Here is Manx Radio's report of the press statement:

https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/new-regulations-drafted-to-modernise-health-services-consultative-committee/

And here are some interesting bits in the video:

5:26 to 7:51

9:58 to 12:29

15:28 to 16:32

Rants, bullying, oversight committees being eliminated. Just another day.

Seems to be a running theme about Laurie  Hooper, not the first time we have heard he is a ranting bully.  Time Ramsey voters got rid of him

Hooper can't take criticism but is more than happy to criticise others. See his childish responses to Callister on Twitter. However it does seem it wasn't just him to blame.

He was £8M over budget and coming back to Tynwald for more money when he was proudly displaying his new FCA certificate on Twitter the other week. He can’t even be a good accountant either.

Yes it makes you wonder how much Callister being dumped was because of August-Hanson stirring things up.  Of course Cannan's inability to control the situation was part of it as well, but she and Hooper clearly share the belief that they should be completely in charge without the slightest criticism ever being made.  Of course they don't have the faintest idea what to do when they are in charge, but their control must be absolute.

 But the changes they want to bring in where this committee are concerned, are against the law. So how can they push the reforms through? 

They'll just try to carry them out and hope the usual government unwillingness to call out wrong-doing by civil service will carry them through.  After all that's what they did with Ranson and look how well that went.

They can just change the law.

Only Tynwald can change laws and this may even need to go through the primary legislation route, so there will be more scrutiny.  What they certainly can't do is change the law via a press release, which is what they seem to be trying.

It's unlikely that a few patients with limited experience of the health service will challenge the executive as this Committee does.

Hooper has openly accused him of “misrepresentation” on Twitter this afternoon. So he’s clearly doing his usual thing of listening to nobody and accepting nothing that he doesn’t want to hear.
