Claire Wells takes up the role
The new leader of Douglas Council says personalities need to be put aside.
Claire Wells was elected to the role earlier this week - taking over from David Christian.
The vote, amongst the twelve current councillors, was split five/seven with fellow councillor Devon Watson.
Mrs Wells says to be effective, in its current form, the council needs to club together:
'Unnecessary' delays left electricity customer in limbo
Manx Utilities classifies all pensioners as vulnerable people
'The Island needs to be able to compete' against other destinations
FOI revealed the Island spent more than £170,000 on influencers
Public urged to consult on capacity
Views wanted on new code of practice
Sixth election candidate for Middle
James Cochrane to stand for the House of Keys
