MHK calls for government to do more to help struggling traders
Government needs to support small businesses if it wants them to be around in 12 months.
That's from Douglas North MHK John Wannenburgh, who says government is duty bound to help those impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Treasury Minister David Ashford recently said the current round of financial support is likely to be the last unless 'something drastic' were to change.

'No guarantee there'll be any support' amid ongoing fuel crisis
1.5% electricity price increase comes into force
Tourist tax would be 'wrong move at the wrong time', says Douglas hotelier
