Ashford calls for change as row rumbles on
A Douglas councillor says it’s time the Isle of Man had a rolling electoral list people could join at any time.
David Ashford was speaking out after hearing Rebecca Sinfield – the commissioner who first resigned because she wasn’t on the roll – can’t stand in the by-election she sparked in Port St Mary because she’s still not on it.
Mr Ashford says he can barely believe she’s been put in that situation despite returning her form in August.
And he says it’s time for a rethink of the rules:
Garff Commissioners hosting offshore windfarm drop in session today
No harbour basin work planned in Laxey this summer
Public invited to suggest new brownfield site for potential re-development
Anthony Allen re-elected as chair at Onchan Commissioners
