GreyWolf Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 He’s spelt Haywood’s name wrong on that letter, she’ll not like that. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbnuts Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 (edited) To be fair have said before I feel sorry for Rob but for sure he doesnt do himself any favours. Dont think he's a bad person though and despite me giving him a hard time I just wonder is this issue with him getting sacked has anything to do with possible him standing up to the long standing mentality of the CS . Maybe he rattled the cages , and god do they need it , and they have closed ranks to protect there cosy life and job. ? Of course the other MHK's and MLC are going to toe the party line. Just a theory that maybe has no mileage but possible would explain a lot . Edited November 17, 2022 by Numbnuts 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it's an easy mistake for a Manx person to make - what with the Heywoods of the Nunnery - but you'd think that the Chief Minister writing to a Tynwald Committee would be able to get the name of a Tynwald member correct over a year after she was elected. You'd also think that someone in the Chief Secretary's Office would have spotted it if nothing else. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annex 5 is a rather odd insertion of some 2016 advice John Quinn gave about Tynwald members not acting as lawyers on behalf of constituents. Or indeed offering any advice at all. It's probably not relevant here and is an just an expansion of what is in Annex 4 in any case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of me agrees, but then another part of me thinks who do we end with instead and do we really want the whole of government disrupted and distracted again looking for a replacement who realistically won’t be any different. We voted them in. Maybe it’s time to just let them crack on without a load of distractions and do the best they can? What’s the alternative with four more years before another election?

Last Ten Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 I have a real desire to be able to Photoshop all these characters together in a picture with the grim reaper and knives being drawn by certain members, and the Chief Minister on the floor begging for forgiveness from Rob 🤣🤣 OK it won't happen but what a total disaster is this Government.

It's quickly become as bad or worse than the Quayle regime. And that was really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
