Of all the elections I have witnessed this one was the longest. Not to receive the final result until the following morning at 8:45am with an electoral vote of less than 15,000 persons to count is just not good enough.
It is a shame that the three senior members of the electoral office had to end [...]
This is a very difficult choice as listening to the candidates, reading the manifestos or plan are, as Lewis Carroll commented, all “much of a muchness”.
There is no one person from either party, or coalition independents or ‘true’ independents, who has pressed that ‘button’ to make me say “yes”, “yes” and again “YES!! That is [...]
When our ex-premier McKeeva Bush receives bad publicity (that seems to be flowing well at this moment) he hits back with cries of plots by the Governor, or the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, or the Commissioner of Police, or a combination of all three.
And we mustn’t forget the past Auditor General, who Bush was so [...]
The CoalitionforCayman (C4C) have come under fire and some ridicule from their political opponents, namely Cayman’s two parties, The Progressives (PPM) and the United Democratic Party (UDP) for not producing an election manifesto.
The Progressives hit out at the C4C yesterday (15) saying, “…the country is still wondering what the C4C stands for and what is [...]
The last 24 hours has been interesting. I will start with the very last first.
This morning, after my two Editorials on the subject of why don’t the independents tell us whom they would not support if it came to an alliance formation government, iNews Cayman received a Press release from the C4C version of the [...]
A man has been arrested and is currently detained in police custody after an early morning raid on a house in East End.
About 5.45 am today (Wednesday, 15 May) officers searched a house in John McLean Drive, East End. During the search a flare gun, mask and bayonet were seized.
A 47-year-old man was arrested on [...]
I can still remember the excitement when the Coalition for Cayman (C4C) came on the scene last year at the end of November when well over a thousand of us assembled in the AL Thompson’s parking lot.
We wanted a change from the appalling scenes and rhetoric coming from our elected members of the Legislative Assembly [...]
The Editor Speaks: The Value for Money DART/NRA isn’t quite as good as it seemed
I am not surprised the Dart Realty Cayman Ltd (DRCL)/National Roads Authority (NRA) deal isn’t the superlative deal we had been led to believe by ex- premier Mckeeva Bush.
I am not surprised not only because what Bush has said in the [...]
DART has come in for almost merciless criticism and downright hatred from politicians, would be ones, activists, groups of concerned citizens and from all quarters of Cayman’s community.
I expect he is praying hard that the United Democratic Party (UDP) will be re-elected in a few weeks time with Captain. McKeeva Bush at the helm to [...]
Further to a previous Editorial where I bemoaned the Coalition for Cayman (C4C) “independent” candidates would not openly say whom they would align themselves with if there were a split vote in Cayman’s General Election, the two independents in North Side and East End have made it very clear.
