Labour and Conservative councillors last night agreed an unlikely alliance to form the administration for a Scottish council. It is believed to be the first time in recent memory that Labour and the Conservatives have formed a two-party coalition. East Dunbartonshire Council will be a Labour-Tory coalition with Labour's Rhondda Geekie as leader and the Tories' Billy Hendry as deputy.
It seems the British will do anything to hang on to power.
