Tynwald Day celebrated in Westminster

The government now plans to celebrate Tynwald day in Westminster each year.

A formal event was held at Speaker's House in London earlier this week, hosted by the Speaker of the House of Commons, Sir Lindsay Hoyle.

Sir Lindsay said the gathering of over 200 guests, including UK parliamentarians and diplomats, celebrated the Island's unique democratic heritage and connections with the UK.

He added the evening on Wednesday, July 1 was also about making sure the Island continues to be heard and understood in Westminster.
