Treasury Minister Allan Bell has renewed calls for Douglas to 'smarten up its act' to help bring new business to the Isle of Man.
Responding to criticism, by Douglas Councillor Jim Mitchell, of his earlier comments, Mr Bell (pictured) says that Douglas is our shop window and just isn't attractive compared to many other competing jurisdictions.
He said it's NOT another case of 'having a go' at Douglas - but that it's often the seemingly insignificant things that can prove to be a 'deal breaker' when trying to attract overseas investors:
Lack of opportunity to study science 'could be impacting future doctors'
Glen Maye patient airlifted to the UK
Trial for man who denies being controlling and coercive
Visitors asked to avoid main cemetery entrance on Sunday
Onchan man accused of committing act against public justice
Douglas Council using reserves to pay for 'decorative' promenade lighting
