Agenda 29.1.24 - a lively debate on government’s refugee policy.

There was quite a heated exchange in Tynwald this month about government’s policy relating to accepting refugees. Minister Kate Lord Brennan was surprisingly robust in defending the Cabinet Office’s approach and this led to several members including the mover of the motion Joney Faragher giving as good as they got. On Agenda this week we hear from both protagonists and get seasoned politician Juan Watterson’s take on how the apparent misunderstandings may have occurred. A heated debate to warm this dark January evening.
