Watterson only member to vote against
The Speaker of the House of Keys says the budget setting process is anti-democratic.
Juan Watterson was the only Tynwald member to vote against the treasury minister's financial plan today (16 Feb).
He's complained there's not enough time for the public and politicians to give the budget proper scrutiny before it's voted on:
Mr Watterson's concerns are shared by former Liberal Vannin chairman and Keys candidate Michael Josem:
Meningitis B vaccination scheme to be rolled out on-Island
Programme is for eligible Year 13 students and under-25s
Balthane Roundabout plans on hold until 2027/28 as costs rise
Price tag has jumped up by £600,000 since scheme was first approved
Port St Mary lifeboat launched to rescue stricken fishing vessel
RNLI crew tows vessel back into harbour
Enquiries ongoing after 'shotgun-like sound' heard near Police Headquarters
Police say there's no indication of any wider risk to the public
