If anyone wants a full explanation or feels someone should be held accountable then write a letter to your MHK, write a letter to the department responsible, start a petition, there are many ways to make your voice heard, but doing it at a live press conference and trying to put someone on the spot is probably one of the worst. It would only be filed in the Ashy shredder! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the field of genomics on the Isle of Man she's fairly unique. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the opposite, in fact. You may disagree with her opinion, or you may disagree with how she expresses it. But don't say things that aren't really true. Given her "spat" it's unsurprising that she's taking her chance to say she told them so. It's a shame the BBC press conference attendee isn't so robust when they get the chance to ask HQ directly. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just childish to be honest. She did explain to me in a PM and I do admire her for her qualifications, but publicly washing your laundry is not quite cricket. I have no personal issue with her as I have told her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect you'd have a completely different attitude to an avoidable lockdown if your business was forced to close or you'd just lost your job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
