There was a good turnout for a pubic meeting in Douglas last night called to oppose the Government's campaign for a national speed limit.

Those present included MHK's Dominic Delaney and Quintin Gill, 'Supporters of Driving Safely', the group behind the recent full page protest advert in a local paper, and others from the nolimit.org.im website
