People in Guernsey are much more satisfied with their government's strategy in dealing with coronavirus than in Jersey, a survey has said.

More than 3,000 people responded to the survey by Island Global Research, external taken in October by people from both bailiwicks and the Isle of Man.

Fewer than half of Jersey people thought the island's strategy for dealing with the disease was right - just 42%. In Guernsey and the Isle of Man, 80% of respondents agreed with their local strategy.

People were also asked how they felt Covid strategies were affecting well-being, travel, work and income.

About 39% of Guernsey respondents report a life satisfaction level of eight or more out of 10. That rose to 44% in the Isle of Man but just 25% in Jersey.

Despite very different levels of Covid-19 in the islands, perception of risk was quite similar when people were asked if they felt the virus posed a threat to respondents personally: 26% in Guernsey, rising to 32% in Jersey.

People in Jersey are twice as likely as Guernsey respondents to have travelled off island since the pandemic began and twice as many would be willing to travel to visit friends and family.

Controversial changes to UK fishing laws will not undermine the historic constitutional relationship between the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the UK, according to the UK Environment Minister George Eustice.

The Fisheries Bill, which this week received royal assent, gives Westminster power to legislate for fishing rights in local waters - a move that has prompted anger in the Crown dependencies.

But Mr Eustice insisted the changes did not stray far from previous agreements in place that allowed the UK government to intervene in exceptional circumstances.

However, Jersey ministers have said the island's States could still reject any such attempts.

Senator Ian Gorst said that, in order for them to take effect, they would have to be brought as an Order in Council to be considered by the States.

He said he was confident the States could simply reject them as the territory "remained absolutely legally in control of our waters".

Drivers will have to pay to use public charging points on the Isle of Man in future, Manx Utilities says.

Teachers could receive lump sums of up to £2,850 after a deal was agreed by a union and the government.

The UK Fisheries Bill, which includes a clause allowing the UK to impose fishing rules on the Crown dependencies, has become law.

The legislation includes a permissive extent clause, which allows the UK to impose new fishing rules on Guernsey, Jersey, and the Isle of Man after Brexit - however, constitutionally each island's government has to give its consent to any law.

Each island is a self-governing state, with the power to debate and make its own laws.

Earlier this month Guernsey's External Relations Minister Jonathan Le Tocq said any move to extend the law without consent would be contrary to the island's "important and historic constitutional relationship with the Crown".
