CBE for Allan Bell; other Manx names on list

The annual Queen's Birthday Honours list has been revealed - and there are three notable Manx names on the roll.

Ramsey woman Rosemary Mazzone will be awarded a British Empire Medal for services to youth and the community.

Chief Minister Allan Bell will receive a CBE; whilst the President of Tynwald, Clare Christian, becomes an OBE.

Both are being recognised for services to the Island, within and outside of the political realm.

The Chief Minister said it was 'quite a surprise' - but he's staying tight-lipped about what's coming next.
