Read his 2012 pledge

I note Gary Robinson’s claim ‘I did save Westside schools – and here’s how’ (SN, 26/04/17). I would just like to ask him to elaborate on what part the statutory FIVE YEAR MORATORIUM the Scottish Government introduced on school closures had to do with keeping Aith School open?

I was rather under the impression that is what spiked the SIC plans on rural school closures.

Further to that, I must enquire what happened to his 2012 manifesto pledge on social house building: “New-build in Lerwick must be matched in rural areas such as Walls and Aith where demand is strong.”

We have a new builds in Lerwick, plans for 300 dwellings, but at Westside Shetland, none at all!

These are a few of the questions I am asked on Westside doorsteps, also your pledges to resist Viking Energy, and your fighting for more transparent council.

I could go on, but I feel people should read your 2012 pledges. It is a more eloquent testament to the truth than I could give.
