A Methodist minister in Douglas is questioning the motives behind a government bill, which would allow public roads to be closed on Sundays throughout the year.
The Road Races Amendment Bill goes to the Keys for its second reading today (Tuesday).
It's been drawn up to allow for cycle racing during the Commonwealth Youth Games in September, as current legislation only permits road closures for motorbike events.
However, Reverend David Shirtliff says the scope of the bill is far too wide:
Manx Radio to 'formally investigate' complaint from veteran broadcaster
Station confirms it received an 'official letter of complaint' this week
Temporary ambulance station established at Castletown Coastguard Station
Ambulance cover in the south to be maintained following station fire
Owners advised to keep pets out of river
A number of fish have been found dead in the river near Poulsom Park
Nearly £165k spent on AI subscriptions
Over 3,400 licences have been bought since 2024
