Proud day for Douglas Mayor

Proceedings underway at Tynwald

Proceedings at this year's Tynwald Day are underway.

Politicians, dignatories, members of the legal profession, officials and guests have been arriving at St Johns since early this morning.

Tynwald court holds a special service in the Royal Chapel before new laws are promulgated in a ceremony which stretches as far back as 1417.

A number of petitions for redress of grievance will be presented by members of the public.

Speaking as he arrived at, Mayor of Douglas John Skinner told James Davis it was a very proud day for him.

There's full coverage on Manx Radio throughout the day.
