You make a good point. CF the treatment of the Windrush generation in the UK. Similarly, in Bermuda, 1000s of workers who came here to contribute to the economy and in very real, direct ways, help with education, health care, business and law enforcement are ostracised and made to feel like second class citizens. Often, holding the mirror up to your own behaviours makes for uncomfortable viewing.

Correct me if I forgot something, you want the governor to apologise for the mistreatment of foreign workers from the 1900′s while your party runs on mistreating foreign workers today?

The Progressive Labour Party (PLP) seems to mirror south Africa’s black post apartheid political party, African National Congress (ANC)

Perhaps at the same time HE The Governor can see his way clear to pardoning every young person ever caught width a spliffy over the last fifty years. This simple magnanimous gesture would go a long way towards apologizing for the petty and quite often not so petty Fascist UBP Police state that the Crown colluded in perpetuating to 1998.

If we do thats our problem, that does’nt negate the fact that its not owed.
Our Forefathers gave their lives and your sarcastic steriotypic opinion dont mean a hill of beans to us who keep the legacy of justice alive for our ancestors who helped make some wealthy today through inheritance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why bother with reparations? All you bies would do is give it all back to “the man” anyway.

“A review of the case indicates that the whole affair was laced with shocking bias,” the Premier said”

I was not aware that our Premier was a lawyer. My regard for him has improved
