Letter: Independent candidates can provide both change and balance

Independent Candidates Erwin P. Adderley and David J. Tavares write that the true values of an independent representative are freedom and personal responsibility.

Does the OBA have a hidden agenda?

For weeks, we in the PLP have pointed out that the OBA offers no ideas and no solutions to Bermuda’s most vexing challenges.

My show is back!

Shawnette Somner: I am thankful to all of the listeners who have supported Generations since it began in January 2012 and I hope you’ll also continue to read my weekly articles here in the Bermuda Sun.

Elders: Our great untapped resource

We need to take every spare moment we have to engage with and learn from our elders. Their bodies fail, yet their minds and spirits get stronger.

When kite-flying is a sinister nuisance

If you lived in my neighbourhood, which sometimes feels like Beirut, you probably would have committed hara-kiri by now.

Simmons: PLP stands strong for Bermudians every year

J. Dawn Simmons: We have and we will continue to standing strong for Bermudians whether an election is around the corner or not!

How the OBA's claims about cars collide with the facts

Christopher Famous: Often I wonder if in their haste to paint the PLP Government as inept and indulgent, the OBA ever stops to check facts?

I am angry about what has happened to Bermuda

Gaylynne Cannonier: Why can't our political participants be grown-ups, and focus on being the best we can be in doing the public's work?

The OBA can turn around St George's

Nandi Davis: As I canvassed in St George's and talked to people who live there, the deep concern they feel about their economic future under this Government is always close to the surface.

Shootings not about political point-scoring

Christopher Famous: Recently the OBA made a statement indicating the "PLP has led Bermuda into a world of shootings".

Yes, we Bermudians are xenophobic. Here's how

Christopher Famous: Over the last few years there has been a resonating term banded about. Bermudians 'don't like foreigners'; we Bermudians are averse to opening our doors.

We need to teach youngsters the importance of giving

Shawnette Somner: If children don’t learn early that there are things in the home that they need to do, if for no other reason that they live there and must assist to keep the home tidy, then as they get older they see no reason to do it either.

To protect our open spaces we need to tighten regulations

BEST reports that without appropriate planning and stringent monitoring, piecemeal developments needlessly eat away at Bermuda's limited and dwindling bank of irreplaceable and health-sustaining open spaces.

This is a good time for unions and developers to cooperate

Elaine Murray: I was practically giddy when I heard the news that Peter Green and his two handsome sons, Alexander and Andrew were buying the Hamilton Princess.

As a PLP supporter I have a lot to cheer about

Christopher Famous: I have made it a practice not to reply to personal insults. Bear with me while I make an exception and address a statement by Bryant Trew.
