Conservative Councillors are delivering for Argyll & Bute

I was joined by my fellow Conservative Councillors in Kilmory today as we discussed at length the numerous challenges facing Argyll and Bute. Ferry sailings, road networks, education and the SNP's late single farm payments were all mentioned.

With the SNP hammering local authority spending and cutting our budgets, challenges in delivering services will become more prevalent. Despite this climate of cuts from the separatists, Conservative Councillors are delivering for Argyll & Bute. This includes extra funding for the Tarbert and Lochgilphead Regeneration Fund, more funding for infrastructure and and increase in roads winter maintenance resources across Argyll.

As ever my fellow Conservatives and I will continue to fight non stop to make sure our rural constituency is not sidelined by this increasingly urban and separatism obsessed over centralising Scottish Government.
