Unlike you and the rest of the "Do what the CI's are doing whether it's appropriate or not.." brigade I do not have a very very tedious axe to grind. So why would I contact my MHK? It's like Banker's (SP?) moan above about the expanding flights to the CI's etc etc which is simply that the carriers know that the CI's have nice weather hence a viable tourist industry so they will get bums on seats. What Banker expects IOMG to do about that God only knows. The words " pissing in the wind" come to mind here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact is that they and we are comparable in a lot of ways and they have made a much better job of this than our idiots have. Have you watched their briefings vs ours? It is embarrassing. Did you see how quickly they started vaccinating? Have you seen how many second jabs they have done? Have you seen how busy their hotels are? Have you seen how full their morgues are because of their heinous decision to open up a couple of weeks ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the shameful Dr Glover episode, the fortnight vaccination hiatus and the Indian Variant being so-called because it originated in India, among others, has not shown IOMG in a very good light. But then I thought with a complete and utter lack of leadership they were always going to struggle. As to media briefings I don't care if they are put together by Saatchi & Saatchi or the Chuckle Brothers as long as they have accurate data and get the message across. Anyway I'm manx so to me what the CI's get up to is a complete irrelevance.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanShimmin Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 So what's the legal situation for denying people their travel in the Common Travel Area? We're no longer in an emergency, the covid is now endemic rather than a UK pandemic. It would be good to see this challenged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chief Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Already called it this week, they will defer citing the Delta variant as a desperate pretext to try and keep us bottled up for another month so we can't all fuck off and spend our hoarded billions anywhere except this dump and the bigger dump next door. They are going to look like proper dicks if they extend the border controls when by all accounts the boat is getting full for every sailing over the summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanShimmin Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Anyway, how is Ashy planning a 'complex logistical exercise' to give booster jabs when there is no official concensus on booster jabs? People are still going to be turning 18 and may want a jab? There's also the possibility that over 12s will be vaccinated. I'm not sure any contry on earth is planning to end their primary vaccination programme. But then no other county took a 2 week vaccination holiday. https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/revaccination-complex-logisitical-exercise-says-minister/ Manx solutions for Manx (created) problems too the extreme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
