You have a point. Official number is 9.4%, but that’s government figures, so reality is probably more like 25%.

“Food inflation in Bermuda is 9.4%.”

NO, no, no! Inflation in Bermuda is only 1/2 of that in the rest of world. The PLP government’s economic policy actually reduces the cost of goods between Port Elizabeth N.J. and Bermuda!

I’m sure that after a little reflection you came to the conclusion based on your observations that lack of WiFi at the airport is the least of our worries.

I was just in Bermuda, visiting…it’s been 4 years.
What happened? It’s a mess!
What have you guys spend $3 billion on?

The airport looks messy, it’s not that old. Where is all the cedar that was in the old airport?
Someone’s house, near a vinyard?

Can LF Wade provide free wifi to visitors, so they can communicate, and comply with Bermuda’s regulations, without “roaming”. There is no internet access, but you do get a message asking users to “unplug and re-plug the router”.
Being told to put your phone away in the immigration arrival hall, while requiring visitors to hand it over to the immigration officer, is “Peek Bermuda”.

Can you be any more un welcoming? Bermuda’s economy relies on IB and the trickle of tourists you have left.
Do better, Bermuda.

Promises made in 2017, not delivered yet in 2023, 6 years later.

How many seniors have died waiting? How many more will die before getting that first pittance of a check?

Wow such a huge increase, what will they do with all that money? Maybe use it for transport to the polling station for the up coming general election.
