		<description><![CDATA[How far over budget did the Government go with the following projects, Berkley, TCD, Dame Lois Browne-Evans building, the docks in dockyard? And the list goes on. I won’t scream corruption!!!  But one needs to admit at the least that is bad management of public funds.  The excuse of a global recession is a farce. I will admit that it does have some impact but it’s not the reason we are in so much debt.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yet another think tank style forum to make our Leaders look like they are doing something, 2 years of the new &quot;Business Development &amp; Tourism&quot; Ministry and we are still throwing money into talking

I am curious, that group of professionals and permanent secretaries who nod yes and say these forums are a good idea, why dont you just tell the Ministers that it is time to implement the findings of the 15 previous Forums, Meetings, Summits? 

or is there a need for the professionals, permanent secretaries and ministers to give the impression they are all busy finiding a solution to growing bermuda&#039;s GDP.

this is really now completely tiring, all this talk

and when we approach you privately we get ignored, post on a blog we are destroying Bermuda

we give up!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Stop using the words &quot;global recession&quot; as an excuse all the time - it&#039;s a man-made Bermuda recession created by the dumb ass*s at the PLP!!! You know the amateur idiots who have put this Island $$ 1.5+ BILLION in DEBT over the last 10 years - while they continue to travel, have their own Gov&#039;t funded cars and ALL the other &quot;perks&quot; that the BDA tax payer is paying for!!!

Cox and the PLP hierarchy are taking Bermuda to the cleaners - just like E. Brown did for 4 years!!! Just how **BLIND** are all you PLP supporters???]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Islamic finance , sure . Maybe that will come with a cost . Are we willing to perhaps be a springboard for terrorist funding , will Hamilton be overrun with Turban headed ,arrogant people who refuse to engage and assimilate with Bermuda society ? Will our street&#039;s be filled with women covered from head to toe in all black ? Or is it that we just want to look after their money without them (Muslim&#039;s)having a physical presence .]]></description>
