Although our survey is totally unscientific, we feel there has been a fairly good response. There was a rush of responses after we published our Dave Anderson suspended story.
A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the survey. There were a total of 168 responses to the survey. Of these, two gave totally duplicate answers and they were immediately next to each other so we are excluding one of the entries.
These results make interesting reading because it seems the vast majority of participants actually voted in May’s elections. Interestingly almost 100% felt let down by the SNP’s about turn on the ill-fated trams.
