From:TheBahamasWeekly.com Bahamian Politics “Crime on the rise, the secret Baha Mar deal still sealed, no Boundaries Commission report, credit rating downgraded to junk status, failing schools – and all the Bahamian people get is silence and no plans from the embattled Prime Minister and his PLP Government. For the past four and a half years the Bahamian people have only heard empty rhetoric and broken promises from the PLP Government and now that we have entered the election season we continue to expect to hear more empty rhetoric. The Prime Minister should finally stand up and admit to his failures these past four and a half years and finally allow the Bahamian people to judge his Government on their leadership- or lack thereof these past four and a half years.” “It is time for the embattled Prime Minister to finally give the people the opportunity to vote for new leadership for this our country. The first step is to finally table the Boundaries Commission report in Parliament on Wednesday after many delays these past few months. The Bahamian people deserve to see what constituencies the PLP Government have drawn to try and save their political futures. The Bahamian people are ready to hold this PLP Government accountable for their failed leadership and the lack of action on the key issues facing our country.” “Bahamians know they deserve better and understand that we will never see any progress on the key issues affecting our country while embattled Prime Minister Christie remains in charge. It is time to finally allow the Bahamian people to decide which direction they want their country to move in – continuing down a route of failure under the PLP or a new direction and leadership under the FNM. We know that Bahamians want the government returned to them and the only way for this to happen is under new leadership with the FNM. When the PLP is removed from power this next election, the people will finally have their time and the FNM will work every day to serve them.”
