This evening candidates in the upcoming local elections will be fielding questions from Post reporters and readers in a bid to secure your vote on May 3.

The hustings will be streamed live via our Facebook page at 6.30pm.

Confirmed attendees are Andrew Boff of the Conservatives, Dominic Twomey of Labour and Matthew Crowley of the Green Party.

A BNP spokesman has confirmed their candidates will not be taking up their invitation and the Liberal Democrats are not fielding any candidates in the borough.

Please send us your questions via Facebook or tweet us @BDPost.
