What's next for Lib Van?

Two Lib Van candidates fail to get a seat in the House of Keys

What's next for Lib Van after a disappointing result in the Douglas by elections?

South Douglas saw former member Bill Malarkey, return to the House of Keys. 

He topped the polls yesterday with 598 votes.

North Douglas voters named businessman Ralph Peake their champion, who won with 604 votes, and is new to politics.

Both results meant neither of Lib Van's candidates, Keith Fitton and Maire Booth, were successful

Mrs Booth says the problem is awareness of party politics in the Isle of Man.
