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 ...

Resuming our regular broadcast of political blah-de-blah. After a bit of respite due to Tropical Storm Fay and Hurricane Gonzalo, we will now resume the usual political to-and-fro, starting with the upcoming bye-election. Have revealed their candidates. Let the island's residents retreat to their respective corners and have at it. Ding. Pink and blue mean bus, according to my son. Little guy: That's a ferry boat? Me: No, it's a party boat. Little guy: But it's pink and blue so it should be a bus or ferry.

The morning commute when school's out for the summer. Positively blissful compared to the alternative. Price controls, a bad idea? Bermuda Independent has outlined reasons why implementing price controls on grocery items may be a failure. Are there alternatives that could make grocery shopping less of a hit to a struggling family's wallet? I don't know, but the discussion ought to start. Wildcat strikes - Government's hem and haw. Tales of disgusting people. Both these situations happened in New York Cit...

The continued inaction with regard to road safety. Last road collision resulting in major injury: April 26th. Last road traffic related fatality: April 18th.

BeachLime Bermuda: Being frugal
http://beachlimegibbo.blogspot.com/2015/05/being-frugal.html
Every now and then, I think, yes I would like to get some new shirts and pants for work, or another pair of shoes. Lord knows a freaking car would be useful as well. But, due to the cost of living, I hold off on it. Mortgage, electricity, groceries, little guy's future education, those have to be budgeted for. Sigh, indeed. [/ramble].
