EXCLUSIVE: It is understood the SNP-led council will not now send a delegation across the Atlantic at a time of huge pressure on local services.
Cash-strapped Glasgow City Council has pulled the plug on a £7,000 "junket" to New York after an outcry.
But despite the acute financial pressures the council planned to send four people to the Big Apple next month. “At a time when vital frontline services are already on their knees and facing unprecedented cuts, every councillor and every official should be working to protect those services not flying around the world all expenses paid.”
'I'm delighted that pressure from trade unions, the Glasgow Labour Group, and Glaswegians across the city have forced the SNP to back down. They should focus on the day-to-day matters."
