Trade unions have urged the public to join a demonstration against savage cuts to lifeline services in West Dunbartonshire.
West Dunbartonshire Joint Trade Unions, in association with Clydebank Trades Council and various community partners, are organising a demonstration outside the local authority’s Church Street offices to coincide with a full WDC budget setting meeting today (March 1).
Faced with a record budget deficit of more than £14million, councillors will this week decide what to cut – with a list of savage savings options drawn up, including cutting the school week, axing breakfast clubs and a switch to three weekly bin collections.
