Stirling Council’s leader revealed he was bullied at school as he asked fellow elected members to keep open a “pathway to redemption” for suspended councillor Danny Gibson.
Labour’s Councillor Gibson, who represents Stirling North, was found to have breached a council code of conduct and given a five-month suspension for bullying a senior official following a Standards Commission for Scotland hearing last month.
The commission had ruled his behaviour “entirely inappropriate and unacceptable”.
