CM flies flag on Gold Coast
Howard Quayle says a two-week trip to Australia was rewarding both personally and politically.
The Chief Minister took his family to Gold Coast to watch the Commonwealth Games - a holiday he stresses was paid for out of his own pocket.
Whilst there, he also took the opportunity to meet local ministers and Commonwealth leaders to discuss matters like post-Brexit trade.
But Mr Quayle admits the highlight was watching Manx athletes excel at the Games:
Jail for man who stole nearly £70k from Western Civic Amenity Site
Court told employee was effectively 'stealing from the public'
"Halfway Horse Tram" not the only problem on the prom, says council leader
Devon Watson hits out at state of the "gateway to the Island"
Emergency services tackle fire at Peel Golf Course
