A man who set up a petition calling for a vote of no confidence in the government has hit back at suggestions backers aren't real.
Jonathan Smith organised a petition on change.org calling for the vote, saying no Tynwald member would be prepared to call one.
His petition has now been signed by just over 1,300 people in three days.
He's thanked people for their support and said those claiming some signatures weren't from real people were simple an attempt to undermine it.
