I have to speak up as I am totally ashamed with this scenario, for the volunteers whom wanted to get back to their home lane, fine. And it would be nice in future to secure a direct flight between the Azores and Bermuda. But for the manner in which all others were treated, is disgraceful.

Many Bermudians, especially our newest minister, to justify this in one way or the other is not acceptable.

Is there a direct flight to Jamaica and Islands for those that are technically in the same category?

Shame on us, for treating such a distinctive contribution to our culture this way.

That is my opinion, and I am sure a lot of others.

One guy said he was paying $2000 Rent a month,now that landlord gets NOTHING!
I wonder how many other Bermudian landlords experience this as of today.
Burch’s green brigade have struck again.

Many of our Portuguese people including my Grandparents and father were very hard working people. My dad was born here so at the time he had his Bermuda status. My Grandparents had there own farm and worked very hard. The Portuguese people have done so much for Bermuda’s agriculture through the years since the early 1900′s when my Grandparents arrived there were many other Portuguese families here. Now the Portuguese are being sent away. I don’t consider it very fair since they have done so much for Bermuda and if you call a Landscaper just a “grass cutter” you should be ashamed of yourself. Somehow I hope it can change in the future and The Portuguese people won’t be refused work permits?
