ian rush Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 From memory didn’t he resign from DfE around the same time the 100k population and no work permits policy was approved by Council of Ministers - he’d have had to have driven it, never mind being collectively responsible.

Ah, Tim the man who gave us th he RingGo App for our own good because it would cost £250,000 to fix the barriers at the airport. What a total pack of lies that was. I wouldn't trust a word he said. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred the shred Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 I thought they actually purchased the wrong sort of gates, weren’t the ones they got only suitable for indoors or the wrong size ? I wonder what happened to them. The only solution with regards to the DOI is to break it up into smaller departments it just covers too much but this would have to be a decision made by Tynwald I would imagine. Putting Tim back in charge really gives rise to ridicule if he couldn’t make any sort of progress last time what has changed in the last year or was it even that long. I think others have turned down this position before Tim was offered it it smacks of last resort job to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While there were undoubtedly civil servants doing some good things during covid lockdown (administering support payments for example) I look at some of the crazy things that have come out of the CS recently and wonder if most of them derived from bored civil servants stuck at home doing some 'blue sky thinking' as they literally had nothing to do. Love IOM, TT changes, concessionary bus travel, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
