Well, the elections are over, but the horse-trading isn't! 7 MLAs from the governing strongly anti-expat PPM, 3 from the West Bay CDP (formerly UDP, name changed for no obvious reason), and 9 independents. Many of the MLAs were elected with a majority of less than 50, in 19 electorates with an average number of voters of 1000. Amazing! Coalitions being signed on and signed off every few hours! Such an unstable situation is not best suited for an international tax-haven, I guess - but what can you do?

Any BE member who wants to know what's going on from time to time will have to post a question. Otherwise the mods flag me for "bumping"! Sigh...
