Why are they trying to save Newsons it is an old building…yes but if they knocked it down the Saddle would come into its own and it is an old building which provides fun and frivolity to many 😊

Anybody with any sense would drop both buildings 😂

That would leave the Manx Taxpayers Alliance homeless. Which actually might not be a bad decision. 

There's an old phone booth nearby they can move into.

Oooh another coffee shop and punch-up bar.   

Better than a falling over derelict eyesore.

Fresh plans which looks pretty good IMHO & should be approved

Lets bloody well hope so.

Although - Some crazy "Save Newsoms" group will undoubtedly form. Maybe the same lot that campaigned against the 5G mast at Woodbourne Rd. Our gutless planners will defer to the noisy minority and reject it, leaving another derelict eyesore (and a terrible phone signal) in our otherwise magnificent capital.

5G mast? The mast was not 5G. Planners did not reject. Appeal was successful based on legal arguments.

Legal arguements? 

I apologise if I was wrong about 5G. 

So it was nothing to do with the noisy majority then. That's interesting.

Why then, in terms that actually mean something, was it rejected? Please don't say legal arguements. That is meaningless to me. Where is a mast that gives your constituents a phone signal going to be placed that does not fall foul of legal arguments?
