I spoke with Manx Radio yesterday about stopping rules breaches before they happen. First and foremost, we need to stay safe, and harsh punishments after the fact aren’t very good at that. Secondly, the justice system needs to be fair and consistent.

It’s as some of those who have been found to have breached self-isolation have been handed suspended sentences, and others; jail time.
