My Morning Paper – July 03, 2017 – Good Money after Bad…….

It would now appear that the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) is accusing the Free National Movement (FNM) government of doing the same thing that it took them five years to do in office, although the FNM has only been in for forty days and of course the claims by their national chairman, makes no sense as usual and therefore cannot be quantified.

“Roberts blast FNM’s last 40 days” – The Nassau Guardian

Excerpt from this article; “Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) Chairman Bradley Roberts accused Prime Minister Dr. Hubert Minnis of backtracking on many of his campaign promises, raising unemployment and offering now new legislation since coming to office May 10th.

‘It has been 40 days since the FNM assumed office, and for a group who was critical of the PLP’s governance, it is inexcusable that the Minnis crew could not table one single bill in Parliament in 40 days and took a 10-week vacation break,’ Roberts said, referring to the House of Assembly’s adjournment until September 13.

‘No new crime-fighting strategies; no new immigration policies; no energy reform policies; no strategy for growing the economy and creating jobs.’

‘While many jobs must be created in this economy, the Minnis government is busy raising the unemployment rate; engaging in witch hunts to satisfy their rabid political base; and backtracking, walking back and back peddling.”

When the Progressive Liberal Party came to office in 2012 they came with a 100-day plan, in other words; as they may put it they got to work and ‘hit the ground running’ putting into effect all sorts of initiatives in such an unorganized fashion that eventfully they all failed or just were not beneficial to the people that they were intended for; they did this in 100 plus days and failed the people and there is no mention of the money that was lost but yet they, through their illustrious chairman would now charge that the Free National Movement has not forth a single initiative in the past forty days; and they say this with no shame about them but then I have said before that they do not know what shame is.

Now the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) party after admonishing the FNM for not putting forth a single initiative in the past forty days, have  gone back into their little corner and brought in foreign consultants to tell them where they went wrong in the last general election and I wonder if they are attempting to analyze the entire five years or just what they did wrong during the campaign season because they went wrong during both periods but the most important would be the entire five years, as this only makes sense and they really do not need foreigners to tell them where they went wrong.

Listening to the Senator Fred Mitchell tonight is a good place to begin as to where the Progressive Liberal Party went wrong and that is that they allowed persons like Mitchell to influence the campaign with his backward polices and backward thinking, as he has recently displayed since their lost.  To listen to Senator Mitchell and some others within the Progressive Liberal Party, the black Bahamian has voted against themselves and have allowed themselves to be ‘enslaved’ by ‘the white man’ again and only the PLP can save them. 

Yes, Senator Mitchell, this sort of thinking is why your party lost, and this is beside the fact that you refused to listen to the people when they spoke to you and your colleagues, only seeming to extend arrogance when asked to address certain issues, especially when they were not addressed properly and the public needed clarification.

This advice I give for free and you can tell the foreign consultants that they are not needed.

Throwing good money after bad.

The Progressive Liberal Party continues to fail for one reason, it is their nature.
