Earlier this month, we were delighted to be joined by Alison Evison to discuss the outcome of the Scottish local elections. Alison was re-elected as an independent councillor within Aberdeenshire Council this May after standing down as a Scottish Labour candidate.

In this Power Hour, Alison talked about her own path into local politics, her time as President of CoSLA, the reasons preventing better representation in local government, how ringfencing impacts local decisions and much more.

Please sit back and enjoy this fascinating watch, shining a light on those who make crucial decisions in local government.
