Allinson makes plea to last minute shoppers
People looking for last minute Christmas presents are being urged to shop local.
With just one day before Christmas Day the enterprise minister says it's a good way of boosting the Manx economy.

Dr Alex Allinson says, after a difficult time with the pandemic, retailers will be glad of the support:
