Former President of Tynwald Noel Cringle OBE dies

Sat, 28 Aug 2021


Tributes are being paid to former President of Tynwald Noel Cringle who has died.

Mr Cringle passed away at the age of 83 yesterday.

President of Tynwald, Laurence Skelly, said: “Today Tynwald and the Island mourn the passing of a political giant. Noel was widely known as a farmer and auctioneer, and as an untiring supporter of every aspect of Island life, especially sport and the arts. But it is above all as a parliamentarian that he will be remembered. In a career spanning five decades he served in many different capacities and ultimately distinguished himself as the longest-serving President of Tynwald in the history of the role.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time of loss.”
