Steven 'bin laden' Purcell steps down as head of Glasgow City Council, it is 'business as usual' unfortunately for Glaswegians












Dear All

The world of Glasgow politics took an interesting turn as Steven ‘bin laden’ Purcell, the Labour leader of Scotland's biggest local authority, Glasgow City Council, has stepped down.

In a special meeting of the Glasgow Labour Council of shame he announced his resignation.

He should have went years ago after the Chyrnside Community Initiative scandal were ordinary people were put in fear of their lives after Labour Glasgow Council allowed a crime gang to take over a community centre.

The Labour Council of shame buried their heads in the sand as killings and violence flared in the North of the City.

The reason given for Purcell stepping down is that he is suffering from stress and exhaustion.

The temp replacement is Purcell's deputy, Jim Coleman; he declared that his resignation was a "sad day" for Glasgow.

I don’t see ordinary people flocking to the City Chambers to ask him to reconsider given the state of Glasgow under the ‘reign of hell’ that is Glasgow Labour.

Coleman said;

"What's important now is that the people of Glasgow know that, as far as the council is concerned, it's business as usual”.

Even at the Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT)!

Coleman added;

"The administration will continue to provide leadership for the city as a whole”.

Leadership!

Is that a sick joke, the city is in chaos and they still cannot get the rubbish collection dealt with in an appropriate manner?

His spokesman, Jack Irvine said the former leader had been "under enormous pressure".

Given the amount of jobs and infrastructure he and the Labour Council of shame have destroyed in Glasgow, was it the weight of guilt?

Or is he considering standing for Westminster?

Labour MP Tommy McAvoy seat is vacant.

Expect a miracle soon!

Finally, remember Chyrnside, remember Steven ‘bin laden’ Purcell abandoned the people of Glasgow.

Yours sincerely
