EDITORIAL: An uneasy seat for the commissioner

POLICE Commissioner Anthony Ferguson could not be blamed if he felt a little uneasy this morning.

Leaders have got us into the mess we are in today

We are between a rock and a very hard place under this administration. Yes, as a student of Bahamian politics, unique in and of itself, I concur that one should not necessarily blame the Competent Authority and his people them for the abject mess we are in today. It is a given, however, that while they could not have anticipated or stopped Dorian last year or the uninvited arrival of the pandemic, their responses have been dismal at best.

Rising of the Phoenix

I have long believed that had the Hon Philip ‘Brave’ Davis, MP, QC (PLP-Cat Island) been leader of the Progressive Liberal Party a year or so before the last general elections that he would have become Prime Minister and the PLP would have held onto the government.

EDITORIAL: What one proposes, the other opposes

IT’S amazing the different views people can have when in Opposition as compared to when one’s party is in office.

EDITORIAL: Booster shots are to be welcomed

AFTER the push to get Bahamians fully vaccinated against COVID-19, the time has come to look forward to the next stage – and for many people, that means booster shots.

Our system gives one person too much power

The general elections scheduled for 2022 will not be our fathers’ elections. There is an emerging realignment of politics as we know it in our wonderful nation. The FNM is now approaching its third year back in office. While there have been some small baby steps and minimal successes, the political jury is still out on its performance or lack thereof over the last two years and counting.

Managers split $4m in Grand Lucayan payout

Managers at the Grand Lucayan Resort received in excess of $4million in voluntary separation pay out on Thursday, ending a long and bitter negotiations between the union and the government.

‘Don’t scrap home construction programme’

FORMER Bahamas Contractors Association president Leonard Sands yesterday urged the government not to scrap its home construction programme as the sale of serviced lots was not a real solution to increase Bahamian home ownership.

House of Cards

THE cobbling together of aspects of the political divide to create a monstrosity to take out Dr Hubert A Minnis (FNM-Killarney) and to emasculate the now tattered Free National Movement is nothing short of a spectacle and display of rank ambition.

The coup led by Loretta

As the Executive Director of The Sycamore Club, a non-governmental civic organisation, I and my colleagues are deeply concerned with the pathetic state of the opposition in our wonderful nation. Democracy demands the existence of alternative viable political parties. The recent coup d’état against the hapless Dr Hubert A Minnis by his former parliamentary colleagues signalled the end game for the FNM as we commonly know it.

A farewell to a loving mother and hard-working Tribune employee

WHILE THE family, friends and loved ones are saddened by the recent passing of Anna Fox, they find comfort in knowing that she lived a full, honourable and loving life.

Shock and awe or lunacy?

As a progressive Bahamian I am deeply shocked and awed by the demonstration of pure and unadulterated political lunacy by the newly ‘appointed’ Cinderella. There are some people who still have faith in the judgment of Loretta Butler-Turner I am not one of them. This woman was offered a chance, on a silver platter, to become the leader of a major party and to become, worrisome but possible, the first female Prime Minister in her own right.

EDITORIAL: Potential voters turned away because of dress code

WITH the 2017 election deadline only four months away, there is growing concern that Bahamians are so turned off by their politicians that they are not registering to vote.

EDITORIAL: Fears about US world leadership

WITH the US presidency stumbling from one crisis to another during the last few months, those who want it to fail are now scenting blood in the aftermath of the furore over the drama at Charlottesville and the latest in a string of high profile departures from the White House. But what does this mean for America’s position in the world?

EDITORIAL: Let businesses know of changes in good time

RECENTLY in this column, we talked about the ease of doing business – or lack thereof – in The Bahamas.

Christie dismisses 'Jackass' claim

PRIME Minister Perry Christie said he will not allow the FNM to “misrepresent” the position of the government and accused the party of “shamelessly trying to exploit” the gambling referendum.

OPINION: Vote your conscience - but make sure you vote

TODAY’S referendum is another official opportunity for all citizens of our Bahamas to deepen our democracy and help to correct an age-old vice and an out-of-control national pastime.

Injunction filed by numbers bosses

A SUPREME Court injunction will be filed this morning by attorney Wayne Munroe to block any move by the government from interfering with the operations of Island Games, Island Luck, Asue Draw, Whatfall.com and FML after Prime Minister Perry Christie ordered all webshop gaming operations closed last night with immediate effect.

‘Dogmatic’ Price Control threat to Fresh market

AML Foods chairman yesterday blasted the “dogmatic” approach taken by the Government’s Price Control Department for damaging its Solomon’s Fresh Market brand, warning that profits were being threatened by an insistence that all products in certain categories be regulated.
