It is sad to see Scottish Labour, which I think *imagines* itself as a progressive party, parroting last week's Tory attack memes. There's much in this that's downright disinformation and some of it is demonstrably false

If you fall into the old trap of trying to out-Tory the Tories, it will probably work out the same way as it did before and concede you vote share to... the Tories!
Honestly, they could have just sat this one out, at no particular loss to themselves, by saying "this is a local matter for local councils to decide, and for voters to therefore decide at the ballot box. Instead they've picked this shrill, centralised, disingenuous approach
Guys. Come on! Get over yourselves and get over the "Any idea, however bad, is a good idea so long as we can try beating the SNP & Greens with it". That's so 2014.
That tweet links to a Scotsman article. About a Tory motion attacking and trying to derail the policy... Quite literally doing the Tories work for them here. Well done 👏👏👏
