Ged Power says difference can be made at local level
Chris Thomas's call for people to use their votes in April's local authority elections has the backing of a Port Erin commissioner.
Ged Power is also hopeful good quality candidates will come forward, to make sure as many seats as possible are contested.
He agrees with Mr Thomas that a real difference can be made at local level:
RPU will be 'out in force' to stop drink and drug drivers
16 people arrested since start of annual campaign
Ramsey Commissioners to spend more than £8k on deckchairs and storage unit
The local authority is hoping to cover the cost with a government grant
