A few months back the Labour Group on Renfrewshire Council put forward a motion condemning the proposed cuts in the Tory / Libdem budget. The motion fell because the combined votes of the SNP, Tories and Libdems voted it down, they refused to condemn the Westminster Tory budget cuts. Those cuts are now biting and I will highlight some of them on a regular basis.
The SNP and Libdem candidates for Holyrood in our council Mackay SNP, McCartin Libdem, Adam SNP and presumably the other SNP candidate Doig who is not a councillor refused to criticise or condemn the Cameron Clegg attacks on the poor and vulnerable, these people are now asking you the people of Renfrewshire to give them your vote.
Example 3 – The Paisley Daily Express recently revealed that people with Learning difficulties who use our Day Centres are having their allowance of £2/week stopped and they are also now being forced to pay for what was previously free transport.
I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

Oh Dear, Woolfie Kelly the suburban socialist and his plans to derail Mackay's election juggernaut from the safety of his sofa, is coming off the rails.
is this your excuse Terry for not going out and working for the socialist revolution?
Parts 1 and two collapsed in a sea of apathy, any Tory budgets you care to support on the long march to Avanti Poplo?

This blog is read by approx. 500 people every week so by the time the election is on us that will be approx. 3,500 to 4,000 people, not earth shattering I admit but it gives me a wee bit of comfort.
Talking about support for the Tories, I noticed at the full council meeting there were about a dozen occasions where members were asked to vote and on every occasion the SNP, Libdems and the sole Tory voted together. There is a huge history of this voting behaviour in Renfrewshire council and we will make sure the electorate know about it.
