The policies the PLP is using for this initiative are the ones that they criticised as being anti-Bermudian and the like. And supporters such as yourself jumped up and down and repeated the lie.

Now the PLP is using them you now praise them as being pro-Bermudian.

The OBA noted many times the need to bring in extra people and you and your crew jumped and down and cried anti-Bermudian or illegally shut down our duly elected Parliament due to your ingrained hatred of foreigners or anybody that differs really. And now you are saying we need foreigners!!

Like I said you lot are nothing but a bunch of rank hypocrites.

So it seems like you are the one that needs to pay attention, sheep.

If the OBA had introduced something of this nature, there would be marches on Parliament. To suggest a “masterful touch” is stupid, particularly as it’s reframed and regurgitated OBA idea. But don’t let facts get in the way.

Finally, there’s a moderately competent Finance Minister wearing a green tie. Let’s see how much influence he has within cabinet.

LOL, I’ve got a bridge to sell you….you gullible racist.

LOL, it proves how gullible and glassy eyed the plp and it’s drones really are.

You’re a good puppy for recognizing the legislation that the OBA drew up as being a good thing. Lucky they did, as the PLP doesn’t have the intelligence to do anything good for Bermuda.
Thank you OBA.

LOL – So reasonable that they were voted out of Gov’t… Got it!

So let’s just flip your “intellectually bereft” comment back at you and your sheeple.

You OBA zombies are as disingenuous as they come….
You asked what changed from now? The EU SUBSTANCE ACT! The game changing rule that YOUR clueless OBA Gov’t did not have to deal with….

If setting up a Physical Presence in the country is now REQUIRED then I would expect any sensible Gov’t to make it as easy as possible to do so, but I am confident that this Gov’t will still look for opportunities for Bermudians in this process, a confidence I did not have with the OBA..

Next: Pathways to Status. Wonder how they’ll reframe that?

There’s no way for example, old Flip Flop standing right there could have come up with this.

It doesn’t matter how much you repeat the lie, it doesn’t make it true.

Guessing you didn’t read about automatic work permit approvals, huh? The only jobs guaranteed are the already low level positions that are already closed categories to non-Bermudians.

As I said above if the OBA did the same press release you would be screaming about how they are giving away this island to all these foreigners.

Bunch of rank hypocrites…

If this was the OBA who came out and said we are going to give these foreign firms payroll tax relief and automatically approved work permits the posts below and above would be screaming ‘anti-Bermudian’ and yada, yada, yada.

Amazing how the responses change when it is their preferred messenger. And also very sad how they can’t see their own rank hypocrisy.

Example of the private and public sectors working together for the good of Bermuda.

Its a reach to speculate that this is a show of force or support for the government–that’s making this political and its not.

Will the Government also give payroll tax relief to local businesses?

Seems those meetings aren’t so private and the same old OBA supporters are running back to the OBA.

If the OBA knew that the Minsiter was consulting with IB why did they issue a statement. They could have waited, but little Nick Kempe couldn’t help himself, and just had to say something.

Then JetGate comes after him to say, we know what he’s been saying in private. If he announced b4 consultation the minister would have been attacked for not consulting.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

PLP, thank you for recognising that there are Bermudians who can fill these jobs, unlike the OBA who want to open up the floodgates while Bermudians suffer!

PLP keep up the good work and ignore the OBA haters that are everywhere – even in your meetings pricking to the OBA.

What will Kempe and Cannonier try to say next to sully the situation?
