Bermuda names Craig Cannonier as new premier

Craig Cannonier has taken over as the premier of Bermuda, replacing Paula Cox who has held the position since October 2010.

Cannonier was sworn in by governor George Ferguson as the island’s 12th premier. He will unveil his new cabinet later this week.

Commenting on his new appointment, Cannonier said: “We are going to use this election to bring about two big changes to Bermuda. First, we are going to get this economy working again for people. There is no more task right now than to grow jobs to end the hardships felt by thousands of families. And second, we are going to bring people together.”
