2112 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Rob Callister has been all over Facebook especially IOMNP making public pronouncements, electricity prices are going up. That was obvious it would happen. My concern is his use of social media as a megaphone for his announcements, in his official capacity. Shouldn’t he set make the proposal, and then Tynpotwald discuss (rubber stamp) it and then vote? Be prepared for more gnashing of teeth, and handwringing especially from the ‘poor committee’ who say one thing but will vote yes for it.

SleepyJoe Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 Difficult decisions will be made in Tynwald where the in-house government support team that is LegCo can always be relied upon to vote the establishment line Those on the 'poor committee' who vote for electricity price increases should be publicly pilloried 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The emergency services were making clear to the community it was unsafe to be out and about we have an MHK failing to adhere to the advice forcing the services to attend an incident which any sensible person should and could have avoided.

2112 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 I’m afraid Rob Callister wouldn’t be made Minister for Silly Walks. Jason Moorehouse would be given the job. Minister in Waiting? The Last in Line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember if I mentioned it before, but did you hear Rob say that he believes renewable technology is 10-15 years away? Did he mean 10-15 miles offshore?

joebean Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Every time I see Rob Callister speak on a video, he seems to bring on an attack of Tourettes, which disappears immediately he stops. It's quite puzzling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s the only MHK who has got away with posting a picture of his bell-end on Facebook without getting suspended. Looks more like a gash?

Numbnuts Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I actually feel sorry for Rob. He's out of his depth but trying very hard not to be. Admirable if nothing else. His efforts on facebook to keep his name out there with the numerous information posts hes posting out is okay but not earth shattering. Very mundane stuff with no great significance . That sadly sums him up. Nice enough guy but ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all of them are on £183 a day while doing it tho. That thought alone helps me to not feel too sorry for him. But unemployed in 4.82 years.
