Griffiths Watch- Edinburgh South constituency

Closer to home than Rose Gentle's election opposition against Nu-Lab's Adam Killgram in East Kilbride is my local Edinburgh South constituency fight against sitting Nu-Lab MP Nigel Griffiths.

The Edinburgh South StTW branch has organised a hustings debate on Thursday at 7.30 pm at Gillespie's High School, Bruntsfield Links. The organisers have received acceptances from all the Edinburgh South candidates except dear Nigel, who was apparently fearful of a biased Chair, or perhaps a biased audience (i.e. his electorate).

As previously noted, I haven't a vote myself, but hope to attend (kids at their Dad's that night) to hear the SSP, SNP, Green and Tory candidates account for themselves.



Incidentally, dear Nigel's self-promoting website has no subsections for Election 2005, and no appointments as far as I can see for any other Hustings debate. And we're on a countdown of days now till May 5th. Talk to us, Nigel!
