South-East voters line up for question time

ELECTION hopefuls fielded questions from South-East District residents at St Martin’s Parish Hall on Saturday.

The drop-in, the first of its kind, saw islanders queuing up for their chance to quiz prospective deputies before Wednesday’s election.

‘More or less, by going through their manifestos, I have made up my mind,’ said George Edwards, a retired builder from St Martin’s.

‘I have gone for a couple [of candidates] who have gone with common sense and with Guernsey issues. But I find that with the manifestos, you only needed to print one – they are virtually all the same.’
