Five billion dollars. I don’t care about the f**king election, I do care that these two idiots can’t even come out and say that we are $5bn in the hole.

Entirely on the PLP. This is what 20 years of incompetence gets you. Idiots.

The emperor wears no clothes and someone elsewhere referred to Dickinson as Bermuda’s own Baghdad Bob. Just about sums it up.

The key words are no new taxes this year. He basically can’t this year, as it would further depress/damage the economy. Now, going forward is another thing. As the economy improves over the next few years expect taxes to rise as well as new taxes.

Right you two, let’s have a bit of honesty please. Why don’t you just say Bermuda is f**ked?

From today’s budget breakfast:

Bermuda’s financial liabilities stretch far beyond its net debt of $3 billion. It is estimated a further $1.5 billion to $1.7 billion of unfunded liabilities are stored up in the Public Sector Superannuation Fund, the Ministers and Members Legislature Pension Fund and the Government Employees Health Insurance Fund.

The pension funds run out of money in 26 years.
