The summary will more than likely be that the government were trying to act in the best interests of everyone, made a few mistakes as they were not prepared for a pandemic and followed the UK, believing that they had things in hand with a well rehearsed action plan. It's all hindsight as at the time, nobody had a clue what was happening and how serious or otherwise Covid was. The main lesson to be learned from this is, have a suite of actions planned for serious incidents and world events. I always thought that we did, now I realise we don't. I wonder how we'll cope when the UK is blown to smithereens, which is a possibility!

The "Gatekeepers" spitting the dummy/s? You have to remember around that time your MHKs were still saying the TT would be on as normal. That is delusional behaviour of the highest kind, and they kept saying you did not have Covid on the rock, when you quite clearly did, because no one had tested positive. Howie caught it about the same time as our Boris did but he must of had an early Manx Variant because, other than stopping him reading out stuff badly every evening, he did not seem to have any other symptoms 🙂 Edited November 7, 2023 by Blade Runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moulton is just a poor man's journo. Edited for accuracy. He'll never make a good journalist because he lacks the intelligence to ask that killer question.

Kipper99 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I’ve some FoI questions. 1. is Moulton a journalist? Or is it something he does to fill the time now he doesn’t DJ or present radio programmes? 2. is he an investigative journalist? 3. does he have an editor or someone overseeing his output? 4. should he have an editor or oversight? 5. has he fallen down a rabbit hole of paranoia and conspiracy? 6. is he capable of rational discussion of these issues or is he too wrapped up in himself? 7. who should I believe, Brunner KC who has no axe to grind or Moulton?

Two-lane Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I think that ManxForumers are being unduly critical of Moulton. For instance, criticising him for concentrating on the weekend of 13-15 March 2020. This is from Brunner: " That is a general plea, but in particular, I request : (ii) that journalists delay investigation into what happened in relation to Government decision-making over the weekend of 13-15 March 2020 until after I have reported." Therefore she also thinks the events that weekend are important. In a recent press release she stated: "For the sake of clarity, when I spoke to Mr Moulton I did not suggest the Review was in danger of collapsing, nor have I ever done so. " This is her earlier statement: " Recent events and associated social media commentary have made a number of people express concerns about participating in the Review, or withdraw participation, or request legal representation (which is not permitted). " In other words, she is concerned that Moulton publishing information will affect, hinder, compromise, impede the Review - but any word other than "collapse". I still do not understand how Moulton publishing data will prevent people from attending the review. If they are concerned they they can be identified, they will know that Moulton will publish after the review is released. And as far as Mouton is concerned, in the words of some Hollywood film: "He's the best of what's left". 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
