Lets not discuss the actual issue at hand.

Lets blame the PLP, its always their fault.

Looks like thats working great for us now.

Why should those under his command be fired?

Sack the guy at the top and the next giy isnt going to allow the same mistakes to cost him his job

Everything the former PLP MP’s touched.

Well you know the rest.

And we all know the rest as well. We have no money and we are up to our neck in debt.

No roundabout was necessary from the beginning ONLY STOP SIGNS. Lost of Land, Park, Communting Time and materials. I am sure the STOP SIGN now being used now will create even more frustration until this roundabout is dumped onto the public. Drove by there today and wondered what they were thinking – It is SHAMEFUL !!! Drive by and make the observation for yourself.

How dumb must the engineers be to demolish and ruin a park, create traffic confusion, take Government House land and then make the roads too narrow that you can not drive comforably on the road. Forbid you have a bus, truck or Big Mach container. A 90 degree turn to get onto Langton Hill – what pure nonsense and rubbish. My 4 year old daughter could do better than that with her LEGO set.

A huge waste of our taxpaying dollars for someone to put this on their CV of accomplishments. Works and Engineering please clean house and get some competent staff or we will be faced with more of the same crap.

INCOMPETENCE from the engineers, the design team and the overseers and they all should be FIRED. Wasting taxpayers dollars a day at a time when we CAN NOT AFFORD IT.

Mr Minister, Stop this debacle before it goes any further and use some commonsense. The Team doing this job have no idea what they are doing. Period !

MR. CIVIL ENGINEER TAKE THE HARD HAT OFF and FIND ANOTHER TRADE. YOU ARE NOT EQUIPPED TO BE IN THIS TRADE and IF YOU HAVE COME ON CONTRACT – IT’S TIME TO GO BACK HOME, and IF YOU ARE A BERMUDA RESIDENT – THIS PROFESSION IS NOT SUITED FOR YOU SO FIND ALTERNATIVE EMPLOYMENT. YOU ARE COSTING US EVERY DAY THAT BERMUDA GOVERNMENT LEAVES YOU ON THE JOB.

SOMEBODY’S HEAD NEEDS TO ROLL. THIS IS MY VOTE OF NO CONFIDENCE. ONLY IN BERMUDA CAN YOU GET AWAY WITH THIS B#llSH!T.

PUT YOUR TOOLS DOWN, CLEAR OUT YOUR DESK because YOU ARE FIRED !!!

Find one W&E project that finished on time, on budget and is an example of good work in last 30 years (UBP, PLP and OBA) and I will be shocked. These men have the skills, they have the tools …but they are human. If they are not encouraged to work , they won’t! I don’t blame them. W&E have a management team, politicians on both sides of the table, drive by an see these guys Watching & Earning, and the union leaders look the other way too.

If this is the kind of work (or lack of) that we can expect when these projects go on, can you image what doesn’t go on when we can’t see.

The sidewalk alone that runs along the park took almost a year, the simple wall that ran along government house took almost another year. There is nothing technical or difficult about building a side walk and wall. A private company (even if owned by those same W&E would have taken half the time and cost far less. Anyone that has driven past this project on a daily basis knows that we the public are getting screwed. I blame the W&E management, the union, the government and the opposition for letting this happen. You have all “looked the other way” while we got screwed!

They then started to unload the trailer. You will never guess what were the first pieces of equipment they pulled out

Wait for it…….!!!!

4 deck chairs and two coolers

I kid you not!

Have a great Valentine’s Day!

There is a little difference between this project taking too long and costing too much and letting private entities make millions on cost overrun projects, I’m not sure if some actually don’t understand the difference or choose to play ignorant and uninformed.

Rant complete. Have a great Valentine’s Day. Don’t bother responding with a difference of opinion as I’m off to go wait in those traffic lights again.

It’s an operational project

It begs questions like: Why are we doing this? How valuable is this relative to other important projects – like cleaning up our Railway Trail, building quality Toilets and Showers in our Parks with Beaches, Cleaning up our Raw Sewage Discharge into our Sea and washing up regularly on our Public Beaches?

More transparency would aid us all – what is the process for these decisions, who is making these decisions, approving the funding and staying on top of the implementation and spending?

How can the local community participate in these decisions and not simply be observers to badly managed and very poorly communicated projects?

Think Shelly Bay Beach, Botanical Gardens, and Black Watch Pass – the patterns emerging are not a compliment to political leadership or community engagement.

Exhibit D would the the South Road wall at the Paget Traffic Lights.

Exhibit E would be the paving debacle on South Road Devonshire between Devonshire Bay and Collectors Hill.

I am sure we could run through the alphabet with not too much trouble!

Do you know the difference between a million and a billion when asked to write it down in numerical form ?

Please can those at the CIVIL Service be named, shamed and sacked.

Thanks for that. I was wondering when someone would mention the Great Wall of Warwick. Seems that wall took a 1000 days and a 1000 men to build is. What say you PLP?

Minister Cannonair my well be the Minister of W&E but where is the responsibility and accountability of the W&E management and staff. Do they take any heat for the length and costs of this project? I say it starts and ends with them.

Exhibit B would be the great never ending wall of Warwick

Cannoniers mumblings & bumblings, if quotes are correct, don’t sound very reassuring at all. Like he is affraid to call out W&E people, from the top down on gross inefficiencies, but the wheels came off the tracks long ago & not much effort was made to get them back on track.

Many people need to answer for this fiasco, not just the current Minister.

Both parties are a joke.
