Comments on: Photos & Video: 2011 Labour Day Parade https://bernews.com/2011/09/photos-video-labour-day-parade/ Bermuda's #1 source for 24/7 breaking news, photos & videos Sun, 12 Apr 2026 17:32:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.7.5 By: Origin unknown https://bernews.com/2011/09/photos-video-labour-day-parade/#comment-72340 Wed, 07 Sep 2011 00:28:53 +0000 http://bernews.com/?p=83397#comment-72340 Enlighten me folks, why is the PLP flag being flown? Look, I understand the historical antecedents, but the global labor day is a celebration of the modern worker not a dull old nod to the 1970s etc, move on please. I still struggle why we celebrate this holiday (it’s not 1982 and we are Bermuda and not America), but regardless of all that it should not be a flag waving opportunity for the plop.

What is Bruvva Zane doing there? Certainly not ‘celebrating solidarity with the union’ because his company is staunchly and solidly non-unionised.

Still, a good photo op to make it look like he’s a solid union guy, even if he isn’t.

Paula’s outfit was very colourful and memorable.

The Regiment cannot perform in the parade due to budget constraints placed on them because of the Government, thus the Government does not have a band (PHC has a drum corps only)for its Labour Day celebrations – strange, huh?
