Statement by Shadow Tourism Minister Wayne Furbert

Since taking office, the OBA have proven that their promises mean nothing and that the values of openness, honesty and transparency that they claimed to have before the election, no longer apply to them.

Credible allegations of imminent job cuts within the Ministry of Tourism are disturbing, especially in light of the OBA's repeated promise not to cut civil servant jobs.  Many Bermudians took the OBA at their word and voted for jobs. Now they may find their friends, neighbours or even themselves out of a job.

The Tourism Department is comprised of talented, capable Bermudians who, with the few tools they have, are fighting to bring back the glory days of tourism.  Now, the halls of tourism ring with whispers of OBA deceit, OBA broken promises and OBA lack of compassion towards Bermudians.

The OBA's habit of incompetence, acting in secrecy, cover-up, lying when caught and breaking promises must stop.  We call on the Minister of Tourism to do the right thing and tell the people the truth about the future of Bermudian jobs within his Ministry.
