What’s the Point? Independent Thinking & the Tin Flute Dictator
On this week, it’s just Greg & Gerry and that means no filters, no party lines, and no holding back.
We’re diving into the idea of independent candidates both at Holyrood and local council level and asking the question:
What would happen if an Independent actually led the council?
Could that finally break the grip of the party machines?
We also shine a satirical light on the local press, council coverage, and what really happens behind the scenes when party loyalty is rewarded over public service.
And of course, we couldn’t resist a few digs at the current “tin flute dictator” running North Lanarkshire… you know who we mean.
Expect sharp laughs, serious questions, and more than a few uncomfortable truths.
