Conservatives in East Renfrewshire expect another SNP-Labour coalition to run the council after blaming “national events” for their own performance.
The group retained five councillors on East Renfrewshire Council but leader Gordon Wallace said he was “disappointed” to not achieve the results he had hoped for.
SNP group leader Tony Buchanan confirmed on Friday that talks will be held this week over a coalition. The SNP, Labour and independent councillor Danny Devlin have ruled together over the last two terms.
