Labour Candidate Graeme Morrice reported to Police for alleged offences under the Public Bodies Corrupt Practices Act, Labour campaign mired in sleaze















Dear All

At a special meeting of West Lothian Council on Thursday 8th April, Labour Councillors learned that Council Chief Executive, Alex Linkston, had reported two of their Members to Lothian and Borders Police, for alleged offences under the Public Bodies Corrupt Practices Act.

The names of the two Labour Councillors are Willie Dunn and Graeme Morrice.

Graeme Morrice is the Labour Parliamentary Candidate for Livingston who replaced Jim Devine.

Allegations against Dunn and Morrice were assessed against West Lothian Council’s Anti-Fraud and Corruption Policy and this led to the Chief Executive calling in the Police.

Given the serious of the allegations it would be incredible that as Labour got rid of the former sitting MP Jim Devine for alleged criminal fraud, he should be replaced by a man who is now under investigation by the Police for alleged false accounting.

It is also understood that further allegations are being prepared against the two, relating to their involvement in Council “arms length companies” when they controlled the Council in West Lothian.

In Glasgow, there has been a similar call for investigation into what are called Aleo’s set up by the Labour controlled Glasgow City Council because of concerns regarding how jobs and contracts have been given to Labour Party members, relatives, friends and Labour donors.

Councillor Gordon Beurskens said;

“The staggering abuse of process within this Council when under Labour control was disgraceful, and there are those who have sought to pillory my colleagues and I for scrutinising and exposing it. They have singularly failed, and there will be more to come”.

Now that Labour Party Candidate Graeme Morrice is facing Police investigation, he will have to be replaced as a candidate.

The Scottish Labour Party campaign is now tainted with these corruption allegations.

Labour Party Candidate Graeme Morrice’s political career to be MP for Livingston is effectively dead and the Labour Party will have to move quickly.

If they don’t act with haste, people will be asking questions of why is Morrice acceptable as a Labour candidate and Devine not?

When both were reported to the Police for financial corruption while in elected public office!

The Scottish Labour Party campaign is in serious trouble.

Yours sincerely

I understand that the Hollie Greig case is about to blow up in their faces next week, too.

Rense radio will be covering the story. Keep the pressure on them!
