People on the Island need to "wake up" and realise it's up to them to make a change in local politics.
That's the message from outgoing Onchan MHK Peter Karran - he's urging more people to consider standing in the upcoming General Election.
It takes place on September 22nd - prospective candidates have just under two months left to register their intention to stand.
The Liberal Vannin Party founder, who described his exit from politics as a "sad day for parliamentary democracy", says if he can do it - anyone can:
Stamps commemorate D-Day landings
Water mains work brought forward
Road closure to fell dead trees
Ramsey's Tesco stores move to Merseyside
Council plans Bottleneck improvements
New landlord laws need more work, says minister
Man drove over cocaine limit
Road closed after fire
