Hustings in Crieff

On Wednesday 7th March, I took part in a hustings in Crieff run by the local discussion group. It was well attended by members of the public and there were five speakers on the panel. The subject was Trident - do we need a replacement? Four out of the five panel members were anti-trident and one was pro. The debate was lively with many good questions and points coming from the audience. This was my first hustings and I enjoyed it immensely. Given that Trident is something I feel very strongly about, I felt I did well in getting the party's point across and I received favourable feedback.
