This is a hustings with a twist! The theme will be people power - so this is as much about you as it is about the candidates who want your vote! We are inviting you to host a conversation about how you and your community would want to be involved in decision making in GM, and contribute to a big GM conversation about People Power via an online pol.is link. Plus, via livestream, you'll watch the GM Mayoral By-Election Candidates share their answers to a set of questions put forward by community groups as well as their opening and closing statements, and talk about their answers. We are inviting you to host a party with your neighbours, friends or community groups to watch along - this could be in your house, pub or community centre! You'll need good wifi, a facebook account, and some party vibes. With a helpful guide from us, you'll facilitate a conversation about what you want from a people-powered democracy in GM and whether you think the candidates are going to bring your vision to life. Sign up to host a party and we will send you info about support/info sessions and a helpful pack with info about how to access the livestream, how to guide the activity and how to share your discussions to feed into the big conversation about a people-powered GM!! All candidates have been invited to this live-streamed hustings. We cannot guarantee their attendance. This event is being organised in a strictly party-neutral way, with equal and balanced opportunity for each candidate to share their vision. We aren't promoting any political party over another. Your views and votes are your own and democracy is best when there's a wide range of opinions being shared respectfully! Please don't use your watch along to push one particular political party or candidate. It's a chance to listen to each other, talk with compassion and curiosity, and connect across divides. https://actionnetwork.org/events/gm-mayoral-hustings-host-a-watch-along-party
