Premier Congratulates Prime Minister Cameron
Today, Premier Michael Dunkley extended congratulations to British Prime Minister David Cameron following the Conservative Party’s majority win in yesterday’s UK Elections.
Premier Dunkley, who said he followed the UK elections “quite intently”, formally wrote to the British Prime Minister this morning offering his well wishes on behalf of the Government and the people of Bermuda.
In an excerpt from the letter, the Premier wrote: “I wish to extend congratulations on your victory. On behalf of the Government and people of Bermuda we are keen to continue our long standing relationship with the UK Government and engaging in our work on mutual priority interests.
“During your tenure as Prime Minister we have achieved great measures in upholding international corporate responsibility and have supported the UK’s efforts in achieving a global standard of tax and transparency…. We look forward to continuing our work and commitment in upholding international obligations of British principles.”
The Premier will have an opportunity to discuss the UK election outcome as well as other matters of mutual interest when he meets with fellow Overseas Territories Leaders at the next Joint Ministerial Council [JMC] meeting, being held in Bermuda this July.
I thank you for extending well wishes on behalf of the One Bermuda Alliance Government and the people of Bermuda that, “read from the same pages”.
I believe the 8 (so far) that “dislike” my comment are extremely sorry, sad S.O.Bs
Sad yes, but true .
So do you expect everyone to agree with you?
Amazing one way or the other, there are no comments from the opposition.
@ James: It’s absolutely amazing!
Oh Lord here we go.
“JMC” Gate.
Rum all around.
You better make that a double Terry
I am quite surprised that the BRIT’s did not vote for a left wing TAX AND SPEND Government.
There economy is growing and there unemployment is at 5.6%,the best in the whole of Europe and doing better than we are especially after all those years of the previous Administration.
