Commissioner wants ceremony back in ancient capital
A Castletown Commissioner’s campaign to make sure the Lieutenant Governor is sworn in at Castle Rushen has gone to Tynwald.
On Tynwald Day in St John’s, Colin Leather presented a petition for redress of grievance about the ceremony moving to Douglas.
Mr Leather says traditionally it was held in the Ancient Capital – and he’s determined to reverse the decision to move it.
He says he’s already written to the Queen about the issue:
Further delay to TT schedule due to 'non-racing operational matter'
Clerk of the Course confirms change to proceedings
Crash which closed the Mountain Road ahead of racing 'not too serious'
Police give update after incident at Brandywell delays TT schedule
Fine for pair who brought drugs to Island in campervan toilet
"I'm sure this is a wonderful TT for you all but rules are rules"
TT campers in 'high spirits' despite rain affecting race week
'Costa del Ballaugh' one week, mud the next
Delay to TT schedule following Mountain Road crash
Clerk of the Course confirms one-hour delay
