Retired IoM Bank MD standing in Middle
A general election candidate says his background in banking, particularly as a managing director, means he wouldn't have a problem making difficult decisions, if elected.
Bill Shimmins had the top post at Isle of Man Bank before retiring earlier this year.
Residing in Glen Vine for the last 13 years, he's standing in the constituency of Middle.
Mr Shimmins points to the time he chose to shut a number of the bank's branches as an example of doing something deemed necessary, if unpopular:
Peel bar impacted by bus strikes
Care funding reform report delayed following ministerial change
Charity plans baby loss memorial garden at Noble's Hospital
New rights for neonatal care leave and carer's leave on the way
Manx Wildlife Trust launches new internship programme
