Viva The Revolution. It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. #starttherevolution

This is an excellent sentiment that should be considered before importing more senior civil servants and voting in wannabe UK politicians as MHKs. What has long made the Isle of Man unique is rapidly being lost. 🇮🇲

Here’s the thing: islands are complex ecosystems. They’re not just holiday destinations or quirky backwaters waiting to be 'developed'. They are living, breathing communities with histories that run deep – and scars that still sting // @wodieskodie

If you needed more proof that the Manx government has lost sight of who it serves, this might be it. Maybe if the default response wasn’t ‘no’ to everything, they wouldn’t get so many requests. 💷

@LawrieHooper @OllieLast You say tax payer like every tax payer has a say in the matter! Change the language that infers it was the people’s choice!

@OllieLast Why would the taxpayer spend money to support phase 3 of the licence when Crogga didn’t complete phase 2?
Both parties agreed the licence phases, Crogga didn’t meet their end of the deal. If they’d have done the survey and were being held up I’d get it, but that’s not the case
English
Crogga have had 7 years to undertake the survey that underpins all this
During that time govt have extended the licence no fewer than 5 times at Crogga’s request
I think it’s pretty clear where the problem has been

A Crogga shareholder's claimed government made it 'impossible' to progress with plans to extract gas off the north coast of the Isle of Man. Former MHK Chris Robertshaw has been reacting to the company's decision not to proceed with the scheme. manxradio.com/news/isle-of-m…

Since sharing this photo yesterday, I’ve been subject to some pretty horrible comments about my appearance and weight.
I contemplated deleting it. But instead, I’ve decided to post it again to show I’m not ashamed of my body!! 😃

@nickop Nice! I’m looking forward to trying a couple sourdough recipes from @Tom_Herbert_ book, pizza dough and snobrød! You’ll have to share a photo of your next loaf for inspiration!

@iom_fandliom Business’s need people to employ? Look at the job centre.

I agree we need controls but this seems like more unreasonable red tape and un achievable requirements for most!

🚨 The new Confirmation of Employment (CoE) requirements in the #IsleofMan are a disaster for employers! 🚨 Banks won’t provide the required letters, and finding two Manx referees with 5 years of knowledge about a business is near impossible. Did anyone consult businesses before this policy change? Here’s what employers are now required to provide under the new CoE rules: (a) A letter on headed paper from an Isle of Man licensed bank, signed by a senior official, confirming the nature of the account holder’s business activities in the Isle of Man. (q) Employers must provide two professional referees who: •Have known the employer for at least 5 years •Have knowledge of the business •Are Isle of Man residents This is completely unrealistic! 🚨 •Banks will never issue letters confirming business activities. •Many businesses (especially startups) won’t have two Manx referees with 5 years’ knowledge—they need new talent to grow! This policy is out of touch with how businesses operate. A company can grow from 1 to 100+ employees in 5 years. How are they supposed to find referees who meet this outdated requirement? Even the @IOMDfEnterprise or the Chamber seems clueless about how this happened. How do they not have prior knowledge of this? 🤯 This needs urgent revision before it damages the economy. •Hurts startups & scaling businesses •Deters foreign investment & talent •Creates unnecessary red tape The government should be supporting businesses, not making hiring impossible. Employers need practical solutions, not bureaucratic obstacles. This policy needs urgent review. Who’s going to fix it before it causes serious damage? #IsleOfMan #Business #CoE #PolicyFail

@jamesq Cheers Jam you never know these days when it comes from an unknown number. Thanks

@nickop That’s a genuine one :-) some older Sims need to be swapped out and replaced.
