OBA’s False Claims Show They Can’t Even Keep Up With Parliament
The One Bermuda Alliance’s latest release is a blatant misrepresentation of facts and a clear indication of a party that cannot even remember what was discussed in Parliament.
The claim that the Gilbert Institute’s future use was just announced is false—this was publicly outlined by the Government in a ministerial statement by Minister Burch on December 13, 2024, and widely reported in the media.
OBA’s Credibility in Question
The OBA’s inability to keep up with developments that are shared in the Legislature raises serious concerns about their credibility. If they cannot keep track of key announcements made in the House, how can they be trusted to govern?
Education Reform: A Stronger Future for Our Children
Education reform is about building a better Bermuda for our children. The PLP has invested in:
✔️ Modernising our schools
✔️ Phasing out middle schools
✔️ Expanding signature learning programs to teach trades and skills
✔️ Ensuring school facilities continue to serve the community
This includes repurposing sites like the Gilbert Institute to meet critical needs:
🏡 A Seniors Daycare Facility to support families caring for elderly parents
🥦 Heron Bay site repurposed to support cooperative food enterprises, reducing grocery costs for Bermudians
Where is the OBA’s Plan?
Since the OBA does not support the conversion of Gilbert into a Senior Daycare facility, perhaps they can explain how they intend to ease the pressure on the “Sandwich Generation.”
The PLP has heard Bermudians who are struggling to raise children while supporting their ageing parents—and we have a plan.
The OBA has no plan—only false media statements that fail to address the real challenges Bermudians face.
