'Glasgow is a complete mess, to say it is in crisis, I think would be a compliment”.
Glasgow Labour will not present budget proposals to plug a gap of just over £60m, as the party pledges to “stand up for the people of this city”.
He added: “While the SNP continues to fight for every pound and the powers to better deliver for citizens, Glasgow Labour just follows their leaders’ instruction to carp from the sidelines.” Cllr Redmond said his group had taken a “monumental decision” which had been made because Glasgow is “a complete mess, to say it is in crisis, I think would be a compliment”.“Nobody has been under any illusion about the scale of the challenges for this city,” Cllr Redmond added. “The city centre is an absolute eyesore, it needs investment and it needs it now — and yet all we’re seeing is cut after cut.
Cllr Bell, who will put forward a budget on Thursday [February 16], said Labour’s response has “zero credibility”.
