It's true !

With Dundee City Council almost certain to be SNP - led by Monday night, Fife is about to be surrounded by SNP run councils.

To our South we have Edinburgh City Council where the SNP are in a ruling coaltion, and in West Lothian the SNP are running the council with the help of a small group of hospital campaigners.

To our West the SNP recently took over Stirling Council from Labour.

To our North and West - Perth and Kinross is SNP run with the help of their coalition partners and now it's on the cards that to our North, Dundee will be in the grasp of the SNP as of 30th March 2009.

Fife Council remains firmly in the hands of the SNP, again with the help of our partners.

In all of these councils Labour are playing second or even third fiddle to an SNP tune ... and long may that continue !!!
