Edinburgh's council leader is facing calls to resign after an extraordinary meeting where he failed to pass a budget and one of his councillors quit - branding Labour's spending plans 'confusing and misleading'.
A Liberal Democrat budget was passed in a shock vote which saw Green councillors voting tactically to allow Labour's proposals to fall in the first round of voting.
The defeat raises serious questions for the minority administration over whether it can continue running the council - especially given they are now left with one fewer councillor.
