We regularly hear the phrase “this is the worst government we’ve ever had” trotted out in the run up to possibly the last four elections, but is that true?

Next week we’ll have wind farms, poverty, the chief constable’s report and more, but Perspective this week… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/497afe0f-bc0b-41d9-a78d-b81c1347aecf.mp3) ## [Perspective 19.7.26 - reflections from President Skelly and in an unrelated piece what should we do about Katie Hopkins](https://www.manxradio.com/podcasts/perspective1/) _2026-07-19 · Perspective - Manx Radio_ A game of two very distinct halves on Perspective this week with some reflection on his time in office from outgoing Tynwald President Laurence Skelly and one man’s crusade aganist the sellout appearance of Katie Hopkins at the Gaiety.

If this week’s guests are right renewable energy offers cheaper more secure electricity supplies, so why has government been generally silent in trying to sell the more sustainable and potentially cheaper green agenda which the… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/198a29dc-9015-4900-bf15-7e0d6a56d9a8.mp3) ## [Perspective 28.6.26 - another look at a very busy June Tynwald](https://www.manxradio.com/podcasts/perspective1/) _2026-06-28 · Perspective - Manx Radio_ Budget reform, the £20m health overspend, hospital beds, dyslexia and reform of government’s land ownership were all discussed in this month’s Tynwald.

Despite neither Tynwald nor the public knowing why Royal Assent wasn’t granted amendments were moved which according to the Attorney General were all that’s needed to get the greenlight from the UK.
