MRA says it's time to set records to rights
Manx homosexuals prosecuted before their rights were recognised and extended in 1992 should be pardoned - according to the Manx Rainbow Association.
The subject has been resurrected by UK Prime Minister Theresa May's announcement of a commitment to implement the so-called Alan Turing law.
The WWII code-breaker was pardoned posthumously in 2013 - decades after his conviction in 1952, when he was chemically castrated for his sexual orientation.
Director Lee Vorster says it's time to set the history records to rights here.
He explains why it isn't better to simply leave the past where it is:
More coastal overtopping expected as strong winds continue
Full lighting capability restored at Isle of Man Airport
Snaefell Mountain Railway out of action after storm damage
Council confident for Manor Pub's future
