The coverage of Bermuda and the visit in the international press has been huge.  Now that’s pop and sizzle!

Ordinarily the PLP website jumps for joy whenever there’s a smiley photo op of the Premier meeting a pop star or diplomat.

Humorously, the spin machine has been silent about this whole visit.  As if it never happened.  Like a bad dream.

(Update: they’ve now posted the Premier’s toast at the Dinner.  I have to wonder if he choked a little saying “this small slice of Britain called Bermuda.”
