From Ronnie Delanoë.
RE the appointment of a head teacher for La Moye School – here it goes again – the powers-that-be in that field select a UK applicant for the position.

A few years back a UK applicant won the top position for Les Quennevais School and what happened there? She left after about two years with a fat cheque, laughing all the way to the bank.

Also I recall the Fort Regent appointment fiasco some years back. Both these positions, along with many others, should have been awarded to locals who would have certainly been adequately qualified, but no, bring over from the UK. The same happens when selecting architects, and so-called consultants, etc.

What is it with the Jersey ‘so-called’ politicians? Is it a case of the ‘big I am’? Jersey certainly must be looked upon as an Island of rich and easy pickings. And as soon as the Deputies get selected they side with each other, making sure not to step on each other’s toes.

In my view and that of many other Islanders, Mr de Luca should have been selected.
However, c’est la vie.

And now I read about the man at the head of the waterfront project -another ‘import’ and getting huge bucks – so enough said.
