Director of Harbours says abuse isn't acceptable
Coastguard officers are receiving abuse, in person and online, after trying to stop young people being injured at sea.
That’s according to the director of harbours who's condemned people’s behaviour towards members of the Isle of Man Coastguard.
In recent weeks teams have tried to stop children and teenagers jumping into the sea around harbour areas.
Mark Kenyon says whilst he understands people want to enjoy the sea he's bewildered by the attitudes of some of them:
Border security: 'Even today, we don't know who's here'
DoI 'working closely' with Steam Packet to assess impact of Manxman withdrawal
Tynwald mandated gas tariffs suspended by court
'Not viable' to pause visa applications says treasury minister
