See UK-wide hustings questions for the UK General Election 2019 - and ask a question yourself if you like. Login to answer questions.

The Online Election Hustings is a place where people ask questions, and other people - non-aligned, party activists, or candidates themselves - answer them. Anybody whether they're a logged in member or not can ask a question, but only logged in members can answer them; logged in members can also upvote questions, and questions asked by logged in members automatically start off higher up the list than questions asked anonymously.

When you register you declare what - if any - affiliation you might have; people who share affiliations with people who answer questions will ultimately have the ability to verify answers as being good representatives of that party's view. Questions answered by candidates show up higher up the list, so you can get a better feel for how that party views any given issue.

As a social network for democracy, the Online Election Hustings works best when you, the users, help support and promote it - share its existence with your friends, ask and answer questions, and persuade your candidates and party workers to register and join in the discussions too.
