The One Bermuda Alliance (OBA) continues to show a fundamental misunderstanding of governance and Bermuda’s role and position in the region and the world.
Let us be clear: Bermuda does not have a caretaker government. The Constitution is clear, and the OBA would do well to read it before making incorrect claims. The government continues to function with the same Cabinet Ministers in place. Additional cabinet appointments will be made in due course, as is the usual process.
There is no crisis—just an opposition looking for headlines.
Regional Reach
We are presently in Barbados, representing Bermuda, at a major CARICOM meeting. Leaders from across the region are discussing economic cooperation, trade, security, and development. These are real issues that affect Bermudians – from foreign direct investment to regional partnerships in the hospitality industry that will help us grow our workforce/economy and collaborate on combating antisocial behaviour.
As importantly, we are here discussing food security, which has been one of the top concerns of our fellow Bermudians, The OBA suggests that international engagement is somehow a distraction—but ignoring global affairs is not an option for a country like Bermuda.
On one hand, they and others speak of the need to increase our outreach to international organisations. On the other hand, they decry when we do just that. So, how else will we grow our economy without engaging with international organisations?
As always, we will continue governing, delivering for the people, and ensuring Bermuda is known and respected on the world stage.
