In three years, the SNP administration has added just ONE project to North Ayrshire’s £331 million capital programme. Labour delivered schools, homes & growth projects—SNP have stalled progress!

Not a single council house added to the Council's House building programme in three years under SNP leadership. Labour led the most ambitious house-building programme—SNP has left communities waiting.

Can you spot the difference? We Can't.

The SNP used to ask us to judge them on their record in Education. But with the Attainment Gap widening, SNP Cllrs in North Ayrshire joined forces with the Tories to cut teachers, School Crossing Patrollers and Music Tuition instead of investing in our children's education.

[North Ayrshire Labour @NAyrshireLab]

As a former Head-Teacher Cllr Mary Hume knows first hand the importance of investing in our children education. Cutting teachers and cutting school crossing patrollers will do nothing to help our children get ahead

[North Ayrshire Labour @NAyrshireLab]

North Ayrshire Council is an SNP-TORY Alliance. Where they join forces to block good policy proposals so they can cut services instead.

[North Ayrshire Labour @NAyrshireLab]

Teachers, School Crossing Patrollers and more all cut in this SNP-TORY Budget.

We offered a budget which would have prevented these cuts but the SNP chose to do a deal with the Tories first.

This vital facility provides life-changing opportunities for young people, helping them develop skills, confidence, and a love for the outdoors.

[North Ayrshire Labour @NAyrshireLab]

ICYMI: North Ayrshire Labour officially rejects the SNP's proposed savage cuts! Our Labour Councillors won't back any budget that slashes vital services or introduces harmful charges like town centre parking fees.

North Ayrshire Labour Councillors will always put our communities first. We won't back the SNP and their proposed cuts.
