SNP - Abusing Public Trust
I haven't heard back from North Lanarkshire Council yet, but Pablo Shankley has been in touch (thanks again Pablo!) with a breakdown of councillors' pay in NLC which suggest the Convener of Housing is paid an enhanced salary of £34, 254 a year.
Now senior councillors have additional responsibilities which is why they're regarded as full time roles and paid a much higher salary than part-time, backbench councillors who receive £19,571 a year (@ £16 an hour).
But in addition to being the SNP's Convener of Housing in North Lanarkshire, Cllr Stubbs has a second, part-time job with a local SNP MSP (Fulton McGregor) and a third job with Police Scotland.
So what does all that add up to - my guess would be well in excess of £70,000 a year from the public purse.
More to the point how does Cllr Stubbs find the time to do all these jobs effectively and who, if anyone, is looking out for the public interest?
Certainly not the SNP since lots of other SNP councillors, SNP MSPs and SNP MPs have been gaming the system as well.
More to follow.
