Celebrating a democratic milestone

Keys to revisit former home

150 years of democracy in the Isle of Man will be marked later this month.

A special afternoon sitting of the House of Keys will be held in the old House of Keys in Castletown on 14 March - if members approve the proposal next week.

The introduction of public elections in 1867 were considered major steps in political democracy becoming a reality for Manx people.

Chief Minister Howard Quayle says it would be a fitting nod to tradition.
