Wann Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Sounded ok on Manx Radio Mandate this morning. Better than these that have bragged what they have done and what they are going to do and what they stand for etc. Which in the model of Tynwald means bugger all. What those types are really doing are making themselves out to be nice enough to have your vote so they can go on a 5 year ego trip and be important and get some easy money and pension and be part of "the best club in the world"*. *quote from former President of Tynwald Noel Cringle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wann Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 The Listen Again is up now on the Manx Radio website for anyone who is interested. Manx Radio 42 minutes in. I'm not sure Amy Burns would be my first choice but I know she certainly would not be my last choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just surprised that Buster isn't amongst them as that would raise a few eyebrows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Keys candidate Amy Burns has refuted allegations and inferences made on Manx Forums website by cowardly anonymous posters that she is connected politically with David Cretney who has been elevated to the Legislative Council. He's obsessed with the anonymous cowards on Manx Forums. Actually James it had nothing to do with Manx Forums at all if you had posted the whole status I was replying to a question someone sent me in private message. He was happy enough to post anonymously on here, until he got banned. At the time he was the loudest voice here making personal attacks on people in the public eye. Admittedly, he'd seem run of the mill now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sausages Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I noticed the only person who 'liked' his post on Facebook calling the users of Manx Forums anonymous cowards went by the name of Tame Elfie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinkydevil Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I noticed the only person who 'liked' his post on Facebook calling the users of Manx Forums anonymous cowards went by the name of Tame Elfie. IT'S A CONSPIRACY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanxfella Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I noticed the only person who 'liked' his post on Facebook calling the users of Manx Forums anonymous cowards went by the name of Tame Elfie. Odd that he doesn't seem to like people using pseudonym's when he won't use his real legal name on a daily basis so that the government allegedly has no control over him.

JessTickle Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I have now listened to the interview - I'm sorry Wann but you and I must have listened to a different interview, to me she had nothing of substance to say. She has now changed her LinkedIn profile to show that she actually stopped working for Poker stars in 2011 rather than 2015. One thing that does confuse me is that the same profile claims she worked for Online Casino's from 2011 to April 2015. (I have a copy of the newly updated profile too) Her husband claimed only a couple of months ago (I think a screen print of which is available on this thread) that she earns more money through her job than an MHK So why did she say on the radio this morning, when questioned about being a homemaker, that during the "past few years it was better for her to stay at home and raise my child than not be there full time" I have no problem with stay at home mums I have no problems with working mums I do have a problem when people don't tell the truth to suit their purposes though. Which is it Amy? Which is correct - your LinkedIn profile or your claim that you are a homemaker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wann Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 OK, fair enough. I will just have to stand by remark that she wouldn't be my last choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebees Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Do people really believe anything they read on Linkedin? Really? Oh I am off to make myself one, what will I be? A rocket scientist? Director? Movie star? Oh the fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Tatlock Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 LinkedIn is generally more professional. But as with many social media sites containing millions...you get nutters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
