Try paying redundancy on 85 staff at 6$months pay each. Hence the bankruptcy plus there are 7000 less people on the island now to buy the groceries wonder what made them all leave Frankie? May be our user friendly Enviroment??

OBA signs down all over, replaced with PLP signs. How childish! Such an organized effort took direction from on high.

The PLP must really be running scared. Unbelievable how juvenile they can be. But then…thinking of some of the other antics over the last 14 years, not so surprising at all.

If members from the PLP and the BIU spent less time on talk shows – they might get more done!

Social issues didn’t matter???? Would you say the PLP improved social issues??? You are desperate to find something negative to say. Is serious crime down? Serious crime is liked to poor social issues!

THe books didnt matter??? 600 million in unaccounted fpoor money!!!!! Should we even talk about the BIU ? And don’t deny it – BIU = PLP.

By: Back to Life, Back to Reality

Back to Life, Back to Reality — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 00:35:56 +0000

Yes, it got worse when te PLP got, in…but never got better!!! Are their signs of improvement – nope!

So even if things do not improve for awhile, I would much rather know we have a chance at a brighter future someday – than not at all.

Because we believe he can do a better job as a leader – even with less experience!

Look – I actaully like Paula Cox and believe she inherited a screwed up situation from the DrB crew before her. I trust her, think she has great morals, and represents us well publically.

However, would I vote for her? No! Why , because she hasn’t been an effective LEADER. Could she be, yes! However, with the BIU, the Burchs Furberts, Commisiogns, Browns and crew telling her what to do, she hasn’t lead us anywhere.

Exactly Frank – people are not upset at what they see., but rather we often see two sets of rules. The ones that the PLP runs by and the set of rules the rest of Bermuda must abide by.

It didn’t occur to you to leave a flyer to let us know. I met both OBA and PLP but my neighbours were not home and they both left a pamphlet.

I agree it will get worse even if the PLP get in. The difference is, if the OBA get in we would hope that the facts come to light and we get an honest understanding of where we are financially… and then hopefully put steps in place to reverse the damage.

If the Person in the Police force had years of management and business experience leading senior people then I would not have a problem with it.

Huh, I would feel very done in by if I voted for the OBA with craig as the leader and then they did not vote him in. Personally I think he will make a fine leader and as long as he has the support of people Like Bob and Michael, Jon etc i think he might be a great leader of a potentially great team. The PLP are not a team, they were in 1998 and then the deceit happened. Too bad I had such high hopes…

Opps,
And you have not provided evidence agaist the claim and by PLP standards that would make the statement a fact…

PLP has provided no eveidence on where missing money has gone, where the new hotels are, what they are actually going to do, why the AG was put on leave…

I got a PLP flyer in my mail box, I was 30′ from it at the time and it wasn’t even Vance. They stopped long enough to put the flyer in and left, didn’t even try to look or talk to me. Apparently they aren’t interested in my vote.

Unfortunately I was on my way out when Trevor stopped by, and he gave me his contacts to schedule a visit.

You don’t need political experience to run a country like Bermuda, you need business and economic sense. On the other hand, we have a construction boss in charge of health!?? make any sense. In fact name 1 government minister who has qualifications and or professional experience in the remits they are in charge of?? None! not even the minister of finance, Paula is a lawyer not a finance person. And wow does that show!

Mr. Furbert was by himself this morning just past the entrance to the Shelly Bay Beach on the corner going east before the 24 hr Gym surrounded by the pLP signs. Bet he didn’t realize how many people have died and been injured on that same corner where he was distracting people.

I agree with you, its not like the OBA has a magical stick and everything going to change.Its not going to happen. The only change they will have, it was get worse. It always get worse before it gets better. Remember that.

Hmmm… Government asked its supporters to put headlights on today! Haven’t seen ANY head lights on all day…Government spinners should have asked for headlights on after 8pm and then claimed a ton of support! Afraid no one seems to be shinning their lights for this Government…hope for change on Monday and OBA can shine some light on things!

What do you think of the use of a blind trust to construct the taxpayer funded courthouse/police station building on Victoria Street? Or the fact that D. Burgess gave the lighting contract to one of his family members, which then required the lights to be taken out due to health issues?

Or what about the fact that Pastor Bean paid himself consultancy fees from the BLDC while acting as a director and also mandated that a BLDC painting contract be awarded to the Chairman’s relative (Saunders) after the fact that it was already granted to another company?

Shall we even bother getting into the numerous contract shenanigans that occurred under the previous Premier’s reign? Or we can talk about Berkeley?

Social issues you say? I remember full employment and actual underemployment in ’98. There were also numerous housing projects built under the previous Government (i.e. Rockaway, Ducks Puddle, Happy Valley Seniors housing, Boaz Island etc). Social assistance was also readily available for people feeling the pinch. I am not too sure that anyone should congratulate the PLP for increasing the numbers of people on welfare.
