Council leader weighs in amid outcry
The leader of Douglas Council says he was 'surprised' Bushy's didn't win the TT beer tent contract.
David Christian says councillors had an 'outstanding relationship' with owner Martin Brunnschweiler, who had operated in the Bottleneck car park for two decades.
The Hooded Ram brewery will now run the site during TT fortnight until 2022.
Since the Council's decision, Bushy's has looked at a number of new sites - which could result in two beer tents in close proximity.
Mr Christian says, despite it coming as a shock, the tender process was legitimate:
Consultation open on plans to formally recognise the heritage of Douglas Head
Fundraiser to keep St John Ambulance emergency fleet on the road
Ayre and Michael MHKs request meeting with commissioners over rates
Data breach impact rises sharply as cyber incidents affect thousands on Isle of Man
