If she is representing the Bermuda Government in an official capacity, why is she not named in the ilo documents, another vacation??

Point being that the ILO isn’t about whichever party is in govt

Right, so it’s still a govt initiative not a party one as the OP was suggesting it be instead.

No he didn’t. Fahy attended the Caribbean version, which was the equivalent of the Barbados meeting last month that Foggo attended. He never attended the worldwide one in Geneva. That’s a new expense. Will it create any jobs? Will it improve our standard of living? I think we know the answer to that.

And did that translate into 2.000 jobs? Nope!

Sorry but I can’t honestly vote for the OBA with Mr. C leading the party. Any person with intelligence can see he it was wrong before and it’s wrong now. Politics is sad and the OBA needs to lead by example if they desire real change. We won’t win again under his leadership and bloggers will be complaining again after next election.

It’s really not. ILO isn’t about partisan party politics. Mr Fahy attended one or two of these when the OBA was the govt.

They have another fool called Jetgate now. Milkman is a business man and understands money. Craig only knows about Jetgate and look how that worked out for him when he was Premier. I will not vote PLP but I will never vote for the OBA with Craig as the leader we can do better.

All the Milkman’s fault! OBA arrogance at its best! They will never get back in as long as that fool is involved! Never!

The ‘people’ will not vote for the OBA because the ‘people’ are overwhelmingly racist and would prefer to suffer than to do what’s best for the whole island. It’s called revenge politics, and the majority of you embrace it…except when it doesn’t benefit you….that’s called hypocrisy.

A common trait of ‘real’ bermudians.

Except when the OBA was in the economy was expanding, not tanking.

I told you this was exactly what was going to happen when she was down at that Barbados meeting last month. Just too great a temptation to resist.

Nothing came from the UBP changing the name to oba. Makes sense to just change it back the PEOPLE will not vote for obaUBP!!!

I agree, however I would think that two of them have their expenses paid for by taxpayers. The other two presumably have their travel expenses paid by their own organisations.
I guess Foggo goes straight from this to the overseas football game, paid for by us.

11 days in Switzerland for 4 people sounds expensive considering nothing will come from it.

Well done, Bermuda Government…keeping us well-informed and MOST transparent. That is something the prior government forgot….transparency and honesty.
Thank You!!!!

why? what on earth is the benefit of a Minister going to this conference? How much – two flights (business class?), hotel, expenses ….
Also – why are there only THREE updates on minister’s travel this year? have ministers only gone overseas three times so far this year? Yeah, right …

Hope the PLP paid for this, this is a LABOUR PARTY conference. Crazy waste of time and money.
