Six members voted against annual report
The chief minister has been defending his Economic Strategy, after facing a "mini rebellion" while presenting its annual report in Tynwald.
It comes after the announcement that government plans to close the Southern Swimming Pool at the end of the financial year.
The debate on the strategy lasted over an hour and a half, with six MHKs voting against it, including all four southern members.
But Alfred Cannan says the Island's politicians need to look at the bigger picture:
Rapid bed review finds 'deep rooted behavioural and cultural issues' at Noble's Hospital
'Iconic' 250-year-old Ballaugh elm trees felled due to disease
Report published following rapid review of bed capacity at Noble’s Hospital
'Big discussions' to be had over whether Isle of Man follows UK-style social media ban
