Cannan tells politicians to remember they represent the entire Island
The chief minister says he's reminded the southern MHKs "they're national politicians too", after they unanimously rejected his Economic Strategy Annual Report in Tynwald.
Six members voted against the report, including all four members from Arbory, Castletown and Malew and Rushen.
It's after a recommendation was published which suggests the government close the Southern Swimming Pool at the end of the financial year as a cost cutting method.
Alfred Cannan says they need to consider the bigger picture:
