ELECTION '07 / THE LEADERS' PERSPECTIVES
We will put people first
When the United Bermuda Party was voted out of office 1998, it was a big disappointment for the party. But looking back, it was the right decision for Bermuda.
PLP's stuck to its platform for 44 years; UBP's merely copied it
Choosing which party to vote for on Election Day has always been easy for me and this year is no exception.
Can PLP serve both core supporters and business?
Only by tackling our education system...
PLP: Victorious, but deeply wounded
Party should avoid temptation to see its win as an endorsement of its vices
It's time to start bridging our divides
The prime task now facing the election victor is healing the community psyche from the bruising it has taken during this election.

With the election over, let's be individuals again
I must admit that, when it comes to politics, too much solidarity gives me the creeps.
Biggest challenge facing UBP's new leader? The UBP
Forget about winning elections - party needs someone who can transform it into a viable Opposition
Election 'O7: An explicitly race-baited campaign
On reflection, the December 07 election was a struggle in which race was fiercely exploited by PLP leaders, and neither blacks nor whites throughout the community were able to adequately blunt, defend against or rebut this thrust.
Who is left to keep our leaders in check?
The PLP successfully dismissed its critics over the last year, but it did more than that: It completely trashed them.
UBP needs to shed its legacy to move forward
We've entered a peculiar phase in Bermuda's history. Two things are almost certain to happen over the next decade. One is that the UBP will change. The second is that the PLP will likely win the next election.

The key role of blacks in curtailing discrimination
My last column, in Wednesday's Bermuda Sun, looked at how segregation began for me at birth, at a time when the white babies and the black babies at the hospital were separated by race.
We can't fix our problems without reliable info
The handling of information is not one of Government's strong points.
Letter: Denied the right to vote
I am writing about the situation of Permanent Resident Card (PRC) holders in Bermuda, who are denied the right to vote and thus, are denied the right to fully participate in society.
Our education system is self-destructing
I suppose we should be thrilled that a public golf course will get a $13 million facelift.
Gov't. reports rot away while our students suffer
I think I'm beginning to smell something. It's the odour that comes from paper stored too long in a damp place.
