Voters head to the polls on Thursday
Two days before voters in the UK go to the polls, party fortunes continue to be followed closely by Manx political leaders and senior government officials.
Campaigning for Thursday's general election has twice been disrupted by terror attacks - in Manchester and London - the atrocities eclipsing party political differences.
The Isle of Man government is officially neutral on the outcome of a UK election, and aims to forge close ties with counterparts in Westminster and Whitehall, whoever is in Number 10.
However, behind the scenes, there's scrutiny of manifesto pledges and policy statements which could affect that relationship, or have a wider impact on the Crown Dependencies.
Minister for Policy and Reform Chris Thomas says the priorities of the next UK government will inevitably play out here:
Warning for 'disorderly' parents attending schools
Yellow weather warning for gale force winds
New board members sought for abattoir
Controversial local authority legislation debate deferred to end of March
Island offers consumer fuel protection advice
