A 12 day strike by the Island's bus drivers has begun this morning.
The drivers rejected an offer from the Department of Community Culture and Leisure yesterday.
56 turned down the proposals, 18 were in favour and a number didn't vote.
Community, Culture and leisure Minister Graham Cregeen had this to say on hearing the outcome:
Isle of Man inflation eases slightly to 2.8% in October
Rising restaurant, food and tobacco prices continue to drive inflation, while energy costs help offset increases
