		<description><![CDATA[Am sorry, but the following isn&#039;t true :&quot;The PLP promised to do these things, and we have delivered on those promises.&quot;

The tech pillar of our economy boosting jobs and the economy promised by Burt never arrived (Arbitrade for one example of the many).

The countless promises on when the Southampton Princess would open (and that the deal was done announcement he used when he was challenged for the leadership many years ago). the deal wasn&#039;t done and the Southampton Princess, still hasn&#039;t opened.

The promises of the swingbridge and the temporary causeway brige being replaced.

the neglect of the roads and then the promised new machinery and resurfacing , which then wasn&#039;t included in the budget, just a small amount for a small temporary cover up (not going tolast more than a couple of years) over a few strips of road. 

The low cost affordable housing known as the grand atlantic, which then was going to be turned into a hotel, which is now going to be turned into rental space at exorbitant rents that we Bermudians will feel priced out of. the market will just reset to those rents... Clueless.

the promise of a balance budget when in fact monies were taken from funds that were mean&#039;t to help repay impending maturing debt amounts.  Rolling that debt will cost us even more ! It was effectively borrowing and cheating the budget. It was not a balance budget. 

Burt promised he wouldn&#039;t stand in the next election, and what is he doing? 

The list goes on and on

the PLP are good at promising. THEY DO NOT DELIVER.

Its is a shame that the new blood standing for the PLP has gone back in time to use emotional manipulation using race.

People have to look at what is happening now and to look at the past to not repeat the behavior of the past. This candidate is failing to do that. Such a shame.]]></description>
