Social Care Minister Chris Robertshaw was given a rocky ride by those attending a public meeting last night.
The gathering at the Manx Museum was part of a series of events to debate changes to social policy – with issues such as means-testing for universal benefits and public housing, as well as tougher benefits rules up for discussion.
Around 60 people turned up to make comments and ask questions, most of whom had criticisms of his department.
These people thought it had been a worthwhile event, though:
