Independent 1. Largest council in Scotland; historic shipbuilding on the River Clyde. Some working class parts of the city are infamously poor but give a misleading impression about the rest.
There is a byelection on 5 December in Partick East/Kelvindale (held by the Scottish National Party). Labour held seats in Drumchapel/Anniesland, Maryhill and North East wards at byelections on 21 November.
