What Glasgow (and Rutherglen) needs is fewer cars on the road, and better walking, cycling and public transport infrastructure,” he said.</p> <p>“Loads to criticise the SNP on but this opportunistic nonsense.”</p> <p>The SNP’s Glasgow council leader also hit out at the video. Susan Aitken said: “Anas Sarwar is meant to be a Glasgow MSP but you’d be hard pushed to know it. </p> <p>“Every year, budget consultations tell us Glaswegians would like to see folk from outside the city who use Glasgow’s services make a contribution to their cost.
