In Tynwald this week some politicians questioned the drive to promote migration when existing services are already under pressure.
But Alfred Cannan told Manx Radio he wants to ‘change the emphasis’ of the ongoing conversation:
Almost 3,000 take part in Pilates world record attempt at Knockaloe
Ben-my-Chree sailing cancelled due to 'technical issues'
