Still concerned about 'Winter' Light Night

Many churches in Dundee have expressed their concern at the lack of acknowledgement of Christmas in the forthcoming 'Winter Light Night' event. When the proposal for Winter Light Night was discussed in the City Council I and a number of my colleagues raised our concern, you can read my speech here.

People in Dundee celebrate Christmas whatever their religious views. I think that it is wrong to downgrade the role of Christmas. I hope that the City Council will listen to the churches and to the other voices making their views known asking for a rethink.
