So now “the bell has been rung” and the people, according to the Royal Opposition, are set to vote the Free National Movement (FNM) government out of office.

There are two promises being made by this Davis led Progressive Liberal party (PLP) all by virtue of their relentless and irrational criticism of the governance of the Minnis led Free National Movement (FNM) government;

1. That they can grow or even stabilize the economy under the current economic conditions and
2. That they have a plan to not only contain the COVID-19 pandemic here in The Bahamas but eliminate it.

The leader of the opposition, Mr. Philip ‘Brave’ Davis has already proven, while being the deputy leader of a FAILED PLP government, that he has no new ideas to grow the economy and as is very evident in the PLP’s ‘new’ economic plan.  We are also very mindful of the fact that he was a part of the very same government that saw five years of negative economic growth in much better economic times than we are presently experiencing, so it is very disingenuous when he criticizes this government for a downturn in the economy which is actually affecting most of the world due to a worldwide pandemic.

I wonder which part of “worldwide” skips his comprehension.

Also the second promise is that can do that what every other country is struggling to do at this very moment.  He is actually promising to end the ‘hold’ that the pandemic has on every aspect of our lives, by ending it, yes; the pandemic.

So, these are two very important thing to consider as you look to display your “rage and anger’” against this current administration.

“Davis: First step toward a better day – The Nassau Guardian

Excerpt from this article; “Although he called on Prime Minister Dr. Hubert Minnis on Wednesday to stop playing games and ring the election bell, Progressive Liberal party (PLP) Leader Philip Brave Davis yesterday accused Minnis of being more concerned with politics than saving lives, after the prime minister announced the general election will be held on September 16.

We are in the middle of a raging pandemic, a surging variant of COVID attacking the people in such a vicious manner.  One would have to ask themselves whether we are more concerned about politics than saving lives.  That having been said, the bell has rung and that is the first step to a better day.’ Davis said.

He said the PLP is prepared for the election and the party will be adhering to strict COVID mitigation measures while campaigning.

‘We should be thinking about saving lives.’ Davis said.”

I wonder if he will be sticking to the same “strict COVID mitigation measures” that he was observing when he himself contracted COVID-19, but I tend to digress. #petty

The leader of the Progressive Liberal party (PLP) speaks in a very strange “fork-tongued” language that it seems that only those that he has “anointed” can understand.  I say this because he, the leader of the opposition, asked for the “bell to be rung” and is not seeking to criticize the prime minister for doing just that.

I believe that the leader of the opposition does not have a plan to fulfill these promises which he has made.

I believe that the leader of the opposition has become so comfortable with being the opposition and opposing, he is now caught like a “deer in the headlights” because he may now be called upon to actually preform and fulfill his promises to the people.

I believe that the leader of the opposition knows that due to his past record a politician, he is too inept and incompetent to actually lead The Commonwealth of The Bahamas

If he knows all of this about himself, why should we trust him?

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

There is a saying; “Never make a move from a place of fear and desperation. We tend to make bad decisions in these cases”, well Mr. Philip ‘Brave’ Davis blaming the Free National Movement (FNM) government for his failures to his constituents is a prime example of this.

“Davis: State of Cat Island is FNM fault” – The Nassau Guardian

Excerpt from this article; “Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) Leader Philip Brave Davis, who is MP for Cat Island, Rum Cay and San Salvador, said the poor state of his constituency is the fault of the Minnis administration and the Free National Movement (FNM).

Davis who served as deputy prime minister and minister of works under the Christie administration said that has done what he could for his constituency.

“Sadly, this government abandoned those islands.

‘The infrastructure is in quite a deteriorating state and continues to deteriorate.

‘My efforts using the $100,000 per annum that they were giving me is what I have been using to keep that of infrastructure in what I call a useable and workable condition as I could have  and as those funds would have allowed me to.

“But sadly, the state of Cat Island, Rum Cay and San Salvador as it is today is a direct result of the abandonment and neglect by this government to those islands.”

When you read some of the stuff that Davis says or writes it makes one wonder about his mental health.

