Watning over Jersey position
The Isle of Man can't afford to gloat about Jersey's financial black hole.
That's the message from the Manx Chief Minister after a Guardian newspaper article cast gloom on Jersey’s financial prospects.
The three page report, entitled ‘On the rocks, the fall of Jersey’, said the Channel Island was facing a £145 million pound black hole in its income.
Allan Bell says some may equate one Island with another:
Bishop's vote...vote...pushed back to January
Debate on Isle of Man Constitution Bill adjourned until the new yearÂ
Dates for rebranded Isle of Man Food and Drink Festival announced
'The Big Manx Feast' will return in September next year
Treasury eyes tougher immigration rules to tackle 'risks' facing system
Higher pay requirements and stricter dependant policies to be reviewed by Council of Ministers
Business confidence cools as costs climb and demand outlook weakens, survey finds
