The truth hurts so they’ll look for payback by scuppering his Presidential ambitions. He still looks favourite however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Watterson gets it there will be a full sweep of change in Rushen - interesting changes afoot down South and you'd think Kemp and Scampi should be eyeing up the opportunity after 2016 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been fairly active throughout covid and I think would comfortably have enough support. Not heard a peep out of Scampi so would guess he's not in the running this time. Haywood is a weird one. She seems to have positioned herself quite well over the last few years but the Manxonia stuff doesn't look good for her. Hoping for a few more candidates in the next couple of weeks. Comedy ones especially appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
