West Dunbartonshire Council’s SNP group have been accused of ‘playground politics’ by the local authority’s deputy leader.
Michelle McGinty made the comments last week, as members debated an SNP motion highlighting a manifesto pledge to put £1,000 in the pocket of every West Dunbartonshire resident.
The SNP’s Jonathan McColl said it was “completely bizarre” that “Labour members had voted against supporting their own manifesto”, whilst Labour’s David McBride said that the motion highlighted the impact Labour administrations at Westminster and Holyrood could have on hard pressed local families.
