Lab and Tory councillors vote against the #Vow : #RedTories The #Labour-#Tory #coalition at last night’s meeting of Stirling Council voted down SNP councillors Graham Houston and Scott Farmer’s motion - which noted acceptance of the result of the referendum, welcomed the establishment of the Smith Commission and called for the council to encourage community engagement for the delivery of new powers - has been described as “deeply disappointing” by local SNP MSP Bruce Crawford. Labour and Tory councillors voted through their own partisan motion – with no specific mention of the Vow, which indicates that the principle set out by Glasgow Labour MP Willie Bain - that Labour will not vote for SNP motions - seems to be alive and well in Scottish local government. Mr Crawford said that the people of Stirling deserved better than this. snp.org/media-centre/news/2014/oct/lab-and-tory-councillors-vote-against-vow
