I see that hot on the heels of West of Scotland SNP MSP Stuart McMillan, Inverclyde's Liberal Democrats are suggesting that the former Greenock Academy site could be used for a new primary school or schools when the current two-year lease to Shed Media comes to an end.
I find this so bizarre.
For the first time in our history a prime time national television show - 'Waterloo Road - is being filmed in Inverclyde and rather working towards retaining this excellent opportunity for our local area for as long as possible, all the SNP and Lib Dems want to talk about is what we will do with the site when Shed Media move out! So much for giving the cast and crew of 'Waterloo Road' a warm Inverclyde welcome.
Even more strange is the suggestion from both Mr McMillan and the Lib Dems that the site could be used for a new building for Ardgowan Primary School, less than a month after the Council's Education and Lifelong Learning Committee UNANIMOUSLY approved plans for a multi-million pound refurbishment of the existing Ardgowan Primary School, with work due to start in July 2013.
It seems that again the Lib Dems and now also their friends in the SNP are playing politics with our children's education. This is nothing short of disgraceful.
When are these people going to learn?
