City Council

They’ll spend our money but not theirs

Edinburgh’s Labour party are extremely happy about spending taxpayers money in trying to oust new SNP councilor Steve “thug” Cardownie from everything Edinburgh. The hapless Lord Provost Lesley Hinds is diving around Edinburgh attending everything down to the opening of a packet of crisps to ensure that Cardownie is left without a function to attend and hours and hours of the Legal Department’s time is being spent in trying to get back at their traitor.

However when it comes the using Labour party funds to reprint their newsletter - no bloody way!

More than 40,000 flyers featuring Councillor Cardownie were sent to homes in Leith.

The constituency party newsletter was printed in mid-October, a week before his switch.

The obvious message to the good community charge payers of Edinburgh is that Teflon Don and his crew will be happy to spend public funds on ousting Cardownie, but reprint the Labour newsletter, Nah!
