gazza Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 What 3 problems were those? The Island is going to lose £100millions each year? There is a huge financial blackhole? There are a few thousand too many Civil Servants and as many swanning round the world on their huge pensions paid by us? Aye, Creg is your man. you do have a vary good point Then again as a postie everyone will know him so he's got a good chance, and i think the locals like hm as he has got a few things for malew for the town, which will sway votes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asitis Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Maybe a nice chap but naive in dealing with business people and has consistently voted with the CM, not really fit for purpose has been a part of the weakest administration in living memory and never done a thing to question what is happening ! all in all another snout in the trough, good for old ladies and kissing babies.

gazza Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 We have a contest! http://www.manxradio.com/newsread.aspx?id=53506 hmm 54, so if he gets in, that be a nice little retiment for him when he hits the big 60, sounds to me like hes going for the cash not to do the job.

So has he run his little tourist business since before he was fourteen, or has he done something else ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theodolite Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 When he was a teenager he seemed to spend his time bombing around Port Erin in his car. Rather aloof I would say. Apparently, his father advertised in the National press, a cure for piles. It was an ointment or something. There would be people from the UK arriving in Port Erin, shuffling maybe a bit, asking for Dr Hanson. He wasn't a doctor though. Malew and Santon needs a good candidate. Cregeen is a nice enough bloke (a distant relative to myself, no less) but with my hand on my heart I can say he is far more use to our society as a postman than a national politician.

And no, Not too many people will have heard about me, As i do not float in the circles of government, As this has been my first chance to do so. So any questions, I will be more than welcome to answer if i can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terse Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Who would you wish to see as CM? [N.B. If you say anything like "It depends who's available" you'll be seen as evasive and lose 100 votes.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_Kelly Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 None of the above. Meaning that I don't feel that any off the standing members should be CM. (That will be one bad mark on me now if I get in) None of them have leadership's quality's that could steer us out of the mess, because if they did then we would have seen that by now. But who knows out of Tony browns shadows there may be somebody that can spring to life and step up to the challenge, but on past performance none of them at this time. Does that count as evasive, It is not meant to be evasive , but that is my honest opinion of the people who can be elected of the CM role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
