Is the United Kingdom set to follow the Isle of Man's lead and give 16 and 17-year-olds the vote?
A private members bill on the matter is going for its second reading in the House of Commons on Friday.
In 2006 the Island became the first country in both Europe and the Commonwealth to lower its voting age to 16 and our experience has been used as part of the debate in the UK.
Speaker of the House of Keys Steve Rodan feels it was a fair and logical step:
'Power of veto' might help get difficult decisions through, says chief minister
Gas prices to remain unchanged for 2026
Ramsey Commissioners not adding 'optional' one percent increase to social housing rents
New gynaecology clinic room will 'significantly increase capacity'
