Dundee SSP » Perth http://dundeessp.org/blog Scottish Socialist Party branches from Dundee Thu, 10 Jun 2010 19:28:36 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc SSP holds stalls in Tayside and North East http://dundeessp.org/blog/2009/05/30/ssp-stalls-in-tayside-and-north-east/ http://dundeessp.org/blog/2009/05/30/ssp-stalls-in-tayside-and-north-east/#comments Sat, 30 May 2009 12:34:56 +0000 alangdundee http://dundeessp.org/blog/?p=799 As well as the regular stalls in Dundee, the SSP have also held a number of stalls over the region in the last few weeks. Activity has included stalls in Aberdeen, Montrose, Arbroath and Perth.

We have managed to dish out thousands of leaflets to passers by to let them know two things that not only are we standing in the European elections but that we are active in the area.

Today was glorious sunshine in Montrose surrounded by the excellent background music of the festival going on behind us. We look forward to our semi regular stalls in Arbroath and Montrose – the SSP, not just on the streets at an election.

SSP members are reminded that the elections for the European candidate list will be taking place over the next week or so. The regional hustings in Dundee and Edinburgh are taking place this Sunday – contact your branch or branch secretary if you have not received details.
