There& #39;s a @cne_siar by-election in #Harris & #SouthLochs ward & I& #39;m standing, as I love living in the middle!

I& #39;ve visited folk to speak about issues they have locally & want to speak with more of you.

These pics introduce some of the issues & I& #39;ll explain whyhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten" aria-label="Emoji: Rückhand Zeigefinger nach unten">

1/4

#1 Self explanatory &
everyone& #39;s screaming for it.

Council level, we can help represent to higher levels & insulate problems.

#2 Promote #Crofting & keep subsidies for actual crofters!

#3 General council service improvements, like road safty.

#4 END fly tipping!

There& #39;s a hundred issues.

But, the 4 pics start to grow conversations.

i.e. #3, just road safety, at Coop?

No. Bush is overgrown,
causing issues with:

- Pedestrian #SocialDistancing
- Bus stop users not seeing bus
- Wheelchair & pram access

& speaking bus shelters...

Last, I promise!

Many in South Lochs + Harris, & at near me at Airidh A& #39; Bhruaich, use busses.

At #Stornoway bus station,
why do we not get a shelter?

Every other bus stances has a shelter.

Tourists use a bus between our ferry terminals, still none!

Someone asked where to put the https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="❎" title="Negatives quadratisches Kreuzchen" aria-label="Emoji: Negatives quadratisches Kreuzchen">

Well the short answer is that here in Scotland, we don& #39;t.

Here, we use numbers.

As there are 3 candidates, we pic our favorite & put a 1 in their box.

You can also pic your 2nd & 3rd choices, too.

To drive between Harris & South Lochs, without more than doubling your journey, you must pass my house.

I quite like visitors, so feel free to https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😷" title="Gesicht mit Mundschutz" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Mundschutz"> & stop past for a visit.

I have been a trades-unionist since being offshore, & most recently with @NUJofficial, the National Union of Journalists.

I work regularly, at director level, for Oil & Gas, BigPharma, Banking, & #NHS in both England & Scotland, as a top level IT Consultant.

I also worked on one-on-one tasks, that were far more rewarding.

So, yes, I can communicate with multinational firms, I& #39;d just rather not need to.

My job, would be to work, hard, for my constituents, 1-2-1.

I& #39;d the pleasure to retire early, so I& #39;ve the time to do it, too
