Perhaps Justice needs to be reminded that he was brought out when the PLP was in Government. And as for the silly suggestion that the OBA have granted him status and the right to vote this is a complete and utter fabrication. Mr Mirfield no longer resides in Bermuda and in no way would he qualify for Bermudian status. But you would have to admit that making such facile allegations helps to stir up the pot!

Mr. Wright was born and raised in the UK where he served in the Police for 6 years before coming to Bermuda. I believe he has served in the Bermuda Police for the past 29 years, giving him 35 years Police experience. He also holds a Masters degree and is a Fellow of the Chartered Management Institute. He is also a Bermudian by status. You probably don’t want to know what qualifies him for the position of Deputy Commissioner but perhaps you can let us know why you seem to believe that he should not hold the rank of Deputy Commissioner if he was not born in Bermuda.

Did you ask the same question when George Jackson was promoted to the rank of Commissioner of Police, or when Michael Jackman was promoted to the rank of Deputy Commissioner? Can you advise us whether you think persons with status but not actually born here should be only be allowed to reach a certain rank. And what would it be? Sergeant? Inspector? Chief Inspector? Superintendent?

The truth is always true and is always met with hatred. You are responsible for the GREAT universal divide.

Bermuda is an extremely color conscious place–no escape, and we only see in Black and white. The sad truth is that the historical unsavoury relationship between whites and Blacks is still intact, and Blacks are not responsible for its initiation (introduction) and maintenance (perpetuation).

The truth is always true!
