MHK Chris Robertshaw says party politics isn't the answer
East Douglas MHK Chris Robertshaw says party politics is not the only alternative to the Island's current political system.
He was responding to suggestions his opposition to the move meant he was in favour of the status quo.
At present, Mr Robertshaw believes government is 'too big, clunky, bureaucratic and top heavy' - but believes a party political system would do nothing to change that.
The former Policy and Reform minister who was appointed with a brief to streamline government, resigned in February this year saying he was unhappy with the pace and rate of reform.
He says the government should consider several far-reaching changes:
Mountain Road reopens
Patients 'strongly satisfied' with virtual GP pilot
New electrical vehicle training course powers up at UCM
Island to mark the golden anniversary of the Millennium of Tynwald
Onchan Commissioners open 'expressions of interest' for future social housing projects
