Fatherhood: Meaning of life

I treated lightly sacred things, and went my way in search of fun.

Nassau does not need local govt

The Progressive Liberal Party government's plan to introduce local government in Nassau will add another unnecessary layer of bureaucracy in the capital, which is where the central government is headquartered. The prime minister resides in Nassau. In fact, every prime minister dating back to Sir Roland Symonette lived in Nassau. To the best of my knowledge, each of Nassau's 24 MPs resides in New Providence, where the House of Assembly and the Senate are located.

Governing for benefit of Bahamians

There are encouraging signs that the present PLP government will go further than Mr Christie’s in reversing the ingrained national inferiority complex that has done this country such harm in terms of policy since 1992.

Don’t pander to church - protect women instead

What does the Church have to do with whether a woman feels like having sex with her husband? Who are they to decide what a woman does with her body?

‘Davis must not compete with Mottley’

In May, Office of the Prime Minister Press Secretary Clint Watson said that Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis is in high demand globally due to his no-nonsense stance on climate change. Watson’s response was due to the Progressive Liberal Party government coming under scrutiny for its frequent travelling abroad.

Urgent cleaning of Goodman’s Beach

I urgently need help to address the cleaning of Goodman’s Bay Beach in Nassau.

Electric cars

EV’s or in simple language ‘electric vehicles.’

A journey to be able to tell a story

Thank you for allowing me such a limited space in your daily life to express a concern for the citizens of our beloved Bahamas.

Health visas

When is the Bahamas Government going to face reality and abolish the Health Visa and the three-day old rapid antigen test? They are both now completely a roadblock to secure bookings to your country. For those of us in England the test and three-day arrival is unworkable for most people.

Speaker’s rebuke of Russell

It is always a joy and a privilege to pen a set of impressions on matters of a national charge – and for the greater-good-betterment of a people seeking to have the shortcomings adjustments where necessary – and never to belittle anyone, group or groups of people, party/organisations. For it is my belief that there is no place or time left to point the finger...for it accomplishes little.

Gibson tried in court of public opinion

FREE National Movement (FNM) Leader Michael Pintard’s press release regarding the legal situation of Long Island MP Adrian Gibson was well within reason, considering the difficult circumstances his party finds itself in.

Leaders need to act over flooding

What has happened over the last few weeks should now more than ever be a wake up call for our country’s parliamentary leaders.

No evidence for electric car claim

We write in reference to a letter published on Friday. June 10th, in which Mr Kevin Evans opines that Electric Vehicles are unsafe in wet conditions.

Falling into the sewer

In my youth and middle years, The Bahamas was a wonderful place to live. Unfortunately, in my senior years I am constantly reflecting on the words of Shakespeare’s beleaguered protagonist, Macbeth, when he said “our way of life has fallen into the sewer”.

Young Bahamian scientists are losing their jobs

Because of a knee jerk, silly law passed by the former FNM government, our brightest young scientists are finding themselves out of work and at risk of permanent serious damage to their careers.

Speaker’s comments were wrong

I would appreciate the publication of this open letter in The Tribune addressed to House Speaker Patricia Deveaux for her criticism of Public Officer Mr. Stephen Russell, Director of The Bahamas National Emergency Agency, for his handling of the recent tornado that hit our island.

Electric cars are a risk of electrocution

In the 2022/2023 Budget Communication, Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis announced that his government will reduce the duty rate on electric vehicles valued under $70,000 to 10 percent.

BPL summer

ALLELUIA! I honestly was worried, but BPL will be able to supply electricity this summer.

Why not celebrate the Queen?

Today, Her Majesty our Queen - Queen of The Commonwealth of The Bahamas became Queen of the Realm and the Colonies. Could not be a stranger story... not planned as certainly the abdication of her Uncle was far from expected which plunged her father George VI to be King and she, Elizabeth the oldest a potential Queen probably after a long reign of her father.

Feeling pinch of inflation

Some months ago, the former US Treasury Secretary Larry Summers predicted the oncoming onslaught of inflation and offered advice on how the US government ought to counter it. However, the Joe Biden led government ignored him and now the chickens are coming home to roost.

Trampling on the Constitution?

Is our Constitution being trampled on?

No respect for Queen’s 70th Jubilee

We show enormous respect to our mothers - grandmothers and great grandmothers in that case if we have the privilege of still having her. We treat them with enormous respect - never forgetting their birthdays - anniversary’s and in many cases even if they have left us, we memorialise them on their anniversary of their births and deaths.

Officer testifies over $44,000 marijuana find

A POLICE OFFICER testified in the Magistrate’s Court yesterday in a man’s drug trial for possession of $44,000 worth of Indian Hemp.

Vaccinations still key to end pandemic

We are enjoying a gradual reduction of COVID-restrictions in The Bahamas. That is a good thing to be celebrated. We should remember that COVID-19 is still present and new variants are still developing and spreading around the globe. The impact of the COVID-19 virus lingers across our country. Some have lost loved ones. Many of us have friends or family who are still feeling long-term COVID effects.

No excuse for child abuse

I write this letter out of my frustration at the lack of an established national child sexual prevention programme in this country.
