Holte End Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 If there is a cold snap in the next month, Onchan could be down to three candidates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramseyboi Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 7 hours ago, Lightening McQueen said: Another candidate, Mr C will have to try harder now, as throwing his toys out of the pram hasn't worked! OBJECTION TO CANDIDATE REJECTED BY RETURNING OFFICER Candidate for the House of Keys Rob Callister objected to the nomination of Peter Willers who is also a candidate in the constituency of Onchan. Apparently Mr Callister objected because Mr Willers had not announced his candidature prior to the last day of nominations 25th August. The returning officer rejected Mr Callister’s objection and Mr Willers is therefore a legitimate candidate for election. Is this for real? He objected because someone declared just before the cutoff (same has happened in Ramsey). Please tell me he didn’t really object to a hit of very poor competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely he has zero pull with the people of onchan? Shame David Quirk didn't run, Rob would have been really worried then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they just hate the ex LV candidate so much that they’ll do anything to try to pull the rug from under her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more concerned with the point that it doesn't matter when you declare, your expenses are considered to start a year before election day. Rob never saw a hole that didn't make him want to get out his spade. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A former MHK who can’t interpret a very simple document and applying for his old job back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe he has some professional dealings, from his previous employment? In a way by objecting, RC is coming across as a bullying self serving establishment figure, self entitled with a divine right to rule Onchan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banker Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Apparently Cherry has posted a fake video purportedly of John Bercow supporting his campaign, what a dick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Well it’s not fake. It’s one of those videos where you pay a minor celeb to send you a message. And Bercow’s is more of a pep talk wishing him good luck IF James is from the democratic centre, and committed to public service than an endorsement. https://fb.watch/7DOmtl6H5G/ Pretty amusing though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean it’s one of those videos you pay a celebrity for. He actually paid someone to endorse him in a video. There must be laws against that as there must be some idiots somewhere who thought it was a genuine endorsement from Bercow not something the sad case paid to have sent to himself.

I don't think Bercow did endorse him, he's surely not that stupid or skint that he needs to endorse random candidates for money. He doesn't say "Everybody should vote for James", he just wished him well. Also Bercow probably didn't intend it for public use. I imagine it would be like Mummy and Daddy paying Brian Cox to send a message to Junior before his Physics exam wishing him good luck. Brian wouldn't expect Junior to just submit the message on the exam paper with the words "Brian Cox thinks I'm a top Physikist" Doesn't reflect well on Bercow though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
