The PLP this afternoon issued a statement condemning “anonymous vile and disgusting online comments”.It comes in the wake of OBA leader Craig Cannonier’s calls for commenters to stop making disparaging remarks online about Premier Paula Cox.The PLP statement said: “The PLP believes in standing strong for Bermudians and lifting up, not pulling down. So it is always disappointing when some choose to go in the gutter.“That, however, does not deter or discourage us for working for all of Bermuda, even the naysayers. There is a clear choice and difference between how we believe conversations regarding elections and politics should occur.“The anonymous vile and disgusting online comments and images are unacceptable and have no place in Bermuda politics.“This type of vitriol does nothing to unite the country. In fact, it only serves to take us to a place of division and separation."
