Glasgow Labour Council of shame on course to destroy a near £1 billion joint agency providing frontline health care and social work across Glasgow


















Dear All

The Glasgow Labour Council of shame has hit the headlines yet again.

Glasgow’s problem is that the place is stuffed with incompetents, people who can’t or won’t do their jobs properly.

The latest gaffe centres over the imminent collapse of a near £1 billion joint agency providing frontline health care and social work across Glasgow.

Gordon ‘free dinners’ Matheson can’t get the Council to engage properly with the Glasgow and Clyde NHS Health board.

This means that the Community Health Care Partnerships could end up being dismantled after four years of planning, time, money and effort all wasted.

The Labour Council of shame has hit on an idea; pass the buck to the SNP Government.

Unoriginal, lacking in imagination and cheap but everyone knows this is the Labour Council of shame’s problem.

They have to come up with a solution.

Nicola Sturgeon said;

“This ultimately remains a matter for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Glasgow City Council and they need to come to a workable solution together.”

Let us see how professional the Labour Council of shame is as it is forced to confront the reality of work but not just work, competent work.

This should set the bells ringing at ‘free dinners’ Matheson’s chambers where an astonishing lack of talent among Labour Councillors makes a solution problematic.

Having gone crying to the SNP Government and Sir John Arbuthnott, the former chairman of Greater Glasgow’s NHS board, to attempt to break the impasse, they are in trouble.

It seems that the Community Health Care Partnerships are heading on to the rocks and when it hits it will be squarely the fault of the Glasgow Labour Council of shame.

Glasgow Labour letting Glasgow people down is nothing new but the scale of a near £1 billion agency hitting the buffers is a disaster for them.

The Glasgow Labour Party seems to have no problem trying to wring money out of a quango for jollies and jobs but that really is as far as their expertise goes.

We have all heard of New Labour and Old Labour but let us prepare for ‘thick’ Labour; they are the ones driving the Community Health Care Partnerships on the rocks.

I suspect we might be hearing about this story continuously as the collapse beckons.

Glasgow Labour is to blame; see what happens when you stuff Glasgow City Council with Labour Party members, family friends and associates.

The political equivalent of too much inbreeding concurs!

Huh Gordon Matheson, God knows why this man was elected as labour leader..hes a disgrace
He cant even answer straight forward questions about one of his crony labour councillors and why she is still in office whilst under investigation.
That whole labour administration is rotten to the core down there and its about time they got rid of the lot of them.
They all scratch each other backs and dont give a dam about the real people of Glasgow.
Steven Purcell got out at the right time but look at the muppets left behind who are just making the whole council worse.
Questions now being asked down there are "why are labour councillors under serious investigations still allwoed to hold office and hold "other" obligations whilst under investigations for serious "alleged" crimes.
A council employee was recently suspended from her post for serious allegations, why hasnt the councillor been done similra.
Mr Laird, i would hope that you might be able to dig something up on this.
If you have my e-mail address on your records, let me know and i will dish all i have for you and your readers.
Closed doors down in that dungeon they call chambers...should be the gas chambers for those morons who profess to run this city

I may not have chosen the actual words used by 'Running on Ether', but I cannot fault his/her sentiment.
