The PLP's not so secret austerity plan - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2012/10/the-plps-not-so.html
The PLP's not so secret austerity plan. Larry Burchall has demonstrated, through indisputable math. That while the PLP are claiming to reject austerity, that they are in fact cutting back on government spending, ie. austerity measures. However, where Larry is not quite correct, is that this is a secret, unannounced. The PLP are on record as being pro-austerity, as far back as January 2010 when a Cabinet memo was circulated to the Civil Service ordering ' austere cost savings. October 10, 2012.

Feelings vs Facts - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2013/02/feelings-vs-fac.html
I spent 3 hours tonight at the term limits public forum and came away with the clear conclusion that the room (and presumably the island) are divided into two camps on this issue: Feelings vs Facts. Both sides were talking at cross purposes. Michael Fahy and the OBA took a lot of flak that was really the PLP's to own if we're honest. There was a lot of anger about Bermudians not getting jobs they were qualified for over non-Bermudians. Easy to say sitting in the audience and not on the hot seat, but that...

Role reversals - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2012/12/role-reversals.html
There's a few interesting role reversals going on in this campaign versus 2007. Amid all the PLP's chest thumping about televised debates and a party leader debate, it's worth noting that in 2007 the PLP rejected a televised debate. So, in 2012, it's the PLP professing to want debates, which indicates that they think they're losing. I'd also point out that Paula Cox has been keeping an extremely low profile during this campaign, as Ewart Brown did in 2007. That suggests that like her predecessor the ...

Boo! - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2012/11/boo.html
You are the only people left in Bermuda who care about the UBP. As hard as you try, a defunct political party that presided over surplus employment, low debt and budget surpluses just isn't that scary anymore. What can they do to people? Introduce massive unemployment and unsustainable debt? Bermuda's problems aren't in the past. They are our present and future. When you want to talk seriously about that let us know.

Quote of the Day - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2013/02/quote-of-the-da-4.html
Quote of the Day. From Former Labour and Home Affairs Minister David Burch in his October 2008 letter to employers regarding term limits:. Most employers," Col. Burch said, "mistakenly believe that the policy was introduced to make more jobs available for Bermudians.". Mr Burch should have said "employers and the PLP". I guess Walter Roban didn't get the memo. The OBA are more interested in governing. The PLP in politicking. What Bermuda needs now is good governance. Yes they spent some polit...Propose w...

A fifty year political battle is over - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2012/12/a-fifty-year-po.html
A fifty year political battle is over. As Bermudians finally relax into the holidays after a difficult 2012, capped by a famous and nail biting general election win for the young One Bermuda Alliance, we turn not just a new page but write a new chapter in our social, political and economic evolution. The campaign was a study in contrasts. It became apparent that the PLP had one trick, an obsessive fixation on the UBP which wasn't gaining traction. Whether the OBA would be successful in driving ho...The P...

Faux outrage of the day - Politics.bm
http://www.politics.bm/archives/2012/10/faux-outrage-of.html
Faux outrage of the day. Only the PLP are reality denying enough to issue a statement stating that " government property is no place for partisan politics. On the day that they're holding their 3 day party conference at a public school. The OBA crossing this line is very dangerous. Today, politics in government bus shelters. Tomorrow, who knows what!
