Spokes/CUK Election hustings
Spokes and Cycling UK are holding a joint election hustings, on Monday 16 March, for the 2026 Scottish Parliament election, to hear from Holyrood candidates on cycling and related policies.
Rather than the usual hustings approach, which can be rather boring, our meeting will comprise several sections, with speakers undertaking Initiation, Interrogation, Combination, Clarification and Education, as in the agenda below.
Speakers
All the main parties currently represented at Holyrood have been invited to send along a candidate for an Edinburgh, Lothians or Lothians List seat. So far, they have…
- Green – Chas Booth [councillor; candidate for Lothians List; Spokes member]
- Conservative – Jo Mowat [councillor; candidate for Edinburgh Central]
- Labour – Daniel Johnson [MSP; standing again in Edinburgh Southern]
- LibDem – Cllr Sally Pattle [West Lothian Councillor and Chair of SEStran]
- Reform – awaited
- SNP – Kate Campbell [councillor; candidate for Edinburgh Eastern, Musselburgh & Tranent]
- Chair/Maestro – Brendan Paddy, Spokes member, Director of Ramblers Scotland
