“Council Elections: Time for action”
Donald Wilson and Carmel
Smith selected to run for Sighthill Gorgie.
Donald says “Having lived in the area most of my adult life I
have seen many changes but the community spirit continues to be strong. I have
worked hard with individuals,
local organisations, community groups
and charities to get things done. In addition to my work as Lord Provost I have
continued to hold regular surgeries and championed local issues such as a
surface crossing for Calder Rd.
and saving community centres like St Brides and the Gorgie War Memorial Hall. I
joined the Council in 1999 first and foremost to fight for my local area and I
have always done that.
Carmel says “Labour have always been the champions of working class people and the
less fortunate in our society. We’ve always stood for improving education,
employment and
equality; and for
helping the less able members of our society. I will work with local
people to build safe, strong communities where families can flourish in a
fairer more equal City.”
