Sometimes all you can are able to do is sit back and listen to some of the nonsense that a person would approach you with, that they believe is logical and think to yourself what planet is this person from?
“Minnis: DNA wanted 16 seats – FNM leader makes revelation as party ratifies final five” – The Nassau Guardian
Excerpt from this article; “Free National Movement (FNM) Leader Dr. Hubert Minnis revealed last night that Democratic National Alliance (DNA) Leader Branville McCartney made a number of ‘extreme’ and unreasonable’ requests when the opposition parties met to a possible union to strengthen their chances of removing the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) from government.
Minnis was addressing the crowd at the FNM headquarters on Mackey Street after he was ratified for Killarney.
The party also ratified four other candidates; Former Deputy Prime Minister Brent Symonette for St. Anne’s; Pakesia Parker for West End and Bimini; Shanendon Cartwright for St. Barnabas and Vaughn Miller for Golden Isles.

Minnis told supporters, ‘Bran wanted 16 seats.’
‘The seats he wanted were as follows: He wanted Bamboo Town; he wanted Seabreeze; he wanted Garden Hills; he wanted Southern Shores; he wanted Marathon; he wanted Elizabeth; He wanted Pinewood; he wanted Fox Hill; he wanted Golden Gates; he wanted North and South Abaco; he wanted Marco City; he wanted Yamacraw and if there was a St. Thomas Moore, he wanted that too.’
“….You see, besides taking the best from the FNM, he wanted an agreement that if the DNA got the most seats then the DNA would decide who is prime minister and the deputy prime minister.”
Okay Mr. McCartney; would you care to have a kidney or lung with that? I secretly believe that The Leader of the Democratic National Alliance (DNA) has lost his mind, but then that it another story for another day but today’s question is why would he approach the Free National Movement (FNM) with just a request and think that is would be seriously considered?
Since the revelation, Mr. McCartney and others from his party have come out in defense of the Leader of the DNA saying that Mr. McCartney never made such a request and that Dr. Minnis is lying but then we still have his odd relationship with Loretta Butler-Turner to show us that maybe Mr. McCartney cannot be trusted, indeed the man is beginning to show his true colors.

There are very few people, probably only Democratic National Alliance supporters that actually believe him [Branville McCartney] when he says that he and Ms. Butler-Turner had no sort of arrangement of any sort in terms of a coalition of sorts when she made him leader of opposition business in the Senate, no matter how unstable you may think that she is but yet he would like for us to believe this and now he comes back after being exposed in this latest escapade to say that the Leader of the Free National Movement is a lair.
Far be it from me to call anyone a lair…but……..
