MHK's comments come following Commons debate
An MHK says the Island must rise above the 'rhetoric' from other jurisdictions when its integrity is questioned under the international spotlight.
Lawrie Hooper was speaking to Manx Radio following the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Bill debate in the House of Commons.
He agrees the Island can sometimes become a 'political football', but that regulations here are in many cases above the international expected standard already:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
New weather warning covers next two high tides
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Issue affecting main runway now fixed
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
But the MER will be operating as normal tomorrow
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
Question marks over beloved establishment's future
