A election candidate standing in Middle says he's well equipped to steer the Isle of Man through the next few difficult years.
Former education advisor Paul Craine was chairman of Marown Commissioners until May.
He says he's comfortable with balance sheets and is a capable public speaker.
Mr Craine believes on a local level the priority for Middle is sensitive planning, while nationally the next government will have to seize every available opportunity when it comes to diversifying the economy.
