  1. Why? There are two link spans. Manage it in the summer with manannan and Arrow at times.
  2. No. We have a purpose built, perfect covered area with toilets, waiting area, welcome centre, WHSmith and Costa at the Seaterminal that is begging to be used.
  3. Thing is, it would probably cost more to process and produce the FOI than the leaflets cost in the first place. FOI is a Complete waste of money.

    Digital ID

    Or just use the fake ID you have been using for months.
  5. Quite funny really. British wine is expensive compared with most of its competitors. The answer is to sell it in smaller bottles (most likely for the same price as the competitor’s full bottle). Shrinkflation at its finest!

    RingGo

    There is one easy answer. Put the barrier and machines back. Takings are way down since Ringo. Needs to be scrapped and returned to the system that worked and was cost effective.
  7. Manxman, if cancelled, will bedue to “Woke” health and safety rules. No worries about Arrow.
  8. Should have built the new school in ballasalla where the new housing estate is, and then knocked down the old castle Rushen and built the houses there. It was suggested at the time, as Castletown has the shops, pubs and infrastructure required for houses, Ballasalla doesn’t. Schools don’t need it. Simple common sense.

    What’s the point? Just make buses free! People would use them then. Free up parking in town. Take loads of cars off the road. Less drug driving. Less congestion. No administration and accounting of fares. No brainer really. I am surprised government has not thought of it.
  10. Then is was a very frenzied attack for something with little or no motive, according to you. She was stabbed at least 28 times.
  11. Yes they work great, but cost a lot to run. More than straight forward electric heaters.
  12. Well, more people voted for brexit than voted for the current government. Or the previous one. And, the only thing wrong with brexit is the current shambles that it the uk government.
  13. More than you think. Why do you think so many europeans vacated uk when the benefits gravy train stopped?
  14. Woke definition! It is rubbish. Your made up definition basically means EVERYONE is a racist!
  15. Bollocks! It is nothing to do with demonyms
  16. The other way around. Fly / drive the sick person to uk and take them to hospital. More realist situations were bring pregnant woman to uk to have “British “ baby, for benefit purposes.
  17. I am not so keen on the French either, but they are the same race, so it is not racism.
  18. Being against unfettered immigration does not make one racist. Is being Polish a different race? French? German? It has nothing to do with race. However, it has everything to do with someone from Poland working in the uk and claiming benefits for his whole family who live in Poland, and have never contributed to uk society. Much higher rates than are paid in Poland. When they got sick, they got free treatment on the NHS. UK pensions, everything, without even living here. Is that racism? No. Ethnicity has nothing to do with it. So stop calling it racism!
  19. But have they? All the media is talking about is rubber boats of illegal immigrants, numbering a few tens of thousands a year, which serves for nothing but winding people up. At the same time, legal immigration from mainly outside the EU, numbers hundreds of thousands a year. This is kept rather quiet by comparison, but these people are needed and welcomed, to do the jobs the British cannot be arsed to do. Someone has to pay the taxes to support the cost of benefits Britain!
  20. The thing is, with LED lighting, each light can put out multiple colours. Therefore, much less lighting is actually required, so it is relatively cheap. Loudspeaker technology has not really changed, so not a lot really required there. Modern amplification is Class “D”, which is cheap compared to the Class “AB” of 20 years ago. Wireless microphone systems are quite expensive, I’ll admit, but not eye watering. So, where is the 1.6 million going?
  21. Big, decent shows always have their own lights and sound. Any changes made will not impact really big shows.
  22. That is roughly double the low rate tariff over copper. I only have my land line for two reasons. Firstly, many people know the number as I have had it for nearly four decades. Secondly, regardless of where my mobile is, I know exactly where my land line phone is in case of an emergency. If I cannot keep my number, there is even less reason to have a land line. If they come to install fibre to my house, they can do so to the box outside. Not required inside.
  23. The problem with 20mph zones on iom is that they are not patrolled and the limits not enforced. That was straight from the horses mouth. I asked. So, I live on a close, 20mph, but the speed of some of the vehicles is astounding. May as well stick the no limits sign up!

    Biosphere!

    This government can absolutely bankrupt our island, and it will make absolutely no difference to anybody’s future. Tractor run was brilliant!
