Blue Horizon Hotel

The average Barbadian is blissfully unaware about what goes on in the Barbados business underworld. Deals are made in smoke-filled rooms and the ordinary Barbadian is left to emit sounds of fury on the talk shows and on social media. How was Vision Development incorporated in the nick of time to land a deal to develop the Hyatt hotel? How come government was 100% receptive to Mark Maloney when he decided to import cement to force prices down in Barbados and he was able to secure the contentious site on Port Authority lands? Is it a coincidence this matter has been mired in legal rigmarole? How much foreign exchange is being spent anyway to import Rock Hard cement? How come Mark Maloney was able to secure a sweet heart deal with the government to plant the houses at Coverley? If BU is correct there was a plan to develop an area in Bushy Park similar to Coverley.

The latest question BU is asking.
Has the Blue Horizon hotel, the GEMS property been sold to Bjorn Bjerkham and Mark Maloney for 5 million dollars?
By our calculations this computes to less than $5,000 per room. The last valuation bandied about in public was 17 million dollars. The enduring legacy of the Stuart government will be the shroud of secrecy and more than a hint of corruption attached to transactions.
Will somebody SHOUT GROTTO and the use of the Housing Industrial Fund to pay Maloney?

    The ignorance of these people.MBAPE is no university qualification as in a first or post graduate degree.The stupidity of LEC must be treated in the same fashion.JA’s only show their shallowness when they quote these as tertiary qualifications.Another example of all pappy show designed to fool stupid Dems.All show,no substance hence why Barbados in ducks guts.Effin lackeys and pirates have taken over the ship of state.Errol Barrow and Tom Adams must be wondering HOW DID WE GET HERE?

    Here the pussy Glyne Murray arguing with Miss P.She is saying the PM should have addressed the country yesterday.Murray sez to Miss P, a Canadian National that he didn’t think the PM of Canada would be expected to address the Nation for every snow storm.What the shallow,stumbling would be public speaker removed from the equation was the important fact that Barbados was on LOCK DOWN.It was no ordinary evening.Folk were told to get home,businesses were told to close,buses were removed from the roads…and the citizens were told not to venture out before the ALL CLEAR was given…it was no walk in the park decision.

    Neither EWB or Tom were paragons of virtue,stated by someone who knew them outside of politics.

    …EWB’s major failing was taking over a party and using it to rule Bim as opposed to creating an institution with a solid foundation and a succession plan in place for the future.

    ….Tom took over a country that was to become his personal fiefdom and to the day of his death he was feared by the majority of Bimmers.

    Glyne Murray is a brass bowl clown by any standards. He is beginning to remind Bushie of Alvin… Cawmere was not a bad school, …but some shiite happen in between hear….?!

    He could have so easily stayed off the air …and let us all continue to believe that he had some common sense….

    His stammering, ‘hymming and hawing’, stuttering, repetition, and swallowing of words (and ideas) is distracting, unprofessional, irritating ….and then he keeps talking over the callers with his juvenile ideas…

    Shiite man!!
    He makes Peter Wickham look good…. but Bushie has long argued that this was his role when he was hired… and to kowtow to Ellis…

    But he was right to cut off Baffy’s friend today (when he questioned how Froon can hire a personal friend to ‘defend him’ on a government matter)….. whose ass should be here on BU, where ideas can be properly explored – rather than sucking up to VOB’s hosts for a few shiite minutes of crosstalk.

    Barbados – the land where mediocrity is king….
    Bushie would not be surprised if angela works at VOB as an ‘Analyst’ or some such shiite…

    Today’s debate about whether Stuart should have addressed the country last evening is interesting because Glyne Murray missed the point. Stuart is a silent leader and it is in this context Bajans will use every opportunity to ask him to speak. In other words the call for Stuart to open his mouth a al Gonzalves is symptomatic of the fact people want to hear him!

    Bjerkham for president! He rocks the island more than any hurricane before.

    His title shall be: His Excellency, Borg Jerkham, President for Life, Bjorn Jerkham, VC, BMW, MB, Lord of All the Beasts of the Earth and Fishes of the Seas and Conqueror of the British Empire in the Caribbean in General and Barbados in Particular, uncrowned King of Scotland District.

    @ David,

    It must be noted. The people who actually mattered were on VOB last night and in the news today.

    The head of the DEM and Joy Ann Haig from the BWA and others who were ” wide awake “.

    How is it even conceivable to be the elected LEADER of a country that is about to undergo a NATIONAL shutdown, ..bus service suspended, …businesses closed,…emergency services on call, …its people are brass bowls ….. and not say one shiite??!!

    Especially when the last few ‘shutdown’ were as controversial as hell?

    Shiite man, even if a primary school is to be closed early the damn principal would call everyone together for 5 minutes to put them on the same page, and reassure them that everything is under control.

    This man is beyond jackass….
