A union boss hopes the end of Mezeron's daily freight service between the Isle of Man and Liverpool will act as a 'wake-up call'.
The service, in direct competition with the Steam Packet, was only launched in October but is due to end a week today (February 19), after it failed to meet volume growth and profitability.

But he says the Packet now needs to provide better services for the travelling public:
