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:

No increase in domestic gas prices for rest of 2026
Law targeting sale of nicotine pouches takes step further
Procurement process for Kirk Onchan Post Office continuing
Bus station will not be moved to the Sea Terminal
