David Burt has a history of making unkept promises says Robert King OBA

“We know the PLP playbook,” said OBA candidate Robert King for constituency 10, Smith’s North. “But after seven years of failed leadership and broken promises, the real question is simple: Why should Bermudians believe anything in this latest platform?”

Over the last two elections, the PLP has pledged fish processing plants, vertical farms, casinos, balanced budgets, education reform, a dispute resolution centre, crypto jobs, universal healthcare, and action on gangs and violence—none of which have materialized.

“Tonight’s platform launch was nothing more than another list of empty promises,” said King. “They’ve had seven years to solve Bermuda’s problems, yet many have only worsened. Every voter should ask themselves: Am I better off now than I was seven years ago? If the answer is no, David Burt has got to go.”

OBA Deputy Leader Ben Smith reinforced the party’s stance, stating, “David Burt has a history of making promises he never intends to keep, just to win votes. As a result, nearly three-quarters of Bermudians are considering leaving for better opportunities elsewhere. It’s time for real change.”

After four years of rebuilding, the OBA has the leadership, the team, and the platform to turn Bermuda around.

“Today marks a turning point in this campaign,” said OBA leader Jarion Richardson. “We’re not going to dwell on the government’s failures or another list of promises that they intend to break—Bermudians already know how bad things have gotten. Instead, we are focused on a positive vision for the future. We have the people, the plan, and the commitment to make Bermuda the best place in the world to live, work, learn, play, and raise a family. And if given the opportunity, we will wake up every day with that mission in mind.”
