		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Z . De Silva .  
 I  am sure that manywhe are left  here  following the mass exodist as I, are disappointed in you  taking time out in the media using the BELCo. Issue  to be- rate  the OBE  they  are  the loyal opposition party who in good faith  represents their constituents.

   Zane , you do no have to agree with every issue , just get along .

 As we read between the lines  your mandate is for the betterment and advancement of Bermuda and its people.

  This is conditional on ,and provided that you can come up with something better and workable .

  Construction take a back seat  !

Food is a big  issue  these  days so why are we not planting more . increased vegitation in our dies can do no harm .

 Surely plantin food has to be the number one task or did we miss the boat again this year ?

   Zand Bermuda is  financially  a  ship in distress .
What do we do when we run our of tax money. i will put foon on my table  before  any thing else.

 May i ask  is it true that  Government is in competition with the private sector ? 
 Lots of empty trucks out there. including the three new crane trucks that came over the bridge.

    Zane,the people of this island are presently under considerable stress following the Covid  19  where many people  died or mamed from compulsory bad  medications and  unrealistic uncontrolled  inflation  does not help matters and double dip taxation  with   no reserves to mention  a few.

 The cruise ship business ends up  by taking many to the beach and that is it,  Why ?

 B.T.W . Please don&#039;t refer to yourselves as leaders we are not  the under dogs or sheep !

 Happy cup match !]]></description>
