FOLLOWING the first live TV debate in the SNP leadership race, the three candidates are set to go head to head once again tonight as the contest to replace Nicola Sturgeon continues.
Four hustings have already taken place so far plus last night’s STV debate.
Here’s all you need to know about tonight’s event.
When are the hustings?
Tonight’s hustings will take place in Johnstone from 7pm-9pm.
How can I watch the hustings?
Following an initial row over media access, all bar one of the hustings thus far have been livestreamed on the party’s official social media channels.
Anyone wishing to watch this evening should head over to the SNP’s Facebook, YouTube or Twitter channel where a livestream should be available towards the beginning of the event.
What happened in the STV debate?
During Tuesday night’s debate, Kate Forbes questioned Humza Yousaf’s competence as she hit out at his record in government.
Yousaf hit back by telling Forbes she had not held a government position which focused on delivering public services.
Elsewhere, Ash Regan said she had spoken with all independence parties on Tuesday.
However, Scottish Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie said claims they were “excited” by her pitch were “false”.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
