Following on from attempts by SNP Councillors to have one of their colleagues removed as a candidate fresh evidence of turmoil within the ranks of Inverclyde SNP has surfaced.
This time the candidate in focus is the little known Professor Alex de Ruyter who is standing in Inverclyde North.
An anonymous press release has been issued, clearly by someone within the SNP, claiming that the "SNP candidate for Ward 3 Inverclyde North is actually an Ozzie who works in England."
Mr de Ruyter is described as an SNP apparatchik with no connection to Greenock. The press release claims that he only joined the SNP within the past year and has been parachuted into the constituency by friends in the party.
It says that Mr de Ruyter lives and works in Cantebury in England and only commutes north to establish visibility and campaign in Inverclyde North.
If - and I have no reason to doubt it - Mr de Ruyter does live and work in the South of England it would interesting to know how he intends to discharge his council duties if he is elected on 3 May.
Perhaps the answer lies in the SNP's manifesto where they talk about streaming Council meetings over the Internet?
The voters of Inverclyde North deserve to know the answer.

The problem for the SNP in Inverclyde North is not Alex. He has a brain and is working hard.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is boy blunder Math Campbell-Sturgess. Mr McMillan MSP is his best pal. Believe me - I'm talking from experience!
AND HOW DID YOU COME ACROSS A PRESS RELEASE FROM THE SNP
ReplyDeleteTalking about fighting ,would you like to comment on the allegation that SNP candidate for ward 6 John Crowther tried to headbutt one of your colleagues last night in Cathcart Street.
ReplyDeleteI witnessed that incident but I assumed Mr Crowther was just photographing men at random. I'd no idea from his aggressive manner that he could possibly be a candidate
ReplyDeleteMr McMillan has been sending out a newsletter using the post office. He gets it all wrong again. Distributing a newsletter during a local election campaign results in junk mail like that getting put straight in the bin. Bad timing from Boy Blunder Senior.
