Proud occasion for Keys members
Tynwald Day 2017 is a proud and daunting occasion for some of the 12 MHKs elected for the first time at last September's general election.
Their presence on Tynwald Hill at the centre of today's ceremony in St John's, is a point in the time-honoured occasion's history.
Tynwald members, with their partners and family, gathered on the green in finery reserved for this most public event, ahead of official proceedings.
Ramsey MHK Dr Alex Allinson told us the annual event has a profound and unique parliamentary purpose:
Person suffers 'significant injuries' in 'serious assault' near Peel
Business case for horse trams to be put before Tynwald in July
Plans to turn 'underused space' in central Douglas into wellness retreat
Employment grievance 'upheld' against board of Peel Commissioners
