I was disappointed by that response initially, but to be fair (and I always tend to forget this) Almond ward (Cllr Lang's and my area) doesn't include a huge amount of the city and extends quite far west, so it's good that he is thinking about the whole geographical reach - he should, as a Councillor for the whole ward. I did ask him a follow-up question that was more specific about Queensferry Road and the area surrounding the Royal High School - hoping he might come back to me on that when he's back at work.
I genuinely didn't ask my original question to him as a Gotcha - I realised that I had seen plenty of requests from him for people to share their views to him via Facebook and email etc, but that I didn't know what he thought about the measures. So...
