Freeport and all Family Islands, asking each other if, there is really a cover-up in play - why so, who did what?? Unfortunately, for the PM, the talk may have extended beyond the PM and is now questioning if, the PLP government will survive their mandate to 2017? The talk is quickly moving from the PM's office, DPM and their Parliamentary Secretary if, all three men may have done used up all their credibility with Bahamalander's, to be left to get to the bottom of the who, whom, why and where this "Letter of Intent" committing $600 million in hard-earned taxpayers monies originated? A urgent mop-up task has to be done by appointing a retired Justice of the Supreme Court - cause transparency is not even being pretended to be done by either of these three men's - who sure as hell are starting to looks be ducking something or another? But why the duck? Each day the PM is got's Bahamalander's wondering, how long can he really expect to be keeping up appearances, while acting likes all is well in the PM's high office with his DPM and Parliamentary Secretary? PM when even the Shanty Town residents are scratching they brows, you got's realize - things ain't looking-up for this PLP administration to run to 2017?

The caption for this story tells the whole story about the state of party politics and democracy in this country............. even though Renward was elected to represent his constituency, he is bound to swear to the PM and the party machinery .......... there is no freedom/ democracy there.

Who cares about "all" governments today in this minute and this conversation? It's your responsibility NOW. Chickungunya? Telling us about all governments is abdicating your responsibility. How can you talk about being disappointed a year later??? You're in charge. If the person you asked to take care of this a "month" ago hasn't taken any steps MOVE THEM. One year, smt. But you seem to want to allow everything to get out of control then wail about how bad it is and what other people didn't do. Do you drive outside of Cable Beach? Do you look up when you pass Saunders Beach? Are you satisfied with how this country looks? Have you seen the main post office building? Have you noted the general duttyness of this town, east, west, north and south? Who did you leave to take care of these things? Have you asked them for an accounting? What could they possibly be doing with the money you budgeted for them? Giving it away for free...?

Both governments in the country has a accountability issue. If a proper system was in place alot of these slow acting government implementations would be reduced. But the sad thing is if i attempt to erect a structure the government will come out of know where and stop me. So why both governments allow this nasty shit to happen in this country? The world may never know.

Comrades, if we have no reason not to take the PM at his own word, it leaves all we's to suspect that on July 3, 2013, Honourable Minister Kenred Dorsett Minister of the Environment and Housing and a member of 'good standing' in the cabinet of PM Christie, did not wish to 'share' much less keep the PM 'abreast' of the following communication? Good Lord Almighty the Minister says he got's pictures and all?

Shanty Town Report dated July 3, 2013 Authored by: Minister Kenred Dorsett M.P. Ministry of the Environment and Housing

"In December of 2012, I announced that I was establishing a special unit within the Department of Environmental Health Services (DEHS) to deal with the environmental issues of Shanty Towns. This unit is headed by Assistant Director of DEHS Lennard Miller. He and his team have produced a report detailing the concerns that need to be addressed within these makeshift communities from an environmental and sanitation standpoint. DEHS has inspected these towns/communities and have included pictures in the report that depict the conditions in which the residents of these communities are living. I wish to 'share' this information with the general public.  As I mentioned in my recent budget communication, these communities (Shanty Towns) operate outside of the requirements for proper sanitation, without regard to the building code and in violation of safety requirements for electricity. I also mentioned the possibility of diseases such as cholera being born because of the unsanitary disposal of human and other forms of waste within these communities. 

I would like the general public to know that the government of The Bahamas is committed to bringing resolution to this age old issue. Not only are these towns unsightly and unsanitary but as you will see in the photos provided they are not fit for human dwelling. I assure you that work is being done and will continue to be done to address this issue for the benefit of those living in this unsanitary conditions and Bahamas generally. 

I will keep 'the public abreast' of all further progress as regards this initiative." 

Thank you

Da Minister of Soon be No More Stinky Shanty Towns

Comrade PLP_Catastrophe I do agree with you on that we do need to be concerned over Haitian programming takeing over the nation's airwaves, when Guardian Radio turns over their Monday - Friday 7;30 to 10:30 night programming time-slot to some Creole Talk Show, regardless of what the host says his show is all about. Surprisingly, you are the first blogger to have mentioned this abuse of airwaves. Why the station's owners think this is a smart advertisers move baffles hell out me?

I just don't get it why Guarding Radio advertisers would want to advertise on the station's Monday -Fridays 5 days every damn week Creole programming time slots. What insane advertiser want to pay to restrict the exposure of their radio ads to only be aired to a select and smaller listening fringe audience group. And, since we're on the talk radio subject, am I allowed to even as as to where in hell did they go to 'dig up' their new talkie host Comrade Carlton from?

Investigation process..

PM - Wells, come to my office.

PM - wells, did someone instruct you to sign the LOI?

Wells possible answers-

1) No one instructed me to sign it. I was acting on my own.

PMs answer - you did not have the authority - you are fired!

2) Wells says, PM, I was instructed by Joe Blow who is my senior.

PMs answer - Wells you are fired!

PM calls Joe Blow and says - Joe Blow - You are fired!

Done deal, now let's move on.

Honestman 10 years, 2 months ago on Christie: I decide on Wells future

“I have to make the determination. I will make the determination and I will communicate that determination. I just want to be able to say at this point I have to make the determination as to whether that event in the scheme of my government goes to the root of Mr Wells’ existence as a part of government.”

What the heck???? Will someone please relieve the PM of his duties - he is clearly under severe stress and no longer able to communicate straight forward ideas.
