Peter Karran blasts Howard Quayle's top team
A former MHK says the current Manx government is not open, not accountable, and not responsible in its actions.
Peter Karran - who was first elected to the House of Keys in 1985 - wrote a letter to the Editor of Isle of Man Newspapers, and more openly to the taxpayers of the Isle of Man, voicing his concerns about the Media Development Fund.
The 58-year-old represented the continuency of Onchan for 30 years and retired from Manx politics before the 2016 General Election.In his words, almost £27million has been "fritted [sic] away" instead of being spent wisely.
Mr Karran argues that this is just the latest in a list of instances where government has failed to use public funds responsibly:
Almost 38,000 passengers used ferry services to travel to Island during TT
Decision over Peel telegraph poles "should still stand", says minister
43 babies born on Island in May
Inflation rate unchanged in May
