Suspects political manoeuvring
The former chairman of the Isle of Man Post Office says his stance has been vindicated – after Tynwald backed his opposition to corporatising the body.
Yesterday, government plans to turn the statutory board into a company were defeated at the vote, just weeks after Graham Cregeen MHK was sacked for disagreeing with the Post Office board about the proposals.
Mr Cregeen says he feels badly-treated over the affair, and the proposals simply didn’t have enough detail for him to support them.
And he suspects his sacking may have been political manoeuvring in the run-up to the general election:
'Unprecedented' situation after deemster in Island's first group litigation case resigns
Immigration changes designed to stop exploitation by 'bad eggs'
Plantation wood, telegraph poles and Satnav to be discussed in the House of Keys
Contingency budget for horse tram tracks 'significantly increased'
MHK to seek re-election in Arbory, Castletown and Malew
