The Guardian’s Severin Carrell is reporting from the constituency of Glasgow North East to find out what issues people there care about most – and he wants your help

The Guardian will be reporting from Glasgow North East ahead of the General Election, as part of a series of pieces from across the country focused on finding out what matters to the people who live there.

Glasgow North East is a key Labour-SNP marginal, which has twice changed hands in the last two general elections. It has some of the most deprived neighbourhoods in the UK, with amongst the lowest life expectancy rates. Given how popular the SNP is in Scotland overall, this seat is a key test of whether Jeremy Corbyn’s anti-austerity platform can cut through.

If you live in Glasgow North East, can you tell us what will decide your vote? We’d like to understand the big issues facing you and your family and which policies matter to you. How happy are you with the state of housing, work, community relations, policing and health services?

Who has an impact on your community that we should meet? Are there issues in your family that create division? Are you thinking of switching your vote? Perhaps you feel disengaged from national politics altogether.

We’d also like to know how you are following this election, whether through traditional media such as TV and newspapers or online news sites or social media. Do you belong to local Facebook or WhatsApp groups?
