There was a thread on Manx Forums a while back about a particular MHK who strongly objected to "ill-informed forums..." and wanted them shut down.  I don't think at the time that was directed at iomtt.com as the Manx government comes under regular fire on Manx Forums.  Whether that criticism is justified or not is not for me to say.

The problem with politicians in general is they only want to hear good things about their bright ideas and a contrary opinion is usually unwelcome.
