The Growth Pledge.
Our Island needs jobs, exports, and economic growth. Let’s build a better Isle of Man.
Sign the pledge
Put growth at the centre.
We recognise that our Island lives and dies on the success of its economy. A stronger economy means more jobs and a broader tax base, creating more capacity for public services. It also means more work, more training and more prosperity for Manx workers and their families.
- 1
Growth
We agree that economic growth must be a priority for the next Tynwald, and commit to pursuing pro-growth policies.
- 2
Public services
We commit to improving public services. We recognise that the best long-term way to sustain those improvements is to generate more economic activity and a broader tax base to help fund them.
- 3
Housing
We commit to building more homes to help our community flourish. Affordable housing provides homes for young Manx people and for the skilled workers the Island needs.
- 4
Pensions
We believe a society has a particular duty towards vulnerable people, and that Manx pensioners should be supported in their later years. The strongest long-term foundation for that support is the jobs, taxes and economic activity that fund their pensions.
- 5
Energy
We believe in energy independence and energy abundance. We commit to reducing energy costs during the next Tynwald, including by increasing capacity.
- 6
The new economy
We recognise that our economy is driven by exports. We commit to making the Island a leading place for digital assets, an AI hub and an innovation zone.
- 7
Helping hospitality
Hospitality is a core part of the Manx economy. We commit to helping hospitality businesses and workers, including by reconsidering the minimum-wage framework.
