make your point by being honest, you would prefer an expat from Quebec represent you in Brussels right?

who better a person to have chosen for the role.

People WANT to know Webb’s salary, office costs, staff let alone her travel costs.
Bermudians are getting restless with all the $$$$ being spent. Every day we hear of more and more government spending like drunken sailors. Just wait for next month….the Budget taxes will have such an impact on all of us who are not in Government or the Civil Service. We shall wish we could have a nice flat in Brussels with a foreign bank account,bus services,trash collection and schools that could educate our upcoming generations.Alas!

I missed that ad in the media. Must be on the Job Board. Blatant cronyism there are people in this community who are educated and more qualified for this position. No wonder young professionals are so despondent about lack of opportunities in the job market. Why would the government not set the standards? Well I guess they just did, only not in the best interests of the residents.
