Commenting on the launch of Pat Lally's campaign for the
Cathcart by-elections an SNP spokesperson said:
"The future of the
Victoria Infirmary is central to this campaign but Pat Lally is a
sideshow.
"Only the SNP can beat Labour in Cathcart. It is a two horse
race and anyone who votes for Mr Lally risks letting Labour squeeze back in,
which would be the worst possible result for the Victoria
Infirmary.
"The SNP is best placed to beat Labour and best placed to
fight for accident and emergency and other services at the Victoria
Infirmary." |
