Minister defends private petrolheads' run
A convoy of unique sports cars on Manx roads was a worthy marketing exercise, according to the Economic Development Minister.
Liverpool-based Briggs Automotive Company brought over twelve of its high-powered, £125,000 Mono cars yesterday - with their international owners given a grand tour of the Island's scenic drives.
Though many turned out to marvel at the sight, some complained that the meet - which saw temporary road closures in the south - was a case of government pandering to wealthy non-residents.
But Laurence Skelly says it's about the bigger picture:
Funding of government services 'not sustainable'
Douglas Council object to DoI plans for temporary parking on Summerland site
Surgeon announces he's standing in General Election
'Bridging the care gap' focus of World Parkinson's Day
