A well written roundup of what’s happening in Guernsey, Jersey & The Isle of Man
Here’s the introduction….
FRUSTRATED by the UK Government’s stance the three UK Crown Dependencies of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man, have taken matters into their own hands.

They have been able to do this as the Crown Dependencies are both self-governing and have independent judicial rights, allowing them considerable autonomy, although in practice the UK does still represent them internationally and has some say in what goes on.
