Tony Brown represented Castletown during his time in politics
A recommendation to close the Southern Swimming Pool shows a "complete lack of vision", according to a former chief minister.
A letter sent to pool staff - that was leaked to Manx Radio - highlighted plans to close the facility permanently.
The move's said to be based on financial grounds, and Tynwald members will get the final say when it's presented next month.
Tony Brown, who was also an MHK for Castletown, says it's an "appalling" and "unjustifiable" decision:
