Pestering Politicians in Perth

Posted on by Sally Hinchcliffe

Conference season is upon us, and that means only one thing – getting out and about round Scotland to talk to politicians, local and national, about our policy pledges.

Thanks to Esmond and Emilia who gave up a Saturday lunchtime to talk to Labour Party members at their spring conference.

Armed with our postcards, and our fabulous new banner, they had some good chats and met a mostly enthusiastic reception from most of the people they chatted to.

These kind of events really help raise the campaign’s profile – so can you join us at one or other of the coming conferences this month? You can join GoBike members in Glasgow for the Greens and Conservatives’ events, or join Emilia again in Perth to meet the Lib Dems, or some of the Aberdeen Cycle Forum to meet the SNP in Aberdeen on the 18th March.

Alternatively, if you are attending as a delegate yourself, why not pop out and say hello?

    Sorry I missed you at Perth. I have had a photo taken; if you e-mail me I’ll send it.
