Am Pàipear, the local community newspaper, invites all in Uist to attend this debate – and to hear and contribute “island voices” on both sides…
Incidentally, the Am Pàipear website is currently offline for maintenance – which means that their Guthan/Voices page is also out of action at the moment. Their Facebook page remains active, however. And coincidentally, the online stream of An Radio* is also currently in abeyance as the station shifts premises. Despite such temporary glitches, there are in the meantime still plenty of Island Voices to be heard on this site!
