The Elections Bill looks to allow people living offshore to make financial donations to political parties
A senior Labour MP's opposing proposals to allow people in the Isle of Man to vote in future UK elections.
Alex Norris, who represents Nottingham North, and is the party's Shadow Minister for Levelling Up and the Constitution, says it will be difficult to verify who qualifies as an overseas elector.
At present, anyone who's moved to the Island from the United Kingdom and has lived here for less than fifteen years, can still vote in the constituency they originated from.
The Elections Bill, which is about to have its third reading in the House of Commons, will remove that time limit and allow people living in offshore jurisdictions, to make financial donations to political parties:
