Alex Allinson speaks out after MIMA hearing
A Ramsey MHK says he wasn't trying to be 'incendiary' when he said there was potential for windfarms to be built all around the Island's coast.
Alex Allinson's comments to a hearing into the proposed Mooir Vannin project provoked a strong response from parts of the Island, including Chief Minister Alfred Cannan who described them as a 'fantasy'.
Dr Allinson told the hearing the project would be important for 'the sustainable economic future of our Island'.

With the proposals facing opposition from members of the Island community, not least from the NOT4IOM campaign group, the retiring MHK told Manx Radio he wanted to offer "a different perspective":
