Protest suit on display to mark historic Tynwald Day effort
The protest suit worn by a Manx gay rights campaigner will be returned to St Johns today.
Manx National Heritage will be displaying Alan Shea s famous Tynwald Day clothing from thirty years ago as part of its Collecting Pride project.
On 5 July 1991 he presented a petition of grievance to Tynwald at the open air ceremony calling for homosexuality to be decriminalised on Island.
He was joined on the day by members of Outrage – a UK based gay pressure group – to stage his protest.
Dressed in his mock prison uniform, and with his head shaved, he deliberately drew parallels between the treatment of gay people here and Nazi persecution of homosexuals during the Second World War.
