Eight MHKs voted against the Budget in Tynwald this week
An MHK says the Island's taxation structure is viewed as a 'static, unchangeable thing' rather than something which could be significantly overhauled.
Joney Faragher was one of eight MHKs to vote against the Treasury's financial plan for the upcoming year in Tynwald last month.
She was critical of several areas of the Pink Book including what she views as the 'funding gap' for healthcare services.
The member for Douglas East has also repeatedly called for a 'more open-minded approach' to taxation:
Crogga pulled the plug on gas extraction, says minister

Why are the Island's mortgage rates so much higher than the UK?
Island 'needs to look globally' when considering new laws
