Barbara is now head of external affairs.

Quite wrong and what musings did I make? My only mistake seems to have been to engage with one poster who clearly has issues and who I had blocked. This forum really is an absolutely hideous place full of some thoroughly horrible and disturbed individuals.

It’s not here we go at all. I see the forum has a blocking function which will greatly enhance my user experience. Bye.

Don’t worry I won’t make a habit of it this forum is a horrible place full of some very horrible and disturbed posters. Even the MHKs who contribute seem to be fairly awful. No wonder it looks like only three people regularly post here.

There’s only one loony here mate 👍 Things were fine when I was interacting with others posters before you started with all the crackers responses at get attention,

There’s you sounding like a dick again 👍

Sounds like you work for Douglas Council who said the same thing about the bin petition. Who is “we” who claim to know anything about anyone’s actual status other than a clearly deranged man on an irrelevant local forum read by about 10 people?

Why are you on this forum if you don’t want feedback from anonymous keyboard warriors? That seems to be the entire purpose of this forum. If you don’t like it don’t post.

This house is so incredibly poor they can’t even organize a vote of no confidence. Presumably as they have no confidence that any of them could run anything any better. They are literally hopeless. A General Election around now would be very beneficial.

You either seem to have problems with alcohol or serious mental health issues. Either way you are clearly not a serious poster on this forum. Just some idiot whose semi lucid ramblings seem to make up 75% of this forums content. And you accuse me of deflection.

Has the nurse arrived to tuck you up?

There was no attempt at deflection. You seem from your posting history to have serious issues. I’m honestly not interested in continuing dialogue with you on that basis.

🥲

I’m guessing you're over 65.

They are all real names if you flick through. In fact in this debate you seem to be the only fake name protesting about real people apparently saying what they think.

Not really. Are you scared of change? Surely this forum should be the very bastion of calls for change?

To be honest I think as an MHK you're a total dick. And all the above basically proves that you’re a total dick.

When I voted it just asked me to share. It didn’t ask for money.

It’s over 600 now. And that seems to be from a standing start this morning so in less than 24 hours so far. Surprised it hasn’t had more coverage on here but Twitter and Facebook seem to be very active and I’ve had three WhatsApp’s in the last two hours from friends sending me the link to share. It does seem to have engaged a lot of people very quickly.

Zing .. insulted by this forums dumbest poster. The shame.

To be fair many of the comments people have openly made on there are actually very similar. It looks like most people have had enough of a government that’s all for itself and doesn’t care about anyone else and which doesn’t have any intention of reducing either its costs or its size. 500 people (so far) can’t be wrong. Thats more people than will likely comment on here in six months looking at how slow things are. Unlike here they all seem to be registering their opinion under their own names too.

So the post office and the DOi. So you oversee two areas of government which constantly struggle to see which can be the provider of the worst service for the most headcount cost.

So what are the MHKs doing in between not passing any legislation?

It looks like there is an online poll been started now anyway.

The tax office is the last bastion of common sense. When that goes it’s over.
