Christian seeks 'alternative ways of boosting economy'
It's thought the loss of the TT is costing Douglas Borough Council upwards of £100,000.
The event was cancelled this year and government announced earlier this month the 2021 races have also been called off.
Council Leader David Christian says that decision didn't come as a surprise.
He told Local Democracy Reporter Chris Cave the focus should now be on finding alternative ways of boosting the economy:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
People urged to make alternative arrangements to get home
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
30-year-old told he'd made 'extremely foolish choices'
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
The Steam Packet Company says it's due to an earlier delay from Heysham
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
Decision made by management due to reduced demand
