Concerns government may not achieve Island plan if it doesn't intervene
A Douglas South MHK is calling on government to 're-address' help available to Island-based businesses.
It follows the announcement that her own business – Claire Christian Couture – is closing this month due to what she’s described as ‘unimaginable’ increased costs.
Claire Christian has previously been vocal about the amount of support for those who are self-employed.
A local business owner recently told Manx Radio he believed the current economic climate is tougher than it was during the pandemic.
Ms Christian says she agrees:
Overnight sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Rapist who 'terrorised' his victim told his sentence was 'entirely justified'
Complaints process for health system changed
Discovery of oiled birds 'makes a mockery of our biosphere status'
Charges now in place for those sending parcels to the EU