Now, before we get too far ahead of ourselves and commit the leader of the opposition, because it could be the pressure that finally got to him or just the heat, let’s look at this logically.

First, remember, Mr. Davis has been the representative for Cat Island, San Salvador and Rum Cay for the past twenty years.  Fifteen of those years the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP] was the government  and at least five of those years he [Mr. Davis] served as the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Works, so when he says “……he has done what he could for his constituency”, one must look at him with great wonderment.

There are several things being suggested here in this article by the representative for Cat Island, San Salvador and Rum Cay; one of them being that the current state of deterioration of the Cat Island, San Salvador and Rum Cay constituency all began within the last four years; that the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) under the leadership of the Hon. Perry Christie aided in the “abandonment” of his consistency and that Mr. Davis is new to politics with this being his first term serving as an elected official, as he speaks to his “efforts” in  using the $100,000 per annum allowance.

We know all of these suggestions to be false and Mr. Davis only seeks to now find a way to be excused and even gain sympathy for his gross neglect and failures as these neglects and failures are constantly being exposed.

The Progressive Liberal Party fails for one reason, it is their nature.

A political ad on social media sponsored by the opposition Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) states as fact; “Hiding behind the Emergency Orders Minnis and his FNM have funneled millions to undisclosed private accounts.” It then goes on to give a list of ways in which they claimed that Prime Minister Dr. Hubert Minnis and the Free National Movement (FNM) used the Emergency Orders to funnel these fund to these undisclosed private accounts but it ends with the statement; “This this FNM’s get rich quick pandemic.  To date there has been no evidence produced by the opposition PLP to substantiate these allegations, nothing beside speculation, supposition and propaganda to prove these libelous lies.

It would appear that speculation, supposition and propaganda have become the PLP’s new ‘truth”, so whatever you hear them say;”To tell the truth”, get ready for a full load.

While putting this ad together, the leader of the opposition was also writing to the Utilities Regulations and Competition Authority (URCA) complaining to have the Free National Movement (FNM) from running its own political ad on Cable Bahamas, which they claimed “slandered and defamed” the  leader of the opposition.

“URCA ISSUES INTERIM ORDER FOR CABLE BAHAMAS TO STOP AD AGAINST DAVIS” – The Nassau Guardian. – 20, July 2021

Excerpt from this article; “The Utilities Regulations and Competition Authority (URCA) has ordered Cable Bahamas to ‘cease and desist’ from broadcasting a political ad featuring Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) Leader Philip Brave Davis until further notice.

According to the interim order, which was signed by URCA CEO Carlton Smith on July 22, Davis issued a complaint to URCA against Cable Bahamas alledging that the ad which was ‘slanderous defames’ him was broadcast on multiple Cable TV channels since July 12.

In the 30-second video, Davis is criticized about his previous term in office and charged that ‘nothing has changed’ and that he has ‘no new ideas’.

The ad further states that the PLP’s economic plan was ‘slammed by the media’ with key points being largely recycled, unfulfilled promises.”

Davis complained that Cable Bahamas ‘failed and or refused to ‘clearly identify the as a political ad or political broadcast on behalf of a specific candidate, political party, or  other person or entity, and clearly indicate that a candidate or party authorized or paid for the political ad “

The Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) under the leadership of Philip ‘Brave’ Davis continues to show that they are nothing more than duplicitous, hypocritical cowards, so no the ad is correct on that aspect, that “nothing has changed” but this is the second complaint by the Davis led Progressive Liberal Party (PLP), the first being a complaint to the social media page Facebook, in an attempt to silence his critics.

The Brave led Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) must put on their ‘big boy pants’ and realize that if you fire a political shot  one just may be fired back.  How can you fire off a political ad on social media, laced with unsubstantiated allegations but then complain to URCA when ‘rapid fire’ is returned on Cable Bahamas?

Is it because you have exhausted your campaign funds due to poor political gamesmanship and cannot afford to run ads on Cable Bahamas?

Is this the party and two-faced way in which a Brave led PLP government will operate when they are criticized?

The PLP fails for one reason, it is their nature.
