Paul Craine describes population imbalance as 'elephant' in the room
An MLC has called on government to ensure that ‘today’s policies don’t create tomorrow’s problems’.
Paul Craine says he’s concerned the population on the Isle of Man is ‘barely growing’.
It’s believed it’s only increased by 1.5 percent since 2021 with deaths still ‘substantially’ outweighing births.
