AN SNP group has accused Labour of creating a "discriminatory" pay scheme after Glasgow City Council announced plans to dismiss and rehire around 23,000 workers under new contracts.

The Glasgow SNP Group has blamed the former Labour administration, which governed the council until 2017, for introducing the current pay arrangements.
