New commissioner delighted with result

by isleofman.com 25th April 2008
Voters in Onchan proved they wanted change in yesterday's elections.

Nine commissioners defended their seats, but only five survived.

Derek Crellin topped the poll, and was returned with June Kelly, Brian Stowell, Terry Black and Keith Watterson.

New faces on the board are those of Ernie Thorn and Steven Babb.

Mr Babb, standing on the Liberal Vannin ticket came a close third and was delighted to find himself catapulted into Manx politics (audio file attached):
