MHK says IoM must 'outsmart playground bully virus'
The Isle of Man must find a way to support travel to the Island amidst the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
That's the call from Douglas East MHK Clare Barber, speaking in a debate on Covid-19 measures at this month's Tynwald sitting.
She's keen to see a testing regime used to allow the Island to move to stage 3A of its border framework, allowing for visits from relatives of Manx residents.
Mrs Barber says the Island shouldn't rely on the vaccine to resolve the travel situation:
DoI 'willing to assist' in talks over Solway Harvester memorial maintenance
Third party damage leaves 'large area' of Peel without water supply
Legislation around 'difficult' brownfield sites needs reviewing says MHK
Takeaway proposal branded 'blight' on community by Planning Committee
