Lonan3 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 The only one who stands out on that list for me is Peter Kelly - a very down to earth guy with a genuine respect for Manx traditions, as well as someone whose voice will be respected when new 'developments' are mooted.

Charles Flynn Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Yes Peter is a good guy but I agree. They will go for the recent members of Tynwald. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
