Very unedifying, for a senior politician to be using social media to conduct himself. He should be addressing his rebuttals to the voters and taxpayers. Whatever comes out of Ashies mouth I don’t believe. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading those comments you have to wonder if he had a bit of the old vino last night. His clearly mental mate isn’t helping him either.

2112 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 It’s really rather galling, that Ashie had the temerity to take a salary for another job, especially when many people on the island couldn’t claim or were rejected outright. Being a politician has obviously been Ashies greatest career move, great for someone with great redeeming features and zero personality. As I said before, this ‘register’ will throw out more unpleasant surprises before long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cissolt Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Interesting comments on Facebook, so the listing as a director of walkabout limited was incorrect on the members register? I guess someone will pay for the company registration details to see if that's true! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had explained what it was for and how much. I can't find that now, but from memory it was for some bookkeeping and was a relatively small amount. I am not sure it is the whiffy arrangement some think it is. Sounded like he was doing the company a bit of a favour. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was book keeping, Ashie should have just done the press statement & left it at that & ask any of his constituents to contact him directly if they had concerns 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should focus on the day job, not sidelines. Even if he was helping them out by doing some work and receiving a salary, some would say that he was involved with the business, regardless of whether he was a director or not.

Well, yes, but that isn’t what is being debated now. As I said, it sounded like he was doing them a favour and he said he did the work in his own time at weekends. I am no fan of Ashie, but this looks like it is a bit of a sideshow really. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where the issue is really. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
