MANX RADIO UPDATE:

MANX NEWSCAST: 

AGENDA: 

  • Agenda 26.1.25 - a Tale of Two Treasury Ministers

    Depending on which side of the growing divide in Manx politics you sit, last week was the best of times or the worst of times. As the old Treasury Minister faced the Cannan guillotine a new Treasury Minister rose back up from the political abyss. So what can Chris Thomas really achieve in the relatively short eight months he has as new Treasury Minister? And was departing Treasury Minister Alex Allinson naively persuing his personal ideology or pragmatically implementing what Tynwald thought it wanted? Find out on this evening’s extended Agenda. Are we heading to a political winter of despair or is a spring of hope just round the corner?

MANX RADIO MANNIN LINE:

  • It’s Mannin Line with Andy Wint - Friday 30th January 2026

    Political education for 16 year olds, Junara manx.net changeover latest, government's whistleblowers policy, our new boat - Steam Packet MD speaks, Palestinian Solidarity Campaign here & dog mess provision in Ballaugh Plantation. It’s Mannin Line with Andy Wint - Friday 30th January 2026

PERSPECTIVE:

  • Perspective 25.1.25 - January’s reshuffle Tynwald

    What Tynwald lacked in length this week it more than made up for in big announcements and policy changes. The Order Paper soon had the hefty addition of a statement on the Chief Minister’s reshuffle with two Ministers either ‘stepping down’ or being sacked depending on who you listened to. While Alf Cannan’s statement and a cooling in enthusiasm on the living wage grabbed the headlines, homelessness, the Island’s cattle health status and a call for a forensic audit of health were also covered. Is that the popular sound of a screeching u-turn I hear?
