Glasgow’s Strike is Actually a Labour’s Toddler Tantrum against SNPs


"Thousands of council workers today took part in a one-day strike, causing disruption to schools, rubbish collections and ferry services.
Up to 200,000 local authority employees across Scotland were expected to take part in the 24-hour walk-out. The dispute, over a 2.5% pay offer, left schools closed, bins left unemptied, day care and sports centres shut, and libraries closed

While pay is the mask behind which labour is attacking the SNPs represented by First Minister Alex Salmond - especially after their historical winning in the last election in Glasgow East, which left Labour shocked - I think this strike is the first of a series of Labour tantrums that we will be watching from now on!
