Turner to stand as an 'Independent Green'

Tuesday, 23 August 2016 00:00

A Douglas Councillor has announced her intention to stand as an MHK in Douglas East.

Cat Turner has declared ahead of September's vote - she's a member of the newly formed, but as yet unregistered, Isle of Man Green Party.

Due to this she says she'll stand as an 'Independent Green' until the party is fully constituted and she can apply for endorsement in due course.
