Pat Ayres Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I have noticed posters going up all over this week. I have also noticed a lot are posted illegally. If I were to take them down I could not be busted as they are illegal in the first place. Should I do it? The illegal sites are such as railings; lampposts; council notice boards; hedges; walls. These are 'commonly owned property under the control of a local authority' and should not be posted. The lawbreakers in Ramsey are; Allan Bell Anne Craine Leonard Singer. Also, is LS allowed to use a symbol on his poster without registering it with the authorities? What, and who, are the illegal posters in your town?

Alias Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 In Middle, had 2 people postering on land. Martyn Quayle asked, Kate Beecroft just placed hers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyboarder Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 The vanity of these gormless mugshots (Onchan in this case) staring me in the face at many junctions has cost them all my vote. Why on earth do these people think a picture of them will clinch it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I love, (i.e. hate), the Anne Craine ones in Ramsey, (which I am getting heartily fucking sick of the sight of) - IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE - VOTE ANNE CRAINE! I'm not sure I like the implication, y'know, that even simple-minded fuckers like the common electorate (of which I am part) can work out that Anne Craine is the person to vote for. Or maybe it's trying to say that voting for Anne Craine being the right thing to do is a fundamental truth that everyone realises, hence it not being rocket science - but that's just really fucking arrogant. Either way, I don't like it, so I'm going to vote for Bell and Singer - although they wouldn't be my first choices if we had some alternative candidates standing. "Tough on commonsense and the causes of commonsense" might be a better slogan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amadeus Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I'm sure there are some 'illegal' ones in south - it's absolute poster overkill around here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE - VOTE ANNE CRAINE! Maybe she's afraid of being mistaken for Marc Riley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I'm sure there are some 'illegal' ones in south - it's absolute poster overkill around here... Aye, I've noticed that. Of the three constituencies I go through on the way to work - Rushen - I've seen one. A tiny one from Quintin Gill, so small he's been reduced to just including his initials. Malew - Only had a couple of descreet one's from the Cap'n. But over the weekend some woman has gone mad her name is everywhere, including home made ones. South Douglas - Has been madness for a while now. Particularly, like the three terrace houses in a row between the Quay and Kewaigue (Fort Anne?) showing posters for three different candidates (Mr Cretney, Mr Butch, and Mr Real-Changeim). One suspects war is about to break out down there, perhaps thats why Kermode is wearing some sort of quasi-military regalia in his posters. Also seen a few car stickers from the alliteratedly named Mr Henderson-Haughton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven ! Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I think when Amadeus uses the word 'south' he means Douglas South. Not that place down there over the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven ! Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Actually it's 'Captain' Malpass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I know he is a captain but he's not declared himself as such in his manifesto - unlike 'Captain' Douglas did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I got that thanks, hence my inclusion of that unlucky constituency in my earlier post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously haven't been to Pulrose, Anagh Coar or Farmhill yet - posters on every corner and in between. If there should be a war, it's gonna be up there, not down here.. Haven't even put any out on the streets yet - am waiting until people get bored of pulling or kicking them down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
