Dear Editor,
I don't know if PLP MPs, along with their leader, are still shell shocked by the referendum results, but for them to suggest to spend $50 million for a new Parliament at this time is insulting, to say the least, to the Bahamian people.
While many Bahamians are out of work and struggle financially, PLP MPs seem more interested in spending public funds for sightseeing and building a comfortable workplace for themselves. At least they have clearly displayed what their priorities are.
Do they know how many police cars, how much hospital equipment and food stamps for the poor could be purchased with $50 million? Do they care? I think the answer is pretty obvious.
PLP MPs have also displayed their financial genius by suggesting that tourists be charged $5 to see our Parliament. Is it any wonder that our country is in the present financial mess?
