ICYMI: Treasury Ministers – Past vs Present

Last night Chris Robertshaw pointed members of the Local Economy Forum audience to watch some interviews Manx.News conducted.

As the Isle of Man faces one of its most divisive economic decisions in recent years, the latest episode of Manx.News Special Report series, explored the proposed rise in the island’s minimum wage—and the fierce debate surrounding it.

The interviews feature exclusive interviews with:

  • Alex Allinson MHK, the politician behind the proposal, who argues it’s a matter of fairness and dignity.
  • Eddie Teare, former Treasury Minister and senior Isle of Man Bank manager, who warns the move could destabilise the economy.
  • Leading voices from the hospitality, business, and supply chain sectors, including representatives from Robinsons and Heron & Brearley, who say the impact could be devastating.
