SNP Councillor Jim MacLeod was the talk of the Council again today.
Rumour has it that Jim and his good lady Sylvia are set to stand as the SNP's 'dream team' in Ward 1 at next year's Council elections. I am not sure how Jim would cope if Sylvia was elected and he wasn't!
It seems that Robert Kyle - who stood as an independent in 2007 - is set to stand for the SNP in Ward 2. They really must be struggling for candidates.
The word is that ex Labour Party member Jim Watson will be standing in Ward 4 in place of former SNP Group Leader Keith Brooks. Keith announced at today's special Council meeting that he will not be standing next year.
I was told by a number of people that the SNP are putting up 10 candidates in total, 4 more than in 2007 when they won 5 seats. Clearly they are hoping to take advantage of the collapse in the Lib Dem vote.
