My contacts, who cannot be revealed, have uncovered a conspiracy at the very heart of affairs on the IOM. It seems fantastic but the Macquary Bank Group of Australia who own the Steam Packet have vociferously protested against the secret plan to have the entire island towed and attached to the coast of Wales. Fearing a dramatic drop in sales they have offered to concrete the entire pit area and restore the Queen Victoria Pier in Ramsey if this plan is voted down.
My usual source Bill Snelling said he Dudno anything about it.
