Former Minister's view on MLC's suggestion
A suggestion that the Isle of Man could do better by ceding its independence has been rubbished by a nationalist former minister.
MLC Juan Turner put forward the idea in a post on social media this week.
He claims making the Island a constituency of Westminster could give us access to UK Government grants, whilst allowing us to 'maintain control' of our finances.
The Isle of Man has been a self-governing Crown Dependency since the eighteenth century.
But Mr Turner's former colleague Phil Gawne says our position makes us richer:
Lack of TT trade 'to blame' for retail company closure
Southern section of Mountain Road to reopen for the weekend
Resident opinions wanted on social housing consultation
Liverpool sailing cancelled
IOM Government welcomes temporary ceasefire in the Middle East
