The Isle of Man's Attorney General believes his independence marks a distinct difference between his role and that of his counterpart in the United Kingdom
John Corlett says the role in the UK is a political appointment, and it could therefore be said that the AG's legal advice to Parliament is greatly coloured by his membership of the Cabinet

He claims that although he's a member of Tynwald, he's appointed by the Queen and is independent:
