To all those who supported the dumping of someone else's rust bucket garbage in our beautiful waters right in the middle of a conch bed of which there is no more conch in the area as a result of this, well the rust bucket lime light has blown out!!
The Govt. of the Cayman Islands wasted too much money to dump more garbage in our country's water, as if we don't have one of the worlds worse garbage situations in our country and all now they can't get a resolution as to how to deal with it simply because not enough lard can be found to grease their palms. Which brings me to another delayed reason why passing the Environmental and Conservation Laws that's been sitting on the books for years and years collecting dust will continue to do so. Every politician has made campaign promise after promise to make this law real but alas everyone that has come to date have not had the balls to do a darn thing about it. I once had hope with Minister Mark Scotland (http://www.caymannewsservice.com/science-and-nature/2010/12/02/scotland-ignores-conservation-law-climate-speech) but I think he just doesn't have what it takes to pass this law. He promised us we would have it from June 2010, then he delayed it to September 2010, it's now March 2011, and we can't hear a word from his ministry or him about it. I suppose the honeymoon is over so he has forgotten about us out here trying to protect this beautiful country for our people, and the future of our children and his.

Then we now have amendments to the laws that will keep the people off the beach, if you don't own a piece of beach land God forbid if you should walk on a piece that's owned privately, you will be kicked, off or you will be arrested for trespassing. What happened to the Queen's right for the people to use the beach and pass freely 50ft from the water mark or vegetation whichever came first?? Keep taking away the rights UDP, keep taking them away, we know we are living in Communism, you just haven't made it to the public arena just yet and inform us.
So, getting back to this piece of garbage the Kittiwake, it now rests in our waters and you have to pay to snorkel or dive it and the 15 mins of fame is now over, but we are left with this piece of shit rusting and contaminating our beautiful sea.
Reasons why our Govt. is so balls-less about passing the Environment and Conservation laws, in addition to all the other reasons they have up their sleeve to royally fleece us, by not involving the public's input on these matters, and simply passing them in the house to suit their special interest groups and people's.
Yes, I am one disgruntled Caymanian who wishes we didn't have to rely on greedy investors, as our Govt. seems to think they are the only ones that will benefit us. But there are good investors out there whom would love to come to our shores and do good, not do bad first!!!
If you can't do good, don't do bad UDP Govt.
