Manx economy 'resilient' as UK growth falters
Treasury Minister Alf Cannan has called Philip Hammond's autumn statement is one of continuity.

Mr Cannan says experts have been predicting a pessimistic outlook for the best part of a decade, but reality is very different.
He believes the Island's economy has shown its resilience in austere times.
