Former MHK says gov't 'blindly following' solar and wind power
A former MHK petitioned Tynwald this week asking for more thought to be given to nuclear energy sources for the Island.
Martyn Perkins, who served Garff from 2016-2021, wants a group to be established to investigate the possibility of small modular reactors.
He says it's a power source that's been left out of recent discussions about the Island's energy solutions:
NSC pool out of action until the New Year
Cracked pipe needs to be fixed and 'water safely recirculated and tested'
Main route through Foxdale closed due to RTC
Emergency services are on the scene
Michelle Mone-linked PPE firm liquidated and unlikely to repay £148m
Judge Sebastian Prentis placed the company into liquidation
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
Water and debris likely to impact coastal routes around high tide
