HUMZA Yousaf has attacked Labour's “cynical politics” after North Lanarkshire council U-turned on proposed cuts to leisure facilities just…
Following backlash among the community, Labour released a statement backtracking on the decision.Asked for his response to the attack from the Labour council at a by-election campaign event in Blantyre on Tuesday, Yousaf said: “Well, it’s incredible that they somehow managed to blame the SNP despite the fact that they've had an increase in their revenue budget.
“My message is very clear just as the communities of North Lanarkshire and the SNP in North Lanarkshire have managed to force a U-turn out of Labour, we can do the same here in this council area. Sarwar told journalists on Tuesday he understood the anger and frustration of the affected communities but said councillors were being forced to take “really difficult decisions”.
“And I think it’s high time that councils across the country, regardless of political affiliation, stand up and fight for the local communities and demand a fair deal.”
