THERE has been much behind-the-scenes muttering about the PLP government’s selection of some of the persons appointed for a year to the various statutory boards. Some of their Urban Renewal appointments have also been criticised.

Echoes from 2002 being heard in 2012

IT IS interesting to browse through The Tribune’s “dead” files only to discover that they are not so dead after all. In the Bahamas history has a way of repeating itself at very short intervals.

Court hampers Romney's plea to Hispanics

MITT ROMNEY wants to improve his troubled standing among Hispanic voters while saying as little as possible about immigration. Events keep working against him.

Is this meeting just one big charade?

Clarification needed on Gibson's statement

SHANE Gibson's threat to demand every company applying for a foreigner to justify its needs before his department will issue a Labour Certificate has certainly stirred up a hornet's nest of resentment among the business community -- a section of the community that Prime Minister Christie is going to need if he wants to keep Bahamians employed.

NOW THAT the election is over and reality has set in, we see some of the goldposts being moved back, election promises being explained, modified and even diluted. Some even going so far as to say: "We might have said this, but really we meant that."

Spain’s ailing banks threaten country’s finances

Spain is under rising pressure to find a lifeline for its deeply troubled banks.

Long on promises, short on delivery

A COMMENT by Prime Minister Perry Christie that he is pleased to be leading the country at this time because he feels the nation requires someone with his "temperament and personality" to bring in the levels of investment that are "quickly" needed, recalls a conversation we had with Mr Christie towards the end of his first administration as prime minister.

Time for PLP to talk tough to law breakers

UNLIKE PLP leaders, we are not so unreasonable as to blame the continuing rise in crime on either political party. We have always maintained that if one follows the trail, today's crime is a natural progression

PM Christie and his juggling act

WE THINK it is now time for Prime Minister Perry Christie to realise that he is Prime Minister of all of the Bahamas. He is no longer on the campaign trail playing to his hard core supporters.
