Concerns that proposed parliamentary boundary changes are a “precursor to the removal of East Renfrewshire Council” have been branded “scaremongering”.
Councillors across the political spectrum agreed planned Scottish Parliament constituency alterations are “not acceptable” and called for an inquiry to find a “better solution”.
However, they disagreed on the risks created by the proposals, with Cllr Gordon Wallace, Conservative, raising concerns for the future of the local authority.
