Election hustings (online): Tuesday, 12 April 2022

Living Streets Edinburgh election hustings will give the public the chance to hear candidates from the main political parties speak about their party’s plans to make Edinburgh better for ‘everyday walking and wheeling’. Voting in the council elections takes place on May 5th, 2022.

We will briefly outline our Manifesto for Walking – which you can see here – before hearing from candidates from all the main political parties about their plans for walking in Edinburgh. This will be followed by questions from members of the public.

We have invited the transport spokespeople from all the major parties. As we are politically impartial, we will ensure that everyone has an equal chance to contribute. Representatives confirmed so far are:

Scottish Green Party – Kayleigh O’Neill

Scottish Liberal Democratic Party – Cllr Kevin Lang

Scottish Labour – Mhairi Munro-Brian

Scottish National Party – Cllr Lesley Macinnes

We are delighted that the event will be chaired by leading Scottish transport journalist Alastair Dalton.

We hope you can join us from 5.00 to 6.30 pm on Tuesday 12 April. To register, just click this link : Webinar Registration – Zoom
