In pictures: The Lincoln Debate

Debate: Look back at the best pictures from the historic The Lincoln Debate.

The historic Lincoln Debate, held at the LPAC, saw five of the six MP candidates for the city answer questions from a 200-strong audience.

The 90-minute programme, which was a unique collaboration between The Lincolnite, Lincolnshire Echo and BBC Radio Lincolnshire, was broadcast live on May 4.

Conservative Karl McCartney was the only candidate who declined the invitation to attend the debate, citing concerns over the date and location.

However, those who did attend, as well as those watching at home, had their say on social media using the #LincolnDebate hashtag.

The highlights of the programme can be read again on the liveblog.

Audience members also spoke to The Lincolnite about the highlights for them; as did the candidates.
