Leadership By Example In Glasgow

As per the Evening Times, it appears that some Glaswegian councillors have a wee bit of reluctance paying their council tax bills:

"More than a third of Glasgow’s councillors have been rapped for failing to pay council tax, new figures show.

Over the past two years, 27 councillors have been sent reminder notices advising that they had fallen behind with payments.

The figures, obtained by Freedom of Information laws, show that 10 councillors had to be reminded to pay their council tax in 2013-2014 and 11 failed to make payments the following year.

So far this year – in four months – six councillors out of 75 have been sent reminder notices by the local authority."

This does not bode well for the finances of a country that wishes to become independent and manage its own affairs without subsidy from England.
