MHK critical of but supported financial plan
An MHK who's faced criticism for his comments on last week's budget has explained his approach.
Rob Callister told Tynwald he was 'disappointed' with Alfred Cannan's budget, and had 'serious concerns' over an apparent failure to address rising living costs.
The minister dismissed his remarks as 'all over the place'.
Mr Callister ultimately went on to vote in favour of the budget.
He says voting in protest is often an attempt to 'grab a quick headline' - and overall, Treasury 'needed support' from politicians:
Plans submitted for rooftop solar array at NSC
Station Garage to undergo refurbishment as family owners 'taking a step back'
Man stole £50k from business woman based on the Island during Covid
Information Commissioner joins internal review of digital services used by young people
