Chief minister says Island must concentrate on things it can control
The chief minister says although the US tariff threats have created an atmosphere of deep uncertainty the Island must hold its nerve.
It must concentrate on those things it can control, he says.
Alf Cannan was being questioned in Tynwald on the impact the tariffs will or could have locally.
He admits that, at least in the short term, it will be worrying for certain sectors:
Working hard 'no longer enough to afford to buy a home'
Treasury writes off £340,000 in benefits overpayments in three years
Manxman to return to service following repairs
Discussions ongoing over meningitis B vaccine rollout
