Another brace of newbie MHKs on Perspective with Treasury members Sarah Maltby and Andrew Smith talking about the financial support packages government announced this week to try to address the cost of living crisis. Have they been effective in their first year? Is it okay to say one thing at election time and then shift your position after? Do we expect too much of our wannabe politicians or are we right to accept clear policies on which we can hold them to account? That’s Perspective this Sunday at 12 noon with me Phil Gawne on Manx Radio. Is Treasury’s iron grip on government finances slackening and if it is, is that good or bad? Hmmmm?
