Get out and use your vote in the local elections a week on Thursday!
That rallying call from the leader of Douglas Corporation David Christian.
He says getting things right locally - like street lighting and litter - can improve the quality of life dramatically - and that's the job of your local authority.
But only six of the island's 24 authorities are having elections - with few people prepared to come forward as candidates, in most areas there's no contest.
Speaking on last night's Agenda Mr Christian said the change to a four yearly election cycle has done little to raise interest among the electorate:
Planning approval wanted for padel and wellness facility at The Nunnery
Chief minister keen to release the lease for offshore wind farm
Airline adds routes for TT 2027
New deputy high bailiff 'honoured' to be appointed
