So much lies you say but your clowns tried to fool the voters by changing the name to run from a racist past! If that wasn’t the case why change the name at all when things were so much better under the ubp flag?

Lol so why are you even commenting on the OBA?

Simons’ comment is about the money that was paid. Is it coming back to Govt coffers? Was there an agreement between Gencom and Govt to get the money back?

Seems to me that you didn’t read the article and the list of missing money transactions. That money could be useful right now but it seems to me that you don’t care about that. All you care about flipping off the OBA. Blind much?

The OBA is finished and cemetery is closedown with no chance to be government again. The few troll bloggers they have left will try their best to defend the OBA and will fail. Every election they fail to win the party will say we weren’t connected to the voters which is the same story Opposition leader Cole repeated recently:)
We weren’t connected to the voters!
We weren’t connected to the voters!!!!!
The fact is the voters will never again connect to the failed UBP experiment again.

Cole Simons is not criticizing the payment to you or anyone formerly employed at South P. He’s saying that there are no assurances or mechanisms that she’s seen that will see that money come back to Govt from Gencom.
Your assault and criticism on him is unwarranted and uneducated.

What wounds of the UBP? Are you talking about the surplus of money that the island had? Are you any richer since the PLP have been in power? Stop bringing up race, ALL Bermudians become affected by the decisions govt make.

He didn’t complain about people getting paid whet they owed. What is wrong is the fact that the PLP made no arrangements to ensure that they were repaid by the large corporation that broke our labor laws. They have let this company get away scot free with hardly even a peep of condemnation.

The workers deserved what they were owed and PLP literally bailed out a large corporation with our tax dollars with no means and/or arrangements to be compensated by the large corporation.

So he is correct no matter how much you froth at the mouth at the sign of any non-PLP representative having an opinion.

The problem wasn’t that the govt helped, but did it without contracting with Gencom for reimbursement. Ultimately the govt have to get the monies back from individuals, many of who have since left Bermuda. To get money back through courts is expensive. So it costs everyone money and that’s including you.

Yes and that someone will be Bill Gates who has already visited the Island…..he has the wealth to bail Bermuda out and own us then…..this is where we are headed folks….CONTROL OF OUR LIVES!!!!! be careful what you wish for!!

“More recently, they spent $11 million dollars to cover severance cheques to former employees of the Fairmont Southampton, without making any arrangement to retrieve these funds from their employer, Gencom Ltd”

First of all Mr. Cole my family was one of the many families that benefited from the Government stepping in to help us. You UBP aka OBA party or whatever you call yourself now are doing the same crap and preaching the same rhetoric that gave you 6 seats vs 30 win. You need to pack it up because you will never win talking like this. The wounds of the UBP will never heal so allow the FDM party to take over or you will be moved out by force next election by your own white Bermudian supporters who have woken up and can finally see the party is a lost!

If the last election didn’t reveal that white Bermudians are now also tire of the ubp aka OBA failed tricks nothing will!!!!!!!!!

It is easy for any government to spend but where is the plan to generate the economy? All I hear is birds chirping outside of my window. It is going to take Bermuda to be brought down to third world level in order for PLP supporters to WAKE UP and be like…ooops I think we have a problem.

And this is why Bermuda will never go independent. With this kind of debt, how on Earth will an independent Bermuda get out of this mess without some help from someone more powerful?
