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.

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.

Letter to Financial Times from Jeffrey D. Sachs, Director, The Earth Institute, Columbia University, New York, NY, US, says Cayman is “playing with fire”
May 7 2013
Sir, I wonder whether the Cayman Islands leadership knows that it is playing with fire (“Great progress by Cayman Islands”, Letters, May 2). It writes that everything is under control, [...]
