David Christian hopes for better in 2017
The leader of the Island’s largest local authority says he hopes the government will look again at its TT entertainment plans – after free events on Douglas Promenade were scrapped this year.
Councillor David Christian says he’s been contacted by people complaining about the lack of festival atmosphere on the prom after the Department of Economic Development said it had no money to provide stunt shows this year.
Councillor Christian says he’s disappointed – and fears TT visitors and locals were let down.
But he says there is still time for the government to come up with something better next year:
'No guarantee there'll be any support' amid ongoing fuel crisis
Fuel crisis support needed now, says MHK
1.5% electricity price increase comes into force
Tourist tax would be 'wrong move at the wrong time', says Douglas hotelier
