SPURTLE HUSTINGS

Speakers and arrangements finalised for Spurtle's Edinburgh North Eastern & Leith hustings

Candidates were finalised yesterday for the Edinburgh North Eastern & Leith constituency in the Scottish Parliamentary elections.

On this page, we will publish responses from candidates who, for whatever reason, were unable to answer questions or have answers read out at the Spurtle's General Election hustings on 24 June. See our summary here.

There were many other questions for which there was no time on the night. All candidates have been invited to answer these, although we recognise that some may be too busy at this stage in their campaigns to do so.

Spurtle’s hustings for the Edinburgh Northern & Leith constituency took place last night, with numbers attending the Zoom event never dropping below 72 (including 6 organisers) and probably exceeding that on shared devices.
