Josem confident party in good position
The chair of Liberal Vannin is set to resign in the New Year.
Michael Josem says he's stepping down so he can establish a new, non-partisan, and not-for profit organisation.
He made the announcement today, and has thanked party colleagues and the public for support during his 18-month stint as chair.
Mr Josem narrowly missed out on becoming an MHK this year during the Douglas South by-election.
He says the party has become more vocal during his term, and will continue to advocate for the public:
Liberal Vannin members will have to elect a new chair at a meeting in January, with Mr Josem to propose party secretary Paul Weatherall for the role.
