How do you call a vote of no confidence? Problem is, there is no real opposition party.

Way I see it, carry on down this route and Bermuda is screwed. Those who voted the PLP back in forgot why they were voted out in the first place.

This is why.

Unbelievable!! I’m still trying to figure out what has this government done during their tender. Seems like everything they’ve done has been an increase on the public’s finances. Everything has gone up on us!
Sugar tax, health insurance increased, now pension increase, food prices increase but not the wages….!! I mean when is this gonna end! Appears to be quite unbalance when everything is increasing besides our wages. We’re still awaiting the Bermuda first campaign promise!! Have you not thought of any ways to generate finances so the country is less dependent on international business?? Wake up people for fs sake!!!

It blows every voters mind that you placed Craig Trump back as the oba/UBP leader LOL. That’s dumbest decision yet. Your telling me a party that’s 95% white and 5% black couldn’t find someone in the 95% to run as leader …..or do you believe a white leader will not make it again……..Please come correct.

OJ you should be more concerned for future retirees, and make preparations for your pension, because with an underfunded scheme, less people paying in but more money coming out, the Government fund won’t last long.

Your lot were in charge in 2010 and 2012 when there were no increases. Ewart still sent $100m a year to overseas consultants though,

Why did they leave out 2001, 2010, and 2012?

The answer is because they think we’re idiots.

I would like to invite you to name one thing the plp has done that successfully brought money into the island. You cant, I saved you time. Now let’s talk about every single project the plp had their hands in with massive cost ever runs. A simpleton like you will be happy with re-naming a day that nobody will actually acknowledge. 32 years of my life and I didn’t even know we had a day for Somers lol.

Since you seem to be simple it was the plp that absolutely screwed the pension fund and then you complain about a sail boat race that more than tripled it’s initial investvestment. Where is the 800mil? It blows my mind you can actually be this stupid.

Will the people who will pay more than others into the pension pot receive more when they retire? Or is this simply taking from one and giving it to another? If so how is that fair at all?
