…23 dollars… REALLY??.. if everthing else was most likely funded by the people that invited him over there…then WHY did he buy food for 23 dollars with GOVERNMENT/ TAXPAYER money? LASTLY… you gonna have to explain what this MISC was… maybe tequila? lol
Thats his level of arrogance and childish behavior, worst premier ever.
Those who doubt my comment, if you are not a friend, dr or unknown entertainer what has he or his govt done for you or Bermuda as a whole?? A line of people waiting.
The Premier accepting free trips again? From whom? What do the donors expect in return? Isn’t there a code of ethics about acceptance of valuable gifts like this?
I agree with you.
