Council leader Susan Aitken has urged Prime Minister Boris Johnson to take “immediate action” to help struggling households through the cost of living crisis.
The Glasgow council chief said one measure the UK Government could take would be to “adopt a much more generous public sector pay policy for staff working in local government, the NHS and elsewhere”.
This week it has been predicted that the average household fuel bill will hit £4,200 by January and Cllr Aitken said increasing costs would create “severe financial trauma for tens of thousands in Glasgow”.
