The choice is clearly SNP or a coalition

-

Across West Lothian the SNP are the only party fielding enough candidates to run the council.

After the election Labour and Tories can only try to cobble together a Tory/Labour council.

So, this election is a clear choice between an SNP-run council or a Tory/Labour coalition.

SNP want our communitie­s to have a new experience of local government as active participan­ts and problem solvers. Our first actions will be to listen to your views and this dialogue will shape the detail of how we will bring control of budgets and services closer to local communitie­s. Everything SNP do will be focused on delivering equality, fairness and social justice.

SNP will ensure local people have the ability to influence and plan a range of the local services which affect their communitie­s as we work together to make West Lothian a fairer, more equal and prosperous community.
