Party politics a replacement?
LibVan leader Kate Beecroft MHK hopes the Manx community will continue to search for an alternative political system - calling the current one 'broken'.
Mrs Beecroft put the idea of a party political system to an audience of around 50 people at a Junior Chamber of Commerce debate this week.
The vast majority of those who attended voted against the motion.
But Mrs Beecroft says it's important the debate took place:
