PERSPECTIVE:

  • Perspective 12.7.26 - fifty years of broadcasting and what needs to change in the future?

    On Perspective this week we take a nostalgic look at one presenter’s half a century of broadcasting. He also discusses how things need to change to prepare for the next fifty years. How has government and Tynwald influenced the media since the birth of Manx Radio and what role should they play in influencing the future. With most people relying on social media to access their news is there any future for conventional broadcast and print media? Is that the smell of revolutionary change in the air?

AGENDA: 

  • Agenda 30.6.26 - a quashed mini-revolt in LegCo, when is a rates Bill not a rates Bill and one of the best speeches in June Tynwald.

    Continuing on my recent attempt to convince you that politics is quite exciting on tonight’s Agenda we have a quashed mini-revolt in LegCo, when is a rates Bill not a rates Bill and one of the best speeches in June Tynwald. Pharmacists are concerned about changes being proposed in the National Health Service Reform Bill 2026 but attempts by one MLC to support their cause did not convince a majority in Legislative Council. The Treasury Minister has withdrawn the Rates Bill deciding its better to leave it until after the election, and there’s a cracking speech on horse trams. Politics? … Boring? … Never!
