The sponsor was IOM Creameries. I bet he regrets not buying Manx milk for his coffee shop Edited June 12, 2020 by Terminal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quilp Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Anyone know, has a change.org petition been raised in support of Petersgate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not seen one...but...as I have said before, if there were one it would need to be one based on conciliation. The dangers of setting up a simply pro Stu Peters petition are obvious to me. We would want all people to sign, including many who signed the other petition? Edited June 12, 2020 by Albert Tatlock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The march has happened and yet you still try to deny these people the right to speak and demonstrate their their desires for Racial Equality with your nit picking responses! I am not talking about the march. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the outcome will be the traditional Manx solution of "lessons have been learnt, lets move on." Jordon's speech seems to offer that olive branch. Although I do hope that Stu gets away with a reprimand and returns with a less confrontational approach, I couldn't sign a petition demanding that without some sort of apology or acknowledgement that mistakes have been made. I hope when conciliation is needed PK isn't his only adviser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxman1980 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I see Nigel Farage compared the BLM protesters to the Taliban on live TV this week. LBC have since announced that his show is being cancelled as his contract is ending. Perhaps there is an opening for Stu to become a host at LBC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holte End Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Why do the news team try to make the MHK's look stupid.

I hope when conciliation is needed PK isn't his only adviser. Ir didn't take me long to realise that the only way to deal with bullying is to match it head-on. It also didn't take me long to realise that music bores really are the very worst kind.... There have been some really nasty comments made about Stu and change.org and personally I wouldn't let something like that go unchallenged. However Mr Peters is very much his own man and he will do what suits him I'm sure... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe give Jordan and Lucy a chance to apologise as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said far more than that about BLM and their stated aims, most of it true according to their own publicity. It puts Stu's imagined mistakes into perspective. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolley Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I'm never in favour of mealy mouthed apologies. They are never sincere. Certainly wouldn't apologise having done nothing wrong. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Onchan Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Woke up this morning to read that UKTV has banned the Fawlty Towers episode of The Germans. The world has gone fucking bonkers. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More perspective when you look at the removal of The Fawlty Towers "The Germans" episode from UKTV and the reasons why, then compare that with anything that Stu Peters said. Good thing there aren't any statues of John Cleese btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
