Mec Vannin

Mec Vannin (Manx, meaning Sons of Mann) is a political party operating in the Isle of Man. Formed in 1962, it seeks to revoke the status of Man as a British self-governing Crown dependency and establish a completely sovereign state, which would be a republic.

It describes its aims as being:

To achieve national independence for Mann as a sovereign state, based on a republican form of government. To further and safeguard the interests of Mann. To protect the individual and collective rights of its people. —

It is sometimes referred to as the "Manx Nationalist Party" (usually not by members), but this can lead to confusion with the Manx National Party, which was a name used by two other parties.
