VinnieK Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 So Onchan has - Vader - http://election.manxradio.com/news/news-item?newsitem=52968&newstitle=Candidate%20criticises%20government's%20priorities Heaven help them! That's Vader?! That is magnificent. If we can't have proper politics we may as well go the other route and go for sheer comedy value, and with this Onchan is rapidly consolidating its longstanding position as the Island's most hilarious constituency. Any nominations for the Island's most depressing constituency? Glenfaba must rank pretty low with the choice so far being limited to Anderson and the Mayor of Sandgate.

Slim Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Hes doing his campaign online so u can ask him a question or say what u want. better than going around knocking on doors cos nobody want listen when they are eating there tea watching eastenders. Oooh, where? I miss those days when Vader was still on the forums posting under his old name. He's still here of course, but definitely moderates himself. On the subject of crime: "I have my own form of re-habilitation. It is a form of shock therapy and much cheaper. It is a small piece of metal travelling at about 500mph out of the barrel of a gun. Believe me it works. They do not re-offend." "You can have as many damned committees as you like to blah blah blah but at the end of the day talking will achieve nothing. Proper painful punishment will." "Jesus Christ, the way things are going is we are ultimately creating a generation to come of terrorists!" "Tynwald is a complete and utter joke. A Mickey Mouse Parliament a thousand years past its sell by date" "Islamic people tell there daughters that if you do not marry the man we have chosen for you then you will be killed. It is called family honour killing." "For Christs sake when will all you politically correct people realise that ISLAM is an evil culture and should be a proscribed organisation in Britain just like the Nazi party?" I don't know if Vader is the candidate for Onchan, I've no idea who he is. The suggestion above that he is just reminded me of the old threads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theodolite Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Our Vader doesn't learn though, does he, still sticking a bit of a blunt knife into manxforums. Rog is in there too. With sugarbee. Add a bit of Nessa and steven and there's just about the full set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yes, fear the dardskide of teh force... Sorry James, I couldn't resist. Oh yeah and bumsex bumsex bumsex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesemonster2005 Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Onchan needs people who aren't afraid to ask questions and be different. Karran is definitely the right kind of person. James Corrin may fit the bill too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theodolite Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 vader or Quirky?.......vader or Quirky? hmmm, vader it is I'm afraid. I tried the same conundrum with 'vader or Malarkey' and Vader won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Corrin may fit the bill too As if one person opposing everything wasn't bad enough. Wasn't it Peter Karran who wanted members of the new scrutiny committees to get a 50% uplift? What Onchan needs are people who can formulate coherant solutions to the problems we face. If these are the candidates I have to choose from so far, I'm annoyed there isn't going to be a "None of the above" option on the ballot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone can can say no, we need people who can come up with some answers, not just deride others efforts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one and only Administrator Hero Member I'm loving this shit. "We all enjoy a bit of controversy. Some enjoy it more than others. We don't ban people for controversial topics, nor do we edit posts that are controversial. Use your head, don't be abusive, and anything goes. That's our policy, and we're sticking to it." Anything goes? Ace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
