No new comments added since the 18th -- I tried yesterday, they might add more, might not.

Most of the comments added are quite cutting so I can't see them censuring, unless of course they think too many negitives now.


I've written to ask when the comments will appear

As you say touchy feely comments are there nothing else. I've suggested they write our story.

I also tried to post comments but I don't think they have gone through yet. I also found that the last comments were on 18th.

None of our critical comments have made it on to this page. The editor is obviously excluding anything that is not “touchy feel and o so positive”


Golden opportunity to keep up media pressure

We must use every media opportunity to press home the DAG's case.

Here's my reply comment to this article submitted today:

"Hey! what about the thousands of depositors who trusted the Kaupthing Bank with their money? They too have lost everything. The 10,000 depositors in Kaupthing Isle of Man Bank have not been 'rescued' by the IOM Government like those in the UK. Many are expat retired people whose life savings have been legally stolen from them. Their lives have been ruined. Many in their 'golden years' can not go back to work. Some have died. Others have committed suicide because of this disaster. The Vincenzo's will survive. Thousands of depositors who gave the likes of him a wealthy lifestyle will not."

Any lady member willing to offer THEIR STORY to Femail? Great opportunity to get across our side of the story!

Well one really must empathaise, really having to go to a supermarket instead of Harrods. Maybe Mr Alfeyd (?) could buy KSFIOM, reinstate the managers etc, then they can all start going back to Harrods, to shop - simple

Yes I know I have spelt a name wrong


Tricky Dicky - yes! you spelt it wrong
