The SNP's 'payroll vote' is out in force over the Edinburgh bin strike, but what they won't tell you is that these strikes are about the refusal of SNP ministers to fully fund a pay increase to council workers.
Even though the same SNP ministers fully funded a 5.2% pay increase for all councillors across Scotland - on top of a 4.2% pay rise last year (2021).
Maybe Nicola Sturgeon would like to explain why Scotland's council workers are being treated so much less favourably than elected councillors?
So let me get this right in Glasgow it absolutely IS Susan Aitken’s fault whenever the bins aren’t dealt with properly BUT in Edinburgh it ISN’T the local Governments fault at all because………
