Premier In UK For Overseas Territories Meetings
Premier David Burt is currently in London participating in the annual Overseas Territories Joint Ministerial Council [OT JMC] Meetings.
A Government spokesperson said, “Overseas Territories leaders from Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Montserrat, Turks and Caicos Islands, Ascension, Tristan Da Cunha and St. Helena have convened at the annual gathering to discuss matters of mutual interest to their respective territories.
“While in London, Premier Burt will also meet with key representatives of the UK Government.
“The Premier returns to Bermuda on Friday and is accompanied to the UK by the Deputy Premier, the Hon. Walter Roban, JP, MP, Minister of Home Affairs. The Premier and Deputy Premier are supported on the UK visit by Kimberley Durrant, UK Representative and Director of Bermuda’s London Office.”
I am from Warwick, Bermuda and no amount of cabinet reshuffling in tbe UK should cover up what Britian has done to me as a black Bermudian. Does the Premier have time for a meeting with me? I have been denied rights to return to my birthplace, employment opportunities and am essentially being kept away from my home due to British scandals that have nothing to do with me. As a black Bermudian how coiuld I be the cause of Britian’s social or financial problems? They take too many liberties with my life and freedom based on old PLP photos.
“I have been denied rights to return to my birthplace”
If your birthplace is Bermuda you cannot be denied entry. Our Constitution guarantees the right of every Bermudian the right to enter Bermuda.
That can always be reinterpreted by the privy council.
Bermuda’s Constitution seems pretty clear to me.
Except with his consent, no person shall be hindered in the enjoyment of his freedom of movement, that is to say, the right to move freely throughout Bermuda, the right to reside in any part thereof, the right to enter Bermuda and immunity from expulsion therefrom.
That provision is, of course, subject to the Bermuda Immigration and Protection Act, but that Act does not affect the rights of Bermudians.
You are crazy. You can’t return because you’re institutionalized.
Stay in your padded room.
Hahaha!!! Love that comment!!
YES!!! Call, then schedule an appointment. He is due back in Bermuda this Friday!
Coincidently, the conference allows time off for Christmas shopping.
But … I thought our Premier hated everything British.
And deputy Premier went too? Wrong.
Who is acting Premier before these 2 clowns are back.
Seems clear Roban is being groomed to take over from Burt in the near term. Shows how shallow the gene pool is.
To paraphrase American pundits in the 1990s, if you reduce a family tree to a family Bush, you cannot hide as much under it.
When is the oba tricking more….I mean rolling out more surrogates and clowns for the next beating/election?
Joe Bloggs was appointed Acting Premier.
In that case there is hope.
