Nassau, Bahamas - Sidney Collie, Chairman of the Free National Movement (FNM), issued the following statement on the PLP currently being in complete disarray:
“The truth is searching for the light among the PLP and it is finally coming out! It must be hard for the PLP membership to receive a dose of reality from their very own, but it was MP Leslie Miller who recently set aside the PLP talking points about their fading hopes for re-election. It must have been a shock to their ears when they heard him speak the truth when he said that the Bahamian people will hold the PLP accountable in next year’s election for the continuing Baha Mar debacle. It is blatant that the PLP Government has stood steadfast in ignoring problems small and large–Baha Mar – even as the people suffer under the reality of their failed
leadership.”
“And as MP Miller spoke the truth, the PLP rolled out Minister V. Alfred Gray to reassure the public that the PLP is working for them. The irony of the PLP having this duo speaking out on their behalf is not lost on the Bahamian people. It was just months ago that MP Leslie Miller was stating that the PLP, ‘help(s) those who help you’, when it came to awarding lucrative government contracts to allies and supporters. And not to be outdone it was Minister Gray who defended a sweetheart deal to a party member, telling us that, ‘the government will do as much
as it can for the people who supported its members.’”
“Back then the duo were on the same page. Now there are clear cracks in the PLP’s propaganda machine, revealing party infighting and disarray. Maybe MP Miller and Minister Gray should realize that the PLP’s long efforts focused on enriching themselves at the people’s expense have led to dire economic conditions. While they engage in secret deals with Baha Mar, Moody is breathing down their necks with another potential downgrade of our country’s credit.”
“This PLP Government now must reap what it has sown these past four years. Their brazen corruption and startling incompetence has crippled our country and the people are tired of their empty rhetoric and broken promises. It truly seems that even some of their members are finally realizing what we all know.”
