Personally I think Julie Edge does a good job holding ministers to account when many others like Perkins say nothing If Peter stands again Onchan will get rid of RC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you suggesting the media piece is for him to announce that he is not standing? Or that the piece, whatever it’s subject would lead you to that conclusion? Either way, if true, that would be a sad loss given the way he and the rest of the team has led us through this pandemic. Hopefully your suspicions are groundless 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard a rumour Peter Karran was to stand again. Whilst I assume this isn't true, if he does then the slim chance Julie Edge had of getting back in will turn to absolutely no chance. Fingers crossed that Quayle stands down. I saw Peter Karran and that Josem bloke in Costa the other day.

His parliamentary pension would be suspended if he was drawing a parliamentary salary, as MHK or MLC “N1. - (1) Where a pensioner serves as a member of Tynwald the payment of any pension he is receiving shall be suspended for the duration of any period during which he is a member of Tynwald.” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
