New Judge

There is a great debate going on about the courts in the United States, but no one seems to be paying attention to what is happening to our own courts. There are reports that the Prime Minister personally intervened to get one Judge appointed and then there is the swearing in of the sister of the Minister of Health Diane Stewart as a Judge last week. So, here’s the deal. When the PLP wins the Government, and tries to implement its policies, it would seem that the FNM has left a friendly bench in place for the likes of Fred Smith to wreak havoc on the rest of us for years.  It would be very interesting to do an analysis of the Bahamian bench and their political antecedents.  You will see why the PLP should be concerned.
