The entire Labour group on Aberdeen City Council was suspended following the 2017 local elections after entering a coalition with the Conservatives. They have been banned ever since, and party top brass previously said their suspensions would continue until 2022. However, the group were handed a boost by new Scottish Labour leader Anas Sarwar who praised their efforts in the Town House and said he views them as “Labour colleagues”. Now the Scottish Parliamentary Labour Group (SPLP) has written to the party’s executive committee calling for the suspensions to be lifted.
