FIRST Minister Nicola Sturgeon has been urged to “intervene” in Glasgow’s budget as the city faces a shortfall of around £100 million.All the political parties can put forward their proposals to balance the budget and say where they would find the savings needed.The Labour group on the council has said it will not be proposing a budget, stating it will not take part in a process that imposes more cuts.
They want a pledge to “support the city council to ensure that the budget provides adequate resources to support our schools and our children’s education”.Redmond said: “This shameful budget is nowhere near enough for our city. We would be forced to choose between areas of equal, desperate need. “On Wednesday, our councillors will highlight the impact of devastating cuts if no action is taken to increase funding to councils.
