2112 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 I see the lead story on the Nations Propaganda Mouthpiece this morning is the Red Arrows. I can only guess that this little treat will cost a large amount of taxpayers cash, both in terms of the cost of putting on a Red Arrows display, and the other costs associated, which will no doubt require the Police, Fire Service, Ambulance and Air Traffic Control assistance, and also I’m sure the DOI will be involved. Granted funding has come out of the Domestic Events Fund. As a Nations Propaganda Mouthpiece which is constantly banging on about Climate Change is it really appropriate for the skies over Douglas to be polluted? How does this sit with Biosphere? Perhaps the monies used could have been allocated to poor vulnerable starving Manx Children to put food in their bellies during the Summer Holiday? If we are really serious as to Climate Change we to consider scrapping the TT and other events which pollute the environment. Hard decisions lie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 The red arrows are to reward the plebs for volunteering to take part in the vaccine trials. I'd have asked for 8-10 billion myself, they are aware of this and this is the sole reason i have never been awarded an mbe as yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

British Empire honours are so discredited ( they give them to anyone nowadays ) that they probably do have to pay people to accept nomination. But I’d say you’re a little over optimistic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think so. The red arrows are how the vaccine chips get activated, through their chem trails and a high frequency modulated EM pulse (I got this bit from watching Star Trek - do your own research people) they emit when they loop the loop. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DOI propaganda mouthpiece tried to justify it by saying he hoped people would stay in Douglas afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barlow Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) The Red Arrows will provide a much needed exciting interlude into what has been a relatively mundane 18 months for many people on the Island. The weather is fantastic and it will be a great afternoon. Rock On the Red Arrows Edited August 28, 2021 by Barlow 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, it is all making sense now! That's why we are all magnetised, so they can target their modulated EM pulses! How have we been so blind? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is precisely why i shall only be listening to this display via 1368 medium wave. I'd urge all other sane people to do the same. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd urge all other sane people to do the same. Actually a good point. And you will note that they don't just go to Douglas during their display and as well as covering other parts of the Island they take off from Blackpool and do a bit of a 'circuit'. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realise that it won't take too many 'displays' to cover the whole of the UK. Coincidence? I don't think so.

It was just fantastic, beautiful day, gorgeous views with the boats in the bay and breathtaking manoeuvres. Thank you MR, IFGL and the Domestic Events Fund. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
