Health Minister Claire Christian has been under fire this week for telling Tynwald there'd be no cuts to health services and then cuts being announced. The beleaguered Minister rejects suggestions that she had misled Tynwald and the public, and gives her perspective on why leaking the withdrawn media release announcing health cuts misled the public. What message does the Minister have to those who've had treatments cancelled? Will we hear an apology? You might be surprised by the answer.

Tynwald returns from its summer recess next week so what does the Order Paper tell us about what the Government has been up to since July? You might expect members to be keen to debate the Manx Care overspend but there are just a few questions and one motion on health and perhaps surprisingly no statement from the Health Minister. Maybe the Chief Minister will reveal more in his autumn statement? MHKs Claire Christian and Rob Callister pick over the relatively small number of motions on Perspective. We'll not be just going through the motions on this week's show.

Voters in Douglas South headed to the polling stations on Thursday, to elect not one, but two new representatives for the constituency. Polls opened at eight o'clock in the morning for a unique by-election which was called following the passing of Bill Malarkey in February and the resignation of Kate Costain. There were ten candidates for those two spots - eight independents, one from Liberal Vannin and one from the Isle of Man Green Party. Turnout was around 37%, with 1,789 votes cast. Topping the polls, with 930 votes, was local businesswoman Claire Christian. Joining her in Tynwald will be former pilot Paul Quine, who gathered the support of 469 constituents.

Claire Christian is a playwright, author and theatre maker, who has spent a lot of career working with teenagers. Her first novel, Beautiful Mess won the Text Publishing Text Prize in 2016. Her play Lysa and The Freeborn Dames debuted at La Boite in 2018. She directed Michelle Law’s smash hit comedy Single Asian Female. And her next novel will be released in October. Claire has a pug named Midge, a deep affinity for garlic bread, and she never has boring hair...ever.
