While I am no fan of the PLP I do feel that we should wait for the break down of costs before we start saying it’s a waste of money. This could be a good networking trip or it might not got to wait and see.

If the test of being Bermudian comes only by reflexively falling into lockstep behind the leader whenever the Party flag is waved, then what we have is a formula for dictatorship, – not democracy… But the Bermudian way is to accept unthinkingly the doings of government officials.

It’s interesting to note that you are in fact actually aware of what it costs. You know why? The OBA reported the figure.

How much have the PLP spent on trips since winning in July?

It explains why we don’t hear from the invisible Premier. We’re paying for him and Simmons to go on a junket.

And a prayer breakfast? Really? FFS.

The OBA had a website where you could see travel expenses and they were far far lower than under the PLP before and now the PLP have taken down that website so we don’t know what they’re spending.

So much for transparency.

Burt wanted this job and better be prepared for tough questions about this and other things. How did this benefit Bermudians? This group have very little that they could promise. Bermudians were lead to believe that a plp government would do better but this appears to be nothing more than two egos getting a good rub on our tax dollar. That is why we need to hold them accountable.

Building strong International relations is good, but where does the CBCF fit in? Do they represent IB firms? No they’re politicians, spending other peoples’ money to try and look good. No help to Bermuda’s kids or in buying buses.

Bro I’m not oba or plp. …the point you are missing is that just a few months ago the PLP accused the oba of too many trips…and now we have them taking trips which supposed to help on the island socially? I call bs…
This is not helping with Bermudas real problems and looks like a pointless photoshoot

And when Richards did that you screamed about the waste of money. The PLP whined about the waste of money.
How is this any different?

If PLP is wasting money, what did the other party do…oh right outright burned it….people take a break and find something positive to say, and just know that trips are a necessity in politics….Naïve, negative, bored people make ignorant comments.

Wasted money is the 3 year plus case against Dr B oh and less not talk about the hospital in Boston that might cost us more.

We could have use the extra money for de Buses but the OBA showed Bermuda that they didn’t care about the kids or listen to the PEOPLE!!!!!!!

Wasted money was when OBA Sports minister Sylvan Richards visited Brazil for the Olympics at a cost of more than $30,000 of taxpayer’s money.

The UBP is so desperate after a 12 seat loss to PLP/BIU 24 seat win you make this guy Deputy OBA Leader. The old Guard in the oba/UBP must be drinking all de rum now.

OMG !!!!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

What benefit did Bermuda get out of this junket and what’s the cost to the taxpayers? We should have access to this kind of information!

“Building strong international relations for the benefit of Bermuda and it’s future.”

too bad this lot went…if anything, they’ll destroy Bermuda even more than they did the last time.
