MHK Chris Robertshaw says party politics isn't the answer
East Douglas MHK Chris Robertshaw says party politics is not the only alternative to the Island's current political system.
He was responding to suggestions his opposition to the move meant he was in favour of the status quo.
At present, Mr Robertshaw believes government is 'too big, clunky, bureaucratic and top heavy' - but believes a party political system would do nothing to change that.
The former Policy and Reform minister who was appointed with a brief to streamline government, resigned in February this year saying he was unhappy with the pace and rate of reform.
He says the government should consider several far-reaching changes:
Man jailed for sports centre hot tub attack
New chair of Ramsey Commissioners hopes to see more development
Changes to Steam Packet schedules next week
Minister acknowledges need to act quickly to mitigate concerns of hospitality sector
Neil Taverner wins Cleveland Medal
Technical issue behind flight delay
