Lib Van member won't defect after election

Julie Edge says party politics in the Island can work

Party politics can succeed in the Isle of Man, according to a candidate standing in next month's election.

Lib Van member Julie Edge is hoping to be a representative for Onchan from September 22.

She's promised not to desert the party if elected - something former MHK Zac Hall did in 2012.

And Mrs Edge believes there's a reason why so many people feel disillusioned with politics on the Island.
