SCOTTISH SOCIALISTS LAUNCH SERVICE TAX AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT MANIFESTO

PRESS CONFERENCE

MONDAY 14 APRIL AT 11.30 A.M.

GLASGOW FILM THEATRE
ROSE STREET, GLASGOW


On Monday 14 April the Scottish Socialist Party will announce further details of their plans to scrap the council tax and replace it with the Scottish Service Tax.

They will also announce their candidates for the local council elections in Scotland. The SSP plans to field a record number of candidates for local council elections this year, challenging New Labour in its heartlands.

The SSP already has several councillors and looks forward to winning a significant number of seats when we have proportional representation for local government elections.
