A Methodist minister in Douglas is questioning the motives behind a government bill, which would allow public roads to be closed on Sundays throughout the year.
The Road Races Amendment Bill goes to the Keys for its second reading today (Tuesday).
It's been drawn up to allow for cycle racing during the Commonwealth Youth Games in September, as current legislation only permits road closures for motorbike events.
However, Reverend David Shirtliff says the scope of the bill is far too wide:
Overhead MER cables brought down in Laxey
IoM Railways says services on Snaefell Mountain Railway and part of MER are suspended
Health minister: 'Manx Care 2.0 is right around the corner'
Claire Christian says there are areas that can be improved in the health service
BMA ballot for industrial action delayed 'as long as possible'
'Undervalued doctors' say they have no choice amid ongoing issues at Noble's Hospital
Commissioners want 'professional assessment' on importance of Westhill House
Building subject to demolition order as part of housing development
