    EARROO / ISSUE 1 | JERREY GEUREE / JANUARY 2016 www.mecvannin.im Robertshaw Pulls Out before Finding the Spot Chris Robertshaw, the former Minister for Policy and Reform noted for disappoint- ingly pulling out ahead of completion, thinks he may now know where things went wrong. Mr Robertshaw had previously indicated that he had evacuated prematurely because other parties involved were taking too long to get there, saying "it was defi- nitely their fault, I mean, other people have told me how good I am, but satisfying these guys seemed impossible". He added "I don't remember hearing any complaints when I was finished with the Sefton, which I assume means everyone was satisfied". With a big election expected to occur in 2016 many have wondered whether a concerned Mr Robertshaw is just saying the things he thinks people want to hear. One reader commented "I think Mr Robertshaw may be worrying about his potential to rise to the expectations of a big election. When I attended the Government's "Big Debate" sessions last year he was obsessed with defending his small government and seemed to get very agitated at even the thought of a big one. Anyway, I figured it's not the size of a man's government that counts but the way he thrusts his policies. I thought he'd at least have the stamina to go for a bit longer when it came to actually performing". Responding to this, Mr Robertshaw said "I'll admit I may have gone soft when con- fronted with the reality of replacing a big government, but the point here is whether my government is running for other people, or is it running for itself.
