October Week


Campaigning went well again yesterday (a bit cold though). About 2000 leaflets delivered over the weekend and quite a few doors knocked in the Oxgangs area. Not too many Council meetings scheduled this week, mostly due to the school holidays I think. Means I don't have surgeries tonight but will get to the Ratho Community Council (definitely got the date right this week !) and possibly the Currie Youth Club meeting after. Managed to tackle the ever growing pile of e-mails in my inbox so if you did get a reply from me today apologies for the delay.

If you weren't already aware, today (18 October) is the UK's first Anti Slavery day. Its being promoted by a leading children's rights organsation called ECPAT who work to highlight issues around child trafficking and exploitation. You can find out more and sign their on-line petition at http://www.ecpat.org.uk/ and look for the logo above.
