MHK wants people to have a stake
People on the Island should have the chance to share in the fortunes of the Steam Packet Company in the years to come.
That's the view of Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper, following Tynwald's approval of government's proposal to purchase the ferry operator yesterday (15 May).
Mr Hooper says the Manx public should be given the chance to invest in the company:
Further sailings cancelled due to adverse weather
Friday's Heysham crossings affected
UK Government under scrutiny over Manx assisted dying legislation
David Lammy has still not made a recommendation that royal assent be granted
Men jailed for £49,000 cocaine ferry importation plot
Manchester duo were part of an organised crime group
Warning in place as hill snow expected overnight
Rain to fall as sleet or snow around 1000ft and above
