Filippo Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) The heading of my thread has been changed without asking me first! The original title was “ReOpen IOM (and hold our pathetic politicians accountable)” I would understand if the bit about politicians is removed, since it gives the thread an unfair advantage. Furthermore, it was not my intention to engage in denigration and attack the system of this island. I understand that the situation is difficult for many people and that there are no easy solutions. I do see the current lockdown arrangements as disproportionate though. The “ReOpen Isle of Man” was actually an appropriate catchphrase. It has been used by likewise movements in the US (ReOpen Maryland, ReOpen Michigan etc) and thus it gives the idea immediately. I would proposed the following heading: ReOpen Isle of Man – Exit from Covid-19 restrictions Let me know your thoughts about it. In the meantime, you may wish to check these two brief videos: https://video.foxnews.com/v/6152462264001#sp=show-clips https://video.foxnews.com/v/6152492933001#sp=show-clips on the same topic as the one I pointed out yesterday. There is always another side to the argument. Edited April 29, 2020 by Filippo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Filippo Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 I am sorry Zarley, I did not point out to those Fox News links because I am a supporter of Donald Trump. I am not. Read this thoughtful paper then: https://www.nicholaslewis.org/a-sensible-covid-19-exit-strategy-for-the-uk I expect feedback about my suggestion regarding the title of this thread (cf. my previous posting). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is always another side to the argument. Any coherent argument you might have had was just destroyed when you linked Tucker Carlson and Fox News, you might want to see what they stand for before posting links to that filth. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holte End Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 https://www.manxradio.com/news/isle-of-man-news/make-guidance-clear-urges-mhk/ If Mr Hooper is finding it difficult to follow. He could always ask someone in home affairs to explain. He really underestimates the general community. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could always ask someone in home affairs to explain. He really underestimates the general community. I’m not sure he does. The police seem to be making it all up on the fly. The only guidance that seems to have applied so far Is “This is what were telling you to do” whether that is actually embodied in (emergency) law or not. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
