    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 13.7.26 - Election 26 - some thoughts on what prospective new MHKs can reasonably be expected to deliver

    With the general election just over two months away Agenda will be focussing on what we can reasonably expect to see in prospective MHKs manifestos. How should our expectations differ between sitting MHKs’ election promises and those entering politics for the first time? Is it fair to blame the civil service for government failures and how much of that blame should be placed on outgoing MHKs’ shoulders? Lots to contemplate on this week’s Agenda. If this is the worst government we’ve ever had should we be more careful in choosing our MHKs for the next five years?
