About this listen

With the impact of the pandemic still looming over Guernsey's tourism sector, what can be done to encourage visitors back and could it ever reach the heydays of the 1980s?

In our second election episode, Luke and Matthew are joined by Ant Ford-Parker who runs an outdoor activity company and chairs the Guernsey Tourism Partnership. He explains how uncertainty from the "ferry fiasco" tender process hurt already struggling businesses and calls for greater political accountability in tourism more widely.

Luke and Matthew also discuss the States-owned airline Aurigny and whether it should switch from profit to a subsidised public service to improve air links.
