The fact there are those in the community who turn a blind eye to this or, even worse, condone such action (i.e. it’s our turn now) is ridiculous, short sighted and selfish. We are each more than just a cog in the wheel.

How much more evidence do you people need to see that you’ve got incompetents running this island?

And now they’ve replaced the former Premier with a smiling, well-mannered snake in the grass who signed off on all the misspending, was guaranteed the Premiership well before she took over, and decides to hold onto the Finance Ministry, likely to cover her own tracks, than hand off the Ministry to Terry Lister who is far more intelligent in matters of finances and economy.

The PLP have run a social agenda of trying to balance the economic scales between white and blacks, and instead have evolved in an elitist party where a small number of Blacks are living like Kings and ‘getting theirs’ ,while the rest struggle to pay mortgage, rent, send their children to inferior public schools, and shoot at each other every weekend. Despite the PLP’s attempts to make this about the emancipation of Black Bermudians, the reality is that Black Bermuda is still well behind Whites and Portuguese economically and socially. Don’t let the fact that we have a ‘Black’ Government, or you see a few well dressed Black men and women walking down Front Street, to be any indication that the Black community has ‘arrived’. You’ve got Blacks shooting each other, and calling each other house n##gers if you oppose the PLP. Does anyone think the Black community is further ahead than in 1998? If you do, I have an ocean in the Atlantic to sell you.

To say that a return to the UBP is not an option is another way of saying you’ll continue to vote in the PLP no matter how poor they perform. Which gives them no incentive to be either accountable or competent. THERE is the problem in this community.

LOL

LOL please and not I do not suppor a party due to any influences out side of will it benifit Bermuda so far their all jokers but the PLP have had their turn 4.5 billion in debt blame who you want the facts are the facts.

To the teacher above from Dellwood, I salute your efforts. You are obviously passionate about what you do, and that is fantastic. You’re right, there are children who will fall through the cracks mostly because of unsupportive families, but while we will never bat a 100% average, i believe that we can collectively do better than we are doing now in educating Bermuda’s future.

How else do you end up with the recent Bush as President or Palin influencing elections or Doc doing his thing or Sir Henry, David etc etc making huge , massive profits from being on the inside?

The PLP have failed miserably and hopefullly this Premier will somehow right the ship, however make no mistake, the UBP were not without huge, significant faults and many became very, very wealthy as a result of being well positioned politically.

The PLP under the good doctor has been awful and as a PLP supporter there is no excuse for the blatant abuses carried out over the past few years. Having said that, returning to what was is not an option for me and many others and there lies the real problem that we face in this community.

Young man grow up. I trust that your comment is purely an emotional response and that even though the UBP practiced much of the same,ie, some for you, most for me politics, you are sensible enough to see the very dangerous road that this government is making us traverse..

There is a very,very thin line between racism and elitism..The little guy always but always gets crushed…

In short, most politicians learn their craft at the alter of greed and avarice.. This is time honoured and absolutely runs rampant in all quarters of the world.

You’ll get it.

LOL casper has left the building…………….

I don’t think anyone has ever said that…

How about this one? $15,000 per month office rental in Washington DC since September 2009 that is still vacant.

LOL
