SNP members have blasted Conservative-run South Ayrshire Council for spending tens of thousands of pounds on the King’s Coronation.
The party’s Prestwick branch had claimed one of its members had been told that the council had spent £35,000 on coronation bunting and Union flags that appeared in South Ayrshire communities.
This was disputed by the council, which told us that it had spent around £15,000 on decor, including bunting that will be used for future unrelated events.
