Worth a watch if you’re in #jerseyci or the other island!
Historic rivalry revealed in some glorious sentences and marvelous accents

Fantastic responses from @AndyJehan to the questions posed in this evening’s hustings in @StJohnJersey
Clear focus on community + working together for the benefit of all parishioners + islanders
Delighted that Andy is well positioned to return as our Constable in #bestparish
I think in #JerseyCI we would benefit from a lighter touch and more focus on individual responsibility
INTRODUCING a lifelong ban on buying cigarettes for Islanders aged 17 or younger “could be transformational and save lives”, a politician has said – but any new legislation “must be careful not to criminalise children”.

I think it should be mandatory for all returning politicians in Jersey to tell the public what 5 things they did during their prior term which made the most meaningful positive difference to the island

An interesting response earlier this week when I expressed dismay to a member of Jersey’s judiciary about the perpetual lenient sentences that are neither punishment nor deterrent

My dog doesn’t recognize himself in a mirror
In a stunning breakthrough, scientists discovered ants may have self-awareness. Researchers placed blue dots on their heads, and 23 out of 24 ants tried removing them after seeing their reflection, proving they recognized themselves. This rare behavior, seen in only a few large animals, shatters beliefs about insect intelligence and reveals that ants are far smarter than imagined.
Absolutely incredible admission from UK Gov
In all sincerity, what is the benefit of #JerseyCI being in the Common Travel Area?
We have totally open borders in exchange for being able to fly using a driving licence as photo ID rather than passport.
So what?
There must be more benefits, right?
Please enlighten me!

Great quote in this article from a Roman Archeology Expert (with a PhD) on what big shoes could indicate:
“We have to assume it's something to do with the people living here, having bigger feet, being potentially taller but we don't know,"

Food security for an island is important
We should be focusing on real sustainability not the fake, headline grabbing kind
I’ve been banging this drum for years in
#JerseyCI
The Channel Islands' largest food wholesaler, Cimandis, will cease trading in Jersey at the end of this month after "significant increases in rent and shipping costs".
34 people will lose their jobs.

One of things that concerns me about law and order in #JerseyCI is the very open border and ubiquitous lenient sentences, even for seasoned criminals with long records who get “one more chance”
It’s neither punishment nor deterrent
