Dear Sir,
A harsh awakening, and sadly no time now to balance the budget of a brilliant finance minister, Bob Richards, and a fine premier, Michael Dunkley, and his ministers to guide them through a minefield of mismanagement and ignorance that was l...

Dear Sir,
The voters are indeed a fickle lot. Take for example, Bob Richards, who took on the “poisoned chalice” of the Ministry of Finance and the mess left by his predecessors of the Progressive Labour Party.
He did a fantastic job under very tryi...

Dear Sir,
As one who otherwise agrees with Robert Pires, I find it puzzling that he began his recent letter in defence of businesses against progressive government by lamenting our times to be one of “Trumpian attacks on truth and the media”.

Dear Sir,
Your opinion piece today (The Royal Gazette, July 25) was 20/20 hindsight; it is very easy now to lambast the One Bermuda Alliance for its Pathways to Status initiative. If I remember correctly, it released a document with the intention of ...

Dear Sir,
I am disgusted at the state of the Belmont ferry dock. The trash bin has been full to overflowing since Monday last week, above.
