On December 18th, this general election will dictate Bermuda's future. A vote for the PLP will ensure that we move forward as a country. A vote for the PLP ensures that al of our children will have a fair shot at the success that has been denied to many Bermudians in the past . This election is about finally saying goodbye to the failed and unfair policies and practices of the UBP and progressing forward with the Progressive Labour Party.
I'm voting for the PLP because they get the job done. The UBP said that Tourism was dead but the PLP resurrected it. The UBP said that international business jobs should be for a chosen few - but the PLP said that those jobs should be for everyone. The UBP abandoned the public school system because it was of no use to them and their children. But the PLP are making sweeping changes to the public school system so that all children regardless of their economic background, are equipped with the academic skills needed to compete in the future.
Over the last decade the PLP has ushered in a period of great economic growth and stability that has seen both tourist and business' flock to our shores in record numbers; bringing jobs and revenue to be shared by all of us in this country. And along with this boom, the PLP has built scores of affordable housing in order to make sure that our children all have a fair chance to own a piece of this island. The PLP has made it possible for more Bermudians then ever to own homes and will continue to do so.
All of these successes of the PLP are as a direct result of the PLPs inherent and original commitment to right the injustices and the discriminations of the past by making sure that we all have a chance to participate in Bermuda's successful future.
But the long knives of the opposition are out and they are committed to dragging Bermuda back to the unfair Bermuda of their grandfathers, so winning this election won't be easy - but, if we, the people of Bermuda, from east to west, organize and rise up, we will win.
