Douglas South MHK to stand for area as independent

Another MHK has now confirmed his plans to stand for re-election later this year.

Douglas South representative, Paul Quine MHK, has confirmed he intends to run for the seat once more in September as an independent candidate.

Mr Quine was elected to his current post in August last year alongside Claire Christian MHK following a by-election in the constituency.

Making the announcement, Mr Quine says he will 'vigorously stand up for the issues which matter in the area as well as the wider Island, ensuring the people of Douglas South, and the Isle of Man, have strong and principled representation.'
