Someone is pulling his strings and they have both perhaps misjudged that things are different now. I too, would like him to consolidate his legacy but I fear he may end up a laughing stock. I do hope not. Haven't other people always pulled his strings? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure there’s no conspiracy and that the DOI probably removed it for safety reasons after someone moaned their view from the junction was blocked. A Ms Edge of Onchan rang the DoI to report the banner purely on safety grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

code99 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Julie Edge frequently gets the 'hairdryer treatment' on MF, but in reality, her contribution to the Manx politics has been mostly constructive, in my opinion at least. I am not in her constituency, but I hope she will be re-elected. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Caine is similar and Claire Barber. There’s so many lazy narcissistic men who have got away with literally nothing but meaningless granny farming while the women have had to work ten times harder to get taken seriously. It’s good to see they’re now moving on. The gender balance in the next parliament is likely to be even higher too. And hopefully the gender balance in CoMin will be higher (balanced?) too. Well, it can’t be any worse. Be interesting to see if the female politicians in Mininsterial roles can use their energy to drive change where the last lot have failed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katman Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 No real surprise in the results for Onchan. Cherry was seen as immature, Willers had too much baggage and Leather was a no hoper from the start. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
