Jeremy Corbyn says SNP government has ‘quadrupled’ Tory austerity for council budgets

SCOTTISH Nationalists have “quadrupled” Tory austerity in council budgets, Jeremy Corbyn said on a visit to Glasgow at the weekend.

The Labour leader met volunteers working with foodbanks, toy donation appeals and credit unions in the south-west of the city.

Joined by Scottish Labour leader Richard Leonard and local Westminster candidate Matt Kerr, Mr Corbyn said only a general election would offer Scots the chance to change society.
