Morning Steve, not really sure of the relevance of your comment. Of course you can go to both, one or neither. My comment however was directed solely to Deborah above who insinuated that participants in the Pride Parade were absent at the Labour Day Parade; thus my pointing out the inaccuracy of that comment.

Of course, Deborah is completely correct that the majority of the people who attended the Pride Parade were conspicuously absent from the Labour Day Parade. That’s simply a fact and something to be considered. But there were people who attended both.

You seem to forget the PLP has more ex UBP Leaders and MPs than the OBA.

I was at both parades and noticed people also from both parades.

Obviously not everyone, but it’s a mistake to say that there was no mutual support. I saw a few people at the labour day parade also sporting rainbows.

I’ve not seen a single statement from any union opposing the Pride Parade. Perhaps I missed it, please direct me to it and spare the attacks which are unnecessary.

Same reason the UBP boys aka OBA government didn’t pass the law when in charge.

” In fact, if you listen to the speeches, ”

I’m guessing you didn’t receive any local news under that rock, where you must have been living for the past month.

It’s nice to see Bermuda celebrate the Canadian Labor day holiday….although I find it strange that so many ‘real’ bermudians hate Canadians so much….and then celebrate with them.

You lot are soo trivial. How come you all didnt come out with your rainbow and flowers to support this real Bermudian significant event! Please….

Let’s not be ridiculous. It rained equally (of equal duration and intensity) at both – short, and medium heavy, albeit the one on Saturday was after the march had re-entered the park).

The unions were not against the Pride Parade, so no need to be against the Labour Day Parade. In fact, if you listen to the speeches, the union leadership were supportive of the Pride Parade and the need to end discrimination of any form.
