They voted for a bloke who got paid to b3 children’s champion but didn’t actually understand the role, he will ride the gravy train and Onchan will keep joining with Douglas until it disappears. But he topped the poll, not a sloppy second, was really my point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good. Glad some people can see through his bullshit 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the stinking enigma Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Top 5 pound for pounder. I can taste the salty tears of his obsessive denouncers, reduced again to trawling his social media for titbits to be outraged about. Popular people will alway attract h8ters 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the stinking enigma Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Yep. Thats generally what pound for pound means. What is undisputed though is that rob remains an undefeated top 5 pound for pound politician, on course for the hall of fame i'd say 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinkydevil Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 FFS Rob! What happened? I'm £100 lighter as I had you down for Chief Minister. I sort of feel you owe me that money now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2112 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 If he gets any Departmental role it’s either Starship Enterprise - where he proceed to screw up next years TT. Spend lots of Taxpayers cash on a new pointless temporary TT scoreboard. And he can be Tim’s Right Hand Man, and actually stay awake at the Promenade Committee meetings. Or if there’s any justice in the world ………….. Chair of the Office of Fair Trading. Let’s see how he handles Manx Gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously Alf Cannan rates him less than Tim Crookall. I wonder what RC has done to upset Alf? Would love to see his thoughts of rejection in his weekly blog.

David Quirk was, well, David Quirk; and Perkins confessed that he hadn't actually read the legislation he was putting through "I'm not a details man". Both were rightly binned but probably not because they were chairman of the OFT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
