Juan Kelly says current process is flawed
A local businessman is supporting calls for more forms of direct democracy in the Manx political process.
Juan Kelly spoke at an event in Douglas where he backed Infrastructure Minister Phil Gawne's calls for the introduction of e-petitions and the right to recall parliament.
