What is Burt going to do to stop this happening ever again. He already said it was unacceptable and Jason Hayward (the ex BSPU person is in his team.), so he has no excuses. If this ever happens again, then Burt is all fluff and no substance.

The public is literally last on the mind of all these groups.

If they’re (the BPSU) begging for public goodwill on this issue, good luck to them.

It will all slip out from under that flat tire on one of those unions buses. It is Bermuda for goodness sake! Just be quiet and listen……..

I agree 100%.
Unions are pain in the butt.

“While the Union recognises the inconvenience caused as a result of our emergency discussions with Government yesterday, it is important to highlight that employers have a legal obligation to provide a working environment that protects individuals’ human rights and ensures the safety, health and wellbeing of all employees.”

I would like to see that law. I was not aware it existed.

The BIU and BPSU are hopelessly caught in a timewarp and are a significant hindrance to progress in Bermuda.

These comments prove it.

A compete waste of space,time and effort to say absolutely jack ship. Talk about BS baffles brains nice try but it aint working. It is obvious the union has NO RESPECT or CARE for the general ublicThe buses could have and should have run. Didn’t have much resect for the union before cause of the way they act now its NIL

I call Bull $%!t on this. The Bermuda taxpayer paid for yesterday and got NOTHING in return I feel robbed by my own people. We are broke and this is how the BPSU treat us?

What a load of you know what! The public appreciates and respects due consideration from Unions. To blame the Government for not informing the public that the buses were not going to run, is nothing short of asinine on your part. I had previously held the BPSU in high regard; with responsible and level-headed leadership. You have let me down and proven you are not much better than the BIU. Shame on you!!

Are DPT supervisors “bus drivers”? What stopped the buses from running?
Little people from the BPSU trying to bully the Taxpayers.

Er, no. Not good enough. You can provide the service while simultaneously negotiating with Government.

Not acceptable.
