Boot gets the boot in Glenfaba and Peel

All change in the west of the Island

Two government ministers have lost their seats after failing to secure re-election in Glenfaba and Peel.

Geoffrey Boot and Ray Harmer have not been re-elected.

Instead it's a move to the House of Keys for MLC Kate Lord-Brennan and a return to the house for former MHK Tim Crookall.

Ms Lord-Brennan topped the poll with 2150 votes:

Mr Cookall, who gained 1134 votes, said he will do his 'best for the west':

Mr Harmer, the Policy and Reform Minister, ranked third, with 1073 votes, followed by Trevor Cowin, Leo Cussons and Mikey Lee.

Mr Boot - who remains as the Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister until his successor is appointed - polled second to last with 273 votes.  

The result - the last to be declared in the 2021 Isle of Man General Election - means four government ministers have lost their seats.
