Cost of coronavirus and employment among priorities for voters

Douglas South by-election candidates attend requisition meeting

The candidates vying to become the next MHK for Douglas South had a chance to impress voters last night.

A requisition meeting held at Scoill Vallajeelt, gave an opportunity to those who live in the constituency to quiz, potentially, their next Tynwald member, and see where they stand on local and national issues.

Local Democracy Reporter Aaron Ibanez went along, and brings us this report:

And the candidates for Douglas South are as follows:

Anthony Allen, Pamela Birney-Malarkey, Claire Christian, Ian Clanton, David Fowler, Andrew Jessopp, Michael Josem, Kevin Oliphant-Smith, Lon Pinkerton, and Paul Quine.

If you are voting next week the polls will be open from 8am to 8pm. 

Your polling stations will be Pulrose Methodist Church, Anagh Coar School and Scoill Vallajeelt.
