Lord Dubs calls for action
The Island should take a small number of Syrian refugees.
That's the view of Labour peer Lord Dubs as Tynwald gets set to talk about the issue again next week.
Lord Dubs was the architect of a 2016 scheme which saw hundreds of unaccompanied children come and live in the UK.
He says he's aware the Manx Government has donated humanitarian aid but feels there's a responsibility to do more:-
Met Office issues coastal overtopping warning
Next two high tides expected to impact coastal areas
Questions raised about airport's safety and workplace culture
Government defends facility amid claims of cultural and operational issues
Garff Commissioners introduces street light scheme to be more 'proactive'
Local Authority says replacements can cost up to £800
Douglas Council purchases seven EVs for 'fleet renewal' programme
The local authority says these are replacing 'ageing' diesel vehicles
