Former MHK pleased Island doesn't have a party system
The failure of the political party system creates a greater opportunity for fundamental change, according to a former MHK.
Chris Robertshaw retired from politics in 2021, having been elected in Douglas East in 2010.
Following the recent UK election, Mr Robertshaw believes there's evidence fewer voters are now loyal to a specific party.
He's pleased a party system hasn't come into force in the Island's parliament:
Island warned to expect heavy rain this afternoon
Yellow weather warning is now in force
Jurby landowner working with planning and Bus Vannin on future shelter provision
Resident's proposal to convert shelter into storage approved
'We wouldn’t have it any other way’
Support your child's dreams say biker mums
Ramsey Tesco to 'open as normal' following incident
Officers confirm 'all enquiries relating to the area are now complete'
