Isle of Man 'better than Jersey'

Jersey’s press has been casting an envious eye over the Isle of Man – with a comment piece entitled “Anything we can do... the Isle of Man can do better”.

The story points out our economy is still growing, where Jersey’s economy is struggling.

The Jersey Evening Post praises our economic diversification, tax cap for wealthy residents, low unemployment, and new “Tesco Tax” on off-Island businesses trading here.

And on international tax agreements, the story says it “could look as though Jersey is simply dragging its feet. Perhaps once again, the Isle of Man has stolen an advantage.”
