Whilst it is true that his mishandlers are themselves clearly bereft of common sense and political nous, a judicious and alert leader would independently recognize an ill-considered proposal. As I say, a judicious and alert leader. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who didn't bully Colas on the Richmond Hill surface dressing fiasco before Colas fought back with email evidence? Who didn't bully Dr Glover? Who aren't bullying Dr Ewart? Who didn't try to bully the suppliers of the original replacement NSC slides until they were forced to buy a second set that were actually the right size? Who have shown their true fascist colours on the matter of a perfectly legitimate Manx Radio question (and who have been equally intransigent with Paul Moulton and others)? The same Council of Ministers that have overspent and underdelivered on the Promenade 'scheme'? Are throwing money at creating a glass palace in Liverpool when a few posh Portacabins would have done perfectly well? And who have now thrown their hands up on Covid and told us (effectively) it's every man for himself? I don't know who you are (unlike others it seems) but I suspect you're living in a parallel universe where everyone is equal, except CoMin members who are more equal than the others. I think you may be confusing strong leadership with bullying. “Fascist colours” . Bit strong that. Can you elaborate? Not sure a few posh Portacabins are the image we want to present to the world as the departure/ arrival point to/ from the IOM. It would support the Fast Show comedic view of the Island however. Yes every project could be reduced to that which is absolutely practically necessary and no more but image is also important. Re myself I don’t know who think may know me. I was given to understand that if you used a nom de plume on here then your anonymity would be preserved. ( Subject to legal stuff obviously) Finally good luck in your efforts to become an MHK The way in which you were hung out to dry over the alleged racism sting on the radio still rankles with me.

No it's not strong leadership (an oxymoron for anything connected to our government) it's well documented out and out bullying tactics.

It’s always easy to take the populist approach. Sometimes the hard decisions have to be made even if not always understood immediately, The benefits may take a while to come through.

Patience my friend 2,308 cases, how much patience do we need, I think you are the one mixing up hard decisions with a Comin that listens to the chamber of commerces before it listens to health experts advice. I feel fortunate to still be working, as people seem to be dropping like flies. The PAG meeting tonight "Coping with Covid" with Dr Spin and the Boy Blunder says it all. http://www.positiveactiongroup.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=650:coping-with-covid&catid=34:pag-meet&fbclid=IwAR1j9xmhjj0ZR8yxIHWqLiFwGX4ZVp9KXr73DaadcdplsTfUDcjPTUAFNAs Edited July 26, 2021 by Holte End Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shake me up Judy Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Do you think they'll turn up tonight ? They might have to take some heat. Will the meeting go ahead in the circumstances ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the meeting go ahead in the circumstances ? No, they will do a virtually meeting,so staying safe. While the rest of us are packed in side by side. I can only think it is part of Comins herd mentality policy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/public-offered-chance-to-discuss-community-issues-with-police/ Would have like to go to this in Peel but due to late spotting it (did they advertise it last week ?) may have to swerve it.

Augustus Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/studies-aiming-to-boost-urban-regeneration-in-east/ The amateurs at Manx Radio News still can't spell or use spell-check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monasqueen Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 They write words as they speak them. And they often can't pronounce words properly either. I've just checked "feasability" on a Word document, and it is picked up as wrong by the spell checker, as it has been on here, too. Manx Radio clearly doesn't have anyone who understands red wavy lines under words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
