Hundreds attend promenade march

Abort67 protestors also present

Hundreds of people massed on Douglas promenade yesterday (Sun 21st) despite the poor weather.

Around 300 attended the main Women of Mann march from the War Memorial.

However, a small number of protestors from Abort67, were also present on their route, continuing their protest against changes to the Island's abortion laws.

Before the march arrived at this spot, the marchers were told to be silent as they passed by the alternative protest.

A number of politicians were present in the march, including Claire Bettison, David Cretney and Garff MHKs Daphne Caine and Martyn Perkins.
