Midlothian north and
Musselburgh Candidate
Hazel Macaulay
I feel that teenagers and young adults are often overlooked,
through me you can get your point across and be heard!
The issues important to me are:
1. Midlothian should have more places for people our age to
go. Young people only really have two options; to go into Edinburgh
or to stay at home. The problem with going uptown is that you need
money and why would you want to stay at home when you can go
out with friends? I think that rather than just wandering the streets
there should be a place where teenagers can go.
2. My second idea is for leisure activities to become free
within Midlothian. I don’t think it is right for adults to tell us to
become active and then charge us money to use the facilities. I
understand that money is tight but I’m sure cuts could be made
elsewhere to cover the costs of this.
Midlothian north and
Musselburgh Candidate
Jorji Laing
I will fight for what the young people of Scotland want as I am
passionate that we can make a change
Issues important to me are:
1. Raising the Minimum Wage
2. Better Training Opportunities for People Who Have Left School
3. Lowering the Price of Transport for People who are Still in Full-Time
Education
4. Better Part-Time Job Opportunities for People Who Are Still in Full-Time
