The Guardian will be reporting from Stirling next week ahead of the General Election, as part of a series of pieces from across the country focused on finding out what matters to the people who live there. For example, Scottish Tory MP Stephen Kerr is defending one of the smallest majorities in the UK, of just 148 votes, against high profile SNP candidate Alyn Smith. Will the contest be dominated by Brexit and independence or more local issues?
If you live in Stirling, can you tell us what this has meant? We’d like to understand the big issues facing you and your family and which policies matter to you. How happy are you with the state of housing, work, community relations, policing and health services?
Who has an impact on your community that we should meet? Are there issues in your family that create division? Are you thinking of switching your vote? Or perhaps you feel disengaged from national politics altogether.
We’d also like to know how you following this election whether traditional media such as TV and newspapers or online news sites or social media. Do you belong to local Facebook or WhatsApp groups?
