To Newhaven and one of my favourite parts of Edinburgh today. Following the creation of a deep-water port there over 500 years ago, Newhaven developed into a thriving fishing village and shipbuilding centre. It still retains the feel of a village in the city.
Our team, comprising Members of the UK and Scottish Parliaments as well as local organisers, took to the streets of Newhaven as residents welcomed in a sunny new week. The old fishermen’s houses were a welcome relief for campaigners’ weary legs after the newly built blocks of flats with their defective lifts.
23 days to go to polling day and awareness of the European elections – and press coverage – is starting to increase. The motivation of the Scottish Labour candidates is high … speaking for myself, I am looking forward to more campaigning, listening to opinions and communicating the Social Europe message across Scotland in the weeks to come.
But can somebody please do something about the lifts?
