Bristol West hustings with Annabel Tall, Conservative party; Molly Scott Cato, Green party; Stephen Williams, Lib Dems. 
Labour party candidate Thangam Debbonaire said she would not be attending these hustings due to 'a preexisting diary commitment'. Which may be code for her having been instructed not to attend by the Labour party South West regional office because she was one of the MP's labelled 'Blairite' for joining the plot to unseat Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn in the summer of 2016 against the wishes of the Labour party membership.
