Sidney Collie, Chairman of the Free National Movement (FNM), issued the following statement on the embattled Prime Minister stating he is eager for another term:
 
“The embattled Prime Minister may be eager for another term, but the Bahamian people are not.  He may think that he has done an excellent job for the Bahamian people, but they know that the PLP Government has been more concerned about taking care of their foreign allies and political supporters than the Bahamian people.  Their record stands for itself – junk bond status, endemic unemployment, and rising crime, which has led other countries to issue travel warnings, scandals, secret deals, and continued mismanagement and failures.  Their four and a half years have been full of empty rhetoric and broken promises, and the Bahamian people are sick and tired of it.”

“The embattled Prime Minister must have been living in a bubble for these past four and half years, because they have been an unmitigated disaster for the Bahamian people.  We continue to encourage them to run on their failed record.  While the Prime Minister is trying to explain away the past four and a half years, maybe the Bahamian people will finally get answers to critical questions that the PLP have been ignoring for years. Like, where has the VAT money gone?  What are they hiding in their secret Baha Mar deal with their Chinese allies?  Why have they not fixed our failing school system?  How do they answer for the continuously high murder and crime rates for the past four consecutive years?  The Bahamian people deserve answers to these questions and it is our sincere hope that the embattled Prime Minister will finally deliver answers without any more of their empty rhetoric and broken promises that the Bahamian people have become so used to.”
 
“The FNM will continue to stand with the people and hold the PLP accountable for their failed record of the past four and a half years.  We will not rest until Bahamians get satisfactory answers to their questions and concerns, not more campaign spin.  With our ‘Change Team’ the FNM will finally return the Government to the people in just a few short months, making it ‘the People’s Time.’”
