SCOTTISH Labour have suspended a councillor embroiled in a racism row as an investigation was launched.
Glasgow councillor Audrey Dempsey is at the centre of a storm over her offensive social media posts and her intense focus on “anti-white racism”, which she claims is on the rise.
She also liked a tweet which said that “white lives don’t matter to the political class, media or justice system”, and another which spoke about the “ agenda”. Dempsey represents Springburn and Robroyston, the former area being home to 11% of Glasgow's African population, according to a 2014 study by Manchester University.
An SNP source added: “This pattern of behaviour raises serious concerns about the attitudes and views of Councillor Dempsey.”
